Here's the thing, Dan... I read somewhere that one was made. Maybe it wasn't; maybe I read it off of another e-mail list like this one, where someone ELSE was "talking out the side of their neck"... but so what? Where else would I discuss something like this, on the Vintage list? I mean, it's on topic, it is pertinent, and it is an answer to a question. If it is a false-rumor, I am sure I am not the only person to give erronius information on this list... >They apparently never existed! Well at least no-one here has _ever_ >actually seen one in person. Yeah, "apparently"... Having never "actually seen one in person" does not really speak to their actual existence, does it? Many people had never seen a tablet-pc-style Powerbook until I found a few (the Freestyle Tablet PC, based on the Powerbook 5300-series). I never personally saw a VST Expansion Bay AC adapter for the 3400/Kanga, or a Powerbook 550c intil I recently acquired both. So since they did not exist before I saw+bought them, I guess I'm like the kid Billy Mumy played on the old "Twilight Zone" episode? >With the vast range of experience on this >list, I consider it highly unlikely such a thing existed without being >known to _someone_ here. In any case, even if they _did_ exist (which I >doubt), they are today unobtainable and therefore maybe you might not >want to continually tease folks in such a fashion. I am sure alot of things exist "on this earth and beyond" that none of us have ever seen. I am personally still looking for a Duo 230-based "Penlite" tablet PC, a Newer G3 500-series peocessor, and a Vertegri ImediaEngine V7. >Thank you, thank you, thank you for your co-operation!!! :-) Okay. Done. I'll let go. It's over. So.... What do we talk about NOW? Who saw a Powerbook Duo on last night's episode of Seinfeld?!? Craig W. Atlanta, GA Power corrupts.
