Gotta luv the data cassette tape. Portable storage, even fit in shirt pocket. 
It could have been worse, it could have been bulky 8-track :-)

  Tom, it gets better as I go back further in time. I had to use a cassette 
tape for storage with my TRS-80 - no floppy ;)

      LOL! Here we go again with the "dating game" :)
      My first "laptop" was this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Portable 
      It was really cool but weighed as much as sewing machine which was the 
term we gave it.

baggage on it since it was as large as my travel bag... monochrome green screen 
with a huge 10MB hard drive and ran hot enough to fry an egg.

Kaypro & WordStar?).

          I had a revolutionary idea technological in the early 90's... I 
called it WYGIWYM... What you get is what you MEAN.  I'da been a

            I'd pay a little more when they come out with the auto-install 
feature...

            Maybe one day - Auto-Everything.   Just take it out of the box and 
plug it in.  It figures out what to do where...  

            They can call it AIRverywhere

            FYI…………



            I’m hesitant to jump into UBNT Beta firmware for large scale 
deployment, lesson learned the hard way………  But the latest includes channel 
hopping and Auto channel.  I’ve had ongoing issues with random interference and 
every couple of weeks or so have had to change my frequencies on pretty much 
all my UBNT radios.  But I took the plunge with this new beta and it’s been 
SOLID for me for a week now.  I tried the channel hopping but it was too busy 
for me.  My noise floor was all over the place.  SUCKED and way too random for 
me BUT just doing a simple AUTO channel………….  Smooth as silk!  My interference 
is now GONE.  My throughput has increased and my noise floor went from an 
average -85 to a -95 to -100 average.  Running 5GHz on all links……..  I call 
this one a WIN!



            As I said, FYI.  Nothing but good on this UBNT Beta.  It’s about 
time!  J



            Just sharing.



            Me-
