yup. although my libretto was sold about 8 months ago (to some guy on
aol...ebay auction, was badly strapped for cash) i still miss its
usefulness and ability to be stuffed in my jeans pocket. in my opinion,
the librettos are still some of the most functionally cool toys out
there. i've gone through carpal-tunnel before (switched desks, 1/2" of
height difference gave it to me for a year) and it just plain sucks :/.

i hear that. fortunately, we traded an extra 21" sun trin for it. it's a
nice little p2/300 stuffed with ram and speedier than my desk machine
(held together by duct tape, voodoo, and bailing wire). :) the biggest
problem i've encountered with it it the weight factor. it's an 11 pound
monster and isnt fun to cart all over the place.
