 Yes, I've been getting a lot of crap on my mailbox just dealing with
your particular antics looking for a sparcbook. Can't you just take this
someplace else, i.e. dealing with the people directly, instead of trying
to hoard the offers, like someone mentioned in one of the previous
posts?

 I don't think you will be able to affor a SB period. As Ken Hansen
mentioned, maintaining and upgrading these little machines can get
rather pricey.  What if, for some reason, the AC adapter dies on you?
Will you shell out the $150 to Tadpole for a new one? 
Get a x86 laptop, install linux on it, play with it, be happy, and stop
flooding our mailboxes with your whinning, please...
