Look at it this way since the Duo 280c is a 68k machine it's not much more
that a big address book with a internet connection and a few office
programs. But it gets the job done when you travel! If the job requires
presentations, and or a computer with alot of power I take a G3 or My Sony
Vaio. I prefer office 98 on my Mac's and Office 2000 on the Pc's. It makes
document sharing alot easier!
