Aha so the difference is found. The wallstreet leaves lots of room between my six-pack and the forward edge of my laptop. Well now all is understandable! On Oct 6, 2004, at 12:22 AM, Andrew F. wrote: The small machines, on the other hand, are quite comfortable to use on a tray table in coach,

I would rather have a 2300c than a Wallstreet. The 2300c was the lightest Apple laptop ever, and while incapable of running OS X, it IS capable of wireless internet and office productivity work in comfort. If someone made a module to replace the old Duo modem with a WiFi card, I'd even take a

I don't understand the logic behind this statement though. I honestly do not believe if somebody offered you a free Wallstreet OR a free Duo 280 (monochrome) you would take the Duo. You could not take both, and you could not sell the one that you take, and you had to keep it permanently and

What airline are you flying on??? I've never had trouble with any laptop (Compaq, IBM, or beloved Apple) on any airplane seat. Most tray tables not only fold out, but then also SLIDE forward. The Wallstreet fits fine (as did the leviathan iBook 366 I had). On Oct 5, 2004, at 10:17 PM, Andrew

If I couldn't sell it and it was the only machine I could have, that would be a very difficult choice since the 280 has no wifi possibility, and that is something I use frequently. If the choice was changed to a Wallstreet or a 2400c, I would grab the 2400c in a heartbeat. Andrew On 10/5/04
