Speaking of hardware, Where is the best resource for older items these days? Ones that still have an on board serial and parallel port? Getting mine repaired is becoming more and more challenging with the Yamaha thinkpad I hoped to use as a fall back apparently in worse shape than I believed.

Oh that's interesting. I wonder what is the reason for is for that. Does it work OK? Do you have to be very careful about what RAM you use? Was tempted til I took out a ruler and remember how big 16" is. 40cm! Very happy with my 12" with all kinds of gui tweaks to cram everything in. Would maybe consider 13". $800 saved. Phew.
