I know! And a 386 with TWO FDD's so you could copy stuff? WOW! LOL

Or, if you get Apple, it stays the same price, but gets better
each generation. :-)

Had a Dell laptop at a previous job. Had the docking station for it
so it was a 'true' desktop at work, but laptop on the go. I don't do
that now, because of limited bench space, and the fact that I use
the laptop more 'on the go' than at the bench... :-)

I'm setting up a Linux workstation for the bench, though, and
will have a full keybaord & monitor there. :-)
