Computer which resemble H/PCs in more ways than one....

Parts?!?!? It's unique!!!! One-off!

Got a new friend, the Traveller 3745.. It's awesome :-P

Wanted to add: I'm installing AIM and IE 6 on it as we speak.... It's got Win98SE on it and downloading w/e SP's it has.... Possibly I'll go Linux, but first I need a HDD in it larger than a singular GB :-P

Not necessarily...

You can get well more than that machine can run in 1gb.

I got it for 5 things:
MP3s, Mobile Internet, Command and Conquer, Starcraft and Word Processing :-P
I have nothing installed but updates and AIM and I'm using more than 3/4 the available space! I already cut most the fat off of Win98 but I need less fat then still!

Try LitePC, it can reduce Windows 98 down to 4mb... (of course, that probably includes IE6 and WMP9, as in being gone...)

yeah you mentioned somewhere you found it.
ebay? hey... can you contact me first... my email address is on my site..

I have bought a NEC READY 120LT and a Toshiba Libretto 50m.

The NEC came with both the cd and floppy external drives. The battery was kaput, so I went to BATTERIES PLUS and bought individual cells, split the original case, de-soldered the old connections , resoldered the new batteries and glued the battery case back together. Cost? ,<$40.00.

The little unit is great for when I travel on my motorcycles. The DSTN screen leaves a lot to be desired. I'm running Win 98 se, light, on it. I also have a 2nd hard drive loaded with VECTOR LINUX 5, that I am playing around with.

The Libretto 50m was a "Japan only" touch screen model. It was showing great promise, Till It Died on the 3rd boot. The unit came out of China, so I'm not very optimistic about getting a replacemant, or my money back, I guess I'll Ebay it as a parts machine.

how sad.
no idea at all, what the fault could be?

Parts? Will you consider a trade?? :-)

I just got my Qpid (120LT clone) and it's wonderful.. except for the DSTN screen! Bleh! I havn't seen more submarining since the cold war! Mine came without a battery, I'm in need of some guts so I can do my own replacement :-)

I just ordered a new set of batteries (total 4000mAh) for the Traveller, it can fit both at once :-) $35 shipped!!! BNIB NRFB NO-DOA etc etc wonderful deal :-)

I personally dont buy anything from any countries other than good old USA and Canada.... With certain exceptions (cheap-o USB hubs and 3.5->2.5" ATA adaptors come from anywhere cheapest)

When I get my CF reader back, I'll show you why you dont buy HDDs second hand from an unknown source....

In the meantime, whomever guesses within 5 of the number of bad sectors on my 'new' Toshiba 8.5mm 3.2GB drive gets $.50 Paypal :-P

Keep in mind, it *was* booting in the recent past, just 6 months before it was packed up and then disassembled for my Traveller.... The machine it came in was no micro, I was surprised when I found it. It stopped working, I took it apart, and C:\>SCANDISK C: and here I am :-)

Everybody gets 2 guesses, must be in the same post. I find it amazing it still powers up :-P

k...
first guess is 5,000
second is 10,000

20,000
30,000

How about this: 300mb?

considering that the drive should have ~6710886 sectors, my two guesses will be
a million
1,500,000

There are 790,000 sectors.

Just saw a Fujitsu Stylistic LT on eBay for $175 BIN. Not bad - about the size and weight of my MP800.
