It's $900 difference, for a faster CPU, +128mb SO-DIMM (not sure if separate chip), and +10gb disk. The last two items are about $100 each (...) (24 years ago, 23-Feb-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

| | | | | | Oops. I looked closely at my experiment with Marc Atkin's movie, "2001: A Lego Odyssey". It's not so easy to compress. The Sorenson 2 video codec does ruin the quality. Maybe it would improve with the professional package -- the basic codec suffers (...) (24 years ago, 23-Feb-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

People ask me why I drag out my laptop to listen to MP3s on the plane, when a CD player (or an MP3 player or minidisk player, Sony has one that is the size of a minidisk plus a very small (...)
