> I suggest looking on eBay for an old laptop. By old, I'm talking
Thanks for the suggestions. After seeing this one, I realized I have an
old HP Pavilion N3110, 32mb RAM running Win98, sitting behind the desk,
quite literally just collecting dust.
I found the power cord and a serial port IR tower. After a couple
tries, I got it to boot up. I was able to download the bricxcc on the
desktop machine and then transfer it, via a CD, to the old laptop. Ran
the setup; plugged in the serial tower; bingo.
This machine now has a new purpose in life. And it can play CDs while I
work in the confines of the basement!
Thanks again,
Rafe
