No, not really.  I need to get a conversion kit for the propane furnace so I
can hook up a 40-pound tank to the system so Felix and I don't freeze to
death over the winter again.  Being out where I am, it's hard to get the
motorhome into town every week to fill up the small internal propane tank.

Hey, that works.  I'm reclaiming the dinette table by getting rid of this
desktop I have on it; just bought a nice HP Elitebook 6390p laptop for $100
including shipping and tax.  Waiting for it to arrive so I can have a lot
more room in the motorhome again.

On an on-topicizer: with the computer shuffling that will be going on when I
get the laptop, I'll be moving the BBS to a very tiny HP "ultra small form
factor" desktop.  It's literally over half of the size of the current BBS
machine so that will make it easier for me to tuck the BBS away in the
corner of my ham shack.  It doesn't need much power or anything these days.

As I've said in here before, if Slackware can compile on the RPi 3 and I can
get a DOS emulator working on it, I'd move the BBS to that too.
