Then I think it is time for me to come "out-of-the-closet".  I wanted 
a laptop for the road; WEB, email and word processing.  I was standing 
in front of at least 15 laptops in Fry's in Vegas.  Two had the best 
display quality and one had every I/O there is.  That's the one I 
bought.  I never mentioned it to the OS/2 community because it is not 
IBM.

But now neither is the Think Pad.  So I will admit, it is Fujitsu. 
eCS installed, which is more than I can say for most of my desktops. 
It connects to the WEB both wired and wireless; built-in.  It treats 
my camera as a USB HDD.  And, it does not have a little joy stick in 
the middle of the KB.

In the late eighties I chose a PC over Apple because I did not want 
proprietary hardware.  I still don't.
