That would be the case for me if I could get a Linux laptop and Net
access in Boulder (somewhat doubtfull).  I have a laptop - an IBM
ThinkPad 701 - but it has DOS, OS/2, and Win3.1 on it.  I guess that's
enough to write code assuming I could get a PPP hookup for the week, but
I wasn't really planning on paying anything for net access.

A year ago, I bought another laptop HD on which to put Linux, because
IBM says the HDs are easily swappable, but I never could figure out how
to get it in!  the HD that came with it is sealed into a container case
that goes into the laptop, and I can't find another one for my other
HD!  IBM has never had a clue about it.  If anyone is familiar with IBM
laptop hardware, I'd appreciate discussing this with them.  I'd LOVE to
get it resolved!

That sounds great!  I think we are making progress, and we should make
some more soon.
