JSHIN@HAMPVMS.BITNET (Pickled Twinkies) (11/27/90)
Hello! I couldn't resist sending this message. I just came upstair to my room after a long day at work, two hours of chorus rehersal, three hours of dinner preparation and dishwashing, and putting my contacts into the enzyme solution for a two-hour bath. BTW, I use Mac's at work. I came into my room to write a littel letter on my QX-10. I turned on the computer, still blind, and, behold, it finished booting before I even put my glasses on. Now, that's performance. (I did cheat: I had to clean the glasses first, but, at work, I can usually check my mailbox AND read all of the stuff by the time the sucker finishes...) -John, still slightly dazzled and very, very proud to be here. P.S. Who cares if my modem runs at 300 Baud? I can drive home and read all the messages here before the thingy at work boots and loads up the emulator. (A little exaggeration never hurts, but I stopped using my computer - not REALLY mine - as a terminal and just use a shabby old VT100 clone down the hall from my office. Will never happen with my - REALLY mine - QX-10!)
