Well, Charles, I never thought that I would ever replace my desktop
with a TPad.  But, at this point, I have a tower that is seldom used
for other than receiving FAXs, scanning things, and such any more.  My
TPad A30p has almost everything I need except that I cannot attach my
HP SCSI-attached scanner to it.

I specifically opted for the A3x series because it is/was the only
model that would allow simultaneous CD and diskette.  I rarely use the
diskette any more, writing a CD-R/RW is acceptable and even desirable
since there is no longer a capacity concern.  But, there are still
times when there is just no substitute for the convenience of a
diskette.

I only wish there were upgradable components [e.g., the integrated
802.11b] that might make it last longer.

Cheers...
Carl
