Should I go back to my old PC AT running PC-DOS 3.3? There is something about those old clicky 84-key keyboards that the scissor switches in today's laptops don't measure up to. Call me mad, but I'm seriously giving thought about getting an IBM 5170 (6 MHz 80286, 11.5" monochrome CRT).
I'm not really fond of OS X or Windows, so not having access to the latest apps is nothing, as I don't use anything but TextEdit and Safari anyway. I word process like mad and visit BBSes. That's about it. I cannot get used to laptops, no matter how big/clear/fast the screen is. It just doesn't work for me, so losing a bit of power or screen space is no big deal either.
