A brave experiment

The Archives Troll is about to embark on an excursion to the wilds of Texas on a mixture of business and pleasure. The business being the annual convention of the American Association of Law Libraries and the pleasure being a visit to my brother and family in Austin. As part of my drive to simplify my life I am trying to avoid bringing 2 laptops. Normally I would carry my trusty Powerbook G4 and my not so trusty (the optical drive stops working after a while) Alienware laptop. I can probably do every thing I need to do on the virus trap (Alienware) and it does have all the games that I will need, but I don't trust it. When I transitioned back to Apple it was through the Powerbook line and I have become very used to the fact that they are simple and utterly reliable machines. The flakyness of the windows world is what pushed me fully into the apple camp. But I will be brave and take only the Alienware machine with me. Wish me luck I think I will need it.

Pax,
