Mr. Negroponte, Meet Mr. Dell

My search for an inexepensive, yet functional laptop for my travels to Europe came to an end yesterday, when I was loaned an old Dell Latitude C600 from an old employer, who rarely uses the thing. It requires some updating (PCMCIA cards for ethernet and wireless internet access; a USB splitter; and a new battery), but overall, is in wonderful shape and will serve me fine for the next five months. It's certainly not a MacBook Pro, but it's closer to one than it is to an XO.
