re: empeg as a 20year old piece of equipment.

By my count I own 123456789 (nine) computers, ten counting the Empeg. Twelve! I just have to count two palm pilots. They each easily out power the first four computers, combined. Eight of those I consider obsolete. Most were bought in the last ten years. I don't even want to tally the cost. All of them, except for the MicroAce still work like new. The Ace suffers from too much tinkering.

The Empeg may just, for the useful life span, be one of the least expensive gadgets I've bought.

I'm not feeling screwed. Not at all. Just sad, that the Empeg didn't sell big.
