Ed, I'm just intrigued that as a NTLK List member you are a Cutlass owner.
I have fond memories of my '70 Cutlass with it's 350 Rocket engine -
unfortnately I had to let it go prior to getting my first Newton
MessagePad 100, but those were the days when I drove my Newt GREEN
Cutlass on the roads of NYC. I would have loved to have restored it as
a daily driver and had a MP2x00 installed to play my tunes thru or GPS
mapping but it was in bad shape as I did the Fred Flintstone thru the
rusted floor pan.
At least now I have one of the two. (my Trusty Troop of Newtons!)
Thanks for bringing back the memories - I understand your plight, just
to young and poor to consider what you are doing now...
