Hi Robert,

It was Emily who bought the T23. I missed out on the recent T40-line sale, which
was nearly over by the time I found out about it. I think I'll wait until
another sale like that rolls around -- hopefully not too far off in this economy.

Why the 1400x1050 screen ? Won't that higher res make all text and icons smaller
and harder to see, absent the use of something like LiquidView, which is a
Win-only utility ?
