Hi all,

I'm new to the site, having found it on a list of sites suitable for older computers. Currently signed on with my Toshiba Libretto and working my way about to get a feel for the place.

Nice to meet you all. Very Happy

Hello,

How long have your feet been missing?
Have you reported them missing?
Did you create missing feet posters?

Welcome to the site.
Enjoy your time here in our little community.

Hello,

Welcome to ClassicConnect! I hope you'll enjoy your stay here with us.

I'm jealous of that Libretto. I've always wanted one of those. The prices of them have skyrocketed in recent years unfortunately. Maybe someday...

Thank you everyone for the welcome!

I'll have to upload some photos of the Libretto once I've got one of the old digital cameras able to talk to it, or one of the older laptops that kick around here anyway.

It's a nice little machine anyway. Plan is to rebuild the battery at some point so that I can use it without being tied to a plug socket of some description. Wink

Which Libretto do you have? I have 3x 50CTs and one 70CT that has the 32MB RAM expansion. Runs Windows 2000 "okay-ish"

The last time I tried to use them about 6 years ago, I still had a few fully working batteries. Who knows if that's the case anymore.

As for websites, you could look at "retronetwork.net" which maintains a webring and some small lists of compatible sites. There's also the Sloop classic website directory, FrogFind, and Old'A'Vista.
