Subj: 102 ORPHANED

Well, it has happened!  Something we knew was coming for a while, but the  
suprise is still there.  Tandy has discontinued production and sale of the  
venerable 100 line.  Yes, the Model 102 is now officially orphaned.  I stop for
a minute of respectful silence in recognition of the achievement the  100 line
has gained.  The computer that virtually coined the word "LAPTOP"  and created
an industry has entered it's "afterlife" after nearly 10 yrs of sales.  Name
any other computer with that kind of longevity.  Here's hoping Portables
everywhere are turned of for one moment in respect.
