09DEC91 Seasons Greetings from Arizona! Club 100 has been indispensable in allowing my portable computer activity to really come alive. Particularly have benefited from your suggestion to join the club library. You were right Rick, the library has some really useful and expansive programs that are amazing and fun to use. My compliments to RB, in the event that he might see this message. Most recently I've plugged in a TS- DOS ROM - WOW. Adding a TPDD2 has revolutionized my personal computing program, and I have said GOODBYE to those migraines caused by hourslong exposure to that piercing, nonmelodic cassette interface. Well - I've spent the previous five months getting very familiar with my T- 102 and is time now to employ it in a MAJOR undertaking. My plans are to take inventories of my primary collections (ie. photographs, books/magazines, compact discs) and catalog them on diskette using my portable computer. I'm unsure of the "best" format to use in recording the pertinent information (such as where and when I took a photo, or the subject of a particular magazine article, etc). Considered using a classic outline replete with subheadings but, that format style seems better suited to organizing thoughts and/or actions. What sort of simple, effective options exist for accomplishing a useful reference work? Drawing upon your knowledge of portable computing, what would you use? I appreciate your pointing me in the "right" direction. Keith Ristuben
