Well, it finally happened. Our Windows 98 computer purchased in 1998 (we call her Bertha) has finally bitten the dust. She's was so old and slow it's not worth the money to diagnose and fix her problems.Unfortunately Bertha was the only computer we had hooked up so Walter could communicate to the outside world. There is a newer computer waiting in the wings, we just need to figure out how to get a modem going on that one.
In the meantime, Walter has pulled Renee out the closet. Renee is an old 8086 Toshiba laptop he purchased in 1988! No, you can't surf the web with Renee the way we think of today, but you can connect to the outside world and get email and news stories. That's Renee and Walter in the photo. The CRG monitor is even older - vintage 1984. Don't get too comfortable, Renee. Your days are numbered.

Glad Walter has Renee to fall back on! So what will be the name of the new "lady" once the modem connection is made?! :-)
