Mine falled apart several months after I bought it. First the power adapter, then the hard disk. I kept on using it, booting from the floppy! I loved that machine. But then the keyboard started to have problems, until the poor thing eventually stopped working. I have found the Palm to be a good replacement for my Quaderno. I can do all I need to do with it, and take it everywhere. So my Quaderno can rest in pieces. :) Christophe
