Just downloaded a .pdf file of all 26 AD&D 2nd Edition books! It's incredible! Meticulously scanned by someone who had WAY too much time, completely tabbed and organized for quick and easy access to all the stuff I used to have to thumb for hours to find. Slap this on an older laptop with Win95 on it, sell it as "The Dungeon Masters Tome" or some such nonsense. You can pick up older laptops prety cheap these days, can you not? Something with no Web access, nothing stronger than a regular old Pentium chip and 16mb of RAM?

I so want to do this!

I think so. You have to look around for them though, as PC Recycle in Lynnwood isn't as cool as it used to be...

RE-PC SODO area. The only problem is they turn over even old laptops very quickly. Go with EBay.

We have a 486 floating around somewhere, I think .. or maybe Chris' old P 133 - I'll ask him.

I hear that the EXTREMELY secluded PC Recycle in Kirkland is a bit better, but good luck finding it! Nah, if I do this it'll be through one of those "a friend knows a guy who's just gona toss his old laptop" deals...

That would be SO KEWL! I would forever be greatfull and junk :)

And hey, if you can use it to convince Chris to "downsize" out of some obsolete hardware he's lugging around, everybody wins! Now if we can just talk him out of the full copies and documentation for Windows 3.1 and Microsoft Works... he *knows* those are't coming back, right?
