    There's something about the Windows 95/98 icons and display (and the way DOS games of that era) look that really stands out - they are -not exactly characterful- but are characteristic of that platform.

    Is that little nub on the side of the screen for controlling the pointer? With the L and R buttons on the outer shell it looks neat but also a bit cramp-tastic. How well doest it work?

    Also, anything salacious on the work emails? I do hope the owner of the Marks & Sparks tie was located. Was there any follow up? I NEED TO KNOW.

    I do rather like Windows 98's hi-colour icons.

    Yes, the pointer is the thing on the side of the screen. Its usable once you get used to it, but its a bit fiddly. I don't know why they didn't just put a 'trackpoint' type thing in the keyboard like most laptops.

    Unfortunately there was no follow up to the tie email. Looks like we'll never know if it was claimed from reception. The other emails on it weren't particularly interesting. There were a couple of HR announcements where the email body tells everyone to 'see the fax or notice board'. It also looks like someone was doing some work in Canada. And there was some stuff about chiropractors for horses.
