Does anyone own, or has anyone at least seen, a Go Penpoint computer? I'd
love to have one.
If you haven't read the book _Startup_ by Jerry Kaplan then you might want
to. It is a great story about the Go! Corporation, innovators of
pen-based computing. It has many excellent insights into the hi-tech
business world and is overall a great read.
