[vcf-midatlantic] Swap Meet Update

[Gregg Levine]

Hello!
Why Mike what are you selling? (Kidding, I looked at the entries.)

In my cases besides those examples of logic, I am trying to find a
very old by the standards of today, but certainly appropriate for this
list, handheld. It was designed either by, or for, the OEM behind
Seiko, sometime during the early part of the 1990s, about the time two
things happened, one was the sudden importance of being able to
collect data via handhelds, that of barcodes, and that those bounders
at Microsoft released their MSDOS6.22 to the embedded device market.
That market did nothing with that OS as they were waiting to evolve
for a different OS altogether. It would have been traveling with an
SDK for the methods, and even an appropriate laptop since the thing
used PCMCIA cards for storage of data.

I tried out one of them then, since I did not have the appropriate
laptop and cards, and code,  I wasn't able to hand it information to
run with it, but now the <BLEEPING!> thing is now I do. Including a
reason.

Jeffrey, I'm thinking that if someone, any someone, does have the
devices and wants to sell, I'm it, And the laptop with its software
and so-forth.
