Just to clear an item up which seems to cause confusion on this group (and
confused me until a couple of days ago when I learned better....)

*EVERY* MP100 HAS THE 110 ROMs.

The MP100 is basically an Original MessagePad (OMP) with the 110 ROM inside
it.  (Don't know if there are other hardware changes; probably are, but
basically you can think of a MP100 either as an OMP with 110 ROMs, or as a
MP110 in an OMP case.  I *think*.....)

So when MacZone sez the MP100s it's selling (which is the one I just
bought, btw) are "upgraded" with the 110 ROMs, it's half true.  Every MP100
is "upgraded" with the 110 ROMs.  There is no such beast as a MP100 without
a 110 ROM... if it doesn't have a 110 ROM then it's an OMP not a MP110.

Why don't poor people incorporate? Then they'd be eligible for all kinds of 
subsidies, and wouldn't need welfare.
