I swear it was less than a foot drop. Maybe half a foot. Instead of bending over to set the laptop on the floor, I dropped the bag from about knee-level. THUNK!
So now I'm getting hard drive errors. So, yeah, I figured a Tandy laptop would have propriety software and hardware. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. The thing had a nice Dos-Shell. It looked something like
C:
AOL
DOS
DESKMATE
On the right side, it listed the files in the directory.
On the bottom there was an option to go directly to DOS 6.0 labeled "Command Prompt."
Oh well, my next project... in the distant future... is to get a Pentium I or II laptop and install Windows 3.11 and DoS 6.0 on it. :D
I guess I should know right now what the "Click of Death" means... I dropped another hard drive, an external 350MB one. That one fell off a desk, whacked against the arm of my swivel chair, then crashed pretty hard on the carpet floor.
