Good for docs but how do you support clients with Access apps?

So far I am not missing Office. Another advantage is I can leave the doc in Google Docs and pick it up on my desktop if needed for printing, etc. Doug -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin Sent: Thursday, November 18, 2010 8:19 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] [dba-OT] Like a Third Leg So far I'm liking this little box. Have to get Office onto it today and see what that's like. If I keep it I may get another gig of RAM - has only 1 at the moment.

They are cute! I found I could see the screens pretty well even at the small size and the touch pads worked pretty well. They had an Acer for $249 as the best price. It had a 160GB hard drive. They had an HP for around $300 I think it was. GK On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 10:25 PM, Rocky Smolin <rockysmolin at bchacc.com> wrote: > I need another computer like a third lag - especially a laptop.
