I know I'm not sane, and I don't use a 200LX because I don't have one. 
But I certainly do useful work on a 95LX and 100LX. They're ideal for 
taking notes as I dismantle soemthing, for keeping a catalogue of 
books/components, for use as a terminal emulator, for simple spreadsheets 
(and I don't need anything more), etc, etc, etc. 

A more modern machine wouldn't give me any beneifts that can think of. It 
would take longer to use, it would probably have a much shorter battery 
life. No thanks.
