My brother has a 130XE with a floppy drive. He is graduating from high school and perhaps going to Catholic U in D.C.. I want to get him a present that would make his 130XE useful in college. He can take a cheap B/W TV with him so he doen't need a monitor. I don't have any idea how the computer system is set up at Catholic U. Would he want a modem to connect to the university and use their printer or would a personal printer be more useful? Recommendations on what brand and where to buy would be appreciated to. And also if anyone knows anything about how Catholic U computer system is set up. Also, does anyone know where to buy game cartridges for the 130XE. He would like to get a milliped game.
