Agree on the attached vehicle. Probably no better time than now due to cost of equipment.

Internet could be tough.

Check with your phone company for a USB wireless internet receiver or enable built-in laptop wireless. I know Verizon, T-mobile and AT&T offers serivce but be prepared to pay a hefty monthly fee.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

No problem with the internet as long as $60 a month doesn't bother you. I have a broadband modem from Verizon that I used all the time. It was basically $59.95 a month for unlimited use. There actually were some limits but I gave a ton of presentations where I couldn't get an internet connection due to bank firewall constraints and I never blew out the $60/mo.

Mark, go and do it while you can. You will regret it if you don't because you may never have a better chance.

No boat, back in the suds.

Couple of shows to go to now ...

Jan 15-18 Bayside Expo
Feb 12-15 Big E
Feb 26-28 RI Conv. center

Yeah used is the way to go. Hopefully there's a killer deal out there somewhere in this economy. That would seal the deal.

Many mobile "unlimited" Internet plans are limited to 5-10GB /er month. If he is doing remote support it might be dicey to not blow through that on a monthly basis or even have a good enough signal quality to make reliable remote access connections...

Portable Gulag

Good luck Markski - hope you can make it work

You would be wise to contact a few MBBA members. They and United Mobile Sportsfishermen will be able to fill you in on locations and accessibility. Communications is the least of your problems.
