<p>Yeah, you did tell me. But money was tight. If you remember, it took me (a month maybe?) to figure out how to connect that Stenoram. I had the wrong port, wrong USB serial cable. This Stentura took only the time to connect it.</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure I told you to upgrade quite a while ago! Of course, I would have recommended that you get a Flash ...<br></br> </p>
<p>As for the laptop, if you don't have a computer store in your area, you should check with your local tech/community colleges. Up here in the Pacific North Wet, at least one of the colleges sells older laptops to students for about $150.</p>

<p>I just connected my new realtime cable to the writer (along with the old serial adapter). It worked. I did practice writing. It's perfectly clean! That Stenoram was far worse that I thought. All I need now is a better laptop.</p>
<p>Any one of you writing on those old Stneorams or Smartwriters, at least swap it for a Stentura 6000. I wish I had done this at least a year ago.</p>

<p>I buy a new writer almost every year. I want the best equipment as soon as I can get it. I agree that the new and improved writers, computers, iPads, etc. make it less work and also make you look good because you're keeping up with technology, which is never a bad thing. Also, it is a write-off you know; don't want to forget that fact. We all need as many of those as we can get.</p>

<p>Hey, Mary Jo,</p>
<p>Personally I don't upgrade often because of cost. I think I had the model you are talking about. I then upgraded to a Mira G2. I found it was less hard to write on the long days and no more paper to bother with. I recently upgraded to the Diamante. I love the features it has. I love being able to listen to the soft-spoken witnesses through my headphones. The writer amplifies soft-spoken people. My old writer had floppies. I'm glad I don't have to deal with that…</p>

I love being able to listen to the soft-spoken witnesses through my headphones. The writer amplifies soft-spoken people. My old writer had floppies. I'm glad I don't have to deal with that anymore. The Diamante is much lighter to carry.</p>
<p>Each time I have upgraded I have found it has made my job easier.</p>
