[...] I’m not quite as lucky as Matt (he has one of the new MacBooks), but this is still my second favorite Mac I’ve ever had. If you’re not a Mac person, I apologize in advance for the [...]

Darcy will get a write in vote on my next TWML Hall of Fame Ballot. Somehow, things just won’t be the same without her.

The ol’ gal was a hard worker—and expected no less from the rest of us. Go on and be lazy about your TWML team, if you dare. Darcy was there to send you back to Square One. She was giving 110%, so why not you? You really can learn a life lesson from a laptop!

Recently, I’ve adopted an IBM T-30. Not much to look at. Still needs some “fixer-upper” work before it’s fully functional. But I’m cool with it. After all, Darcy is an example to live up to.

Darcy, you’ve done a heck of a job!

And I mean that in the “GOOD” way…

Cook said it best – Darcy was a source of joy to a lot of people and it’s truly sad to see her go.

Sorry to see you go old girl. I to have nursed a long sick cpu. Reading about Darcy has cleared my mind of any thoughts of putting my old HP down. Darcy you will be missed.

I did not know here long… but the girl appeared to be a real hard dedicated worker who I am sure will be missed. Good luck in the great computer room in the sky..

Hard to believe the old girl finally bought the farm. I’ve watched my brother lug that laptop around for most of his adult life. It traveled with him to work every day back when we worked together, it ran the simulated baseball league we played in, and it generally traveled at his side whereever he went for the last six years. As I fight with a 3 year old PC laptop as it attempts to die on me, I gotta give props to Mac engineering.

Thank you Darcy for running our little virtual world without a complaint.

Rest well.

Darcy was a source of dependability and joy for about 30 different grown men. We all sat around nervously 2-4 times a week, waiting for here to judge us, and let us know if she approved or disapproved of the changes we had made to make ourselves better. She was always there for us and helped us all get through some tought times, not to mention the they way she brought us all together for one common dream. Darcy brought me some of the greatest joy and pain of my life, she will be greatly missed.
