An NEC 8201 Laptop computer for sale.

This laptop is similar to the Radio Shack Model 100 but contains 
more memory.  Features and options include:

        LCD screen, 40 characters by 8 lines

        64K RAM

        67 key keyboard

        RS232C port

        Parallel (Centronics) printer port with cable to
        interface with any parallel printer

        AC adaptor

        Two different cases (soft vinyl case and a hard
        protective case)

        PC-Talk (IBM software) with cable to transfer
        files between an IBM PC and the NEC 8201 via
        RS232C ports.  You can probably get similar software
        to transfer between the MAC and the NEC via RS232.
        PC-Talk is just a communications software package.

        Bar code reader interface with software.

This laptop has built-in software packages which include:
Basic, text processor and terminal communications.  A full
word processor software package has been purchased and
loaded onto the machine.  The text processor is used to create
the words to your document.  You can then either transfer the
document (which is in ASCII format) to your MAC or use the
word processing package to format the document on the NEC and
print it directly.  

As I mentioned, the NEC 8201 is the brother to the Radio Shack
Model 100 (physically the only difference is the position of the
cursor control keys and the color of the case).  The NEC
does not have an internal modem but instead provides for
the 64K of RAM.

It runs on four AA batteries or if you wish, you can purchase
rechargeable nicad batteries.

It is in excellent condition

Price:  $ 275.00
