The following E-mail message arrived this a.m. As a background, it is from
a PC user who flamed the Portfolio (I mean incinerated it) when I first
announced it on our company's BBS. As you will read, having seen and used
one has changed his opinion somewhat!

Greg:
Would certainly oblige if I'm around: for your interest, we have ordered
FOUR units, a parallel interface and one memory pack for our branch -- works
out that four people now have portable PC ability for about 1/3 the price
of a laptop and goodness knows how much saving in space!

PS That's FOUR units for 1/3 the price of ONE laptop!
PPS I like the little unit: so does everyone else to whom I've shown it --
    Thang Le (who's in our branch 1/2 time) brought one over yesterday so I
    was showing it off to PC users and got the enthusiasm I expected!  There
    are some dandy features packed into that litle case -- if it was'n't for
    budgetary restraints at home right now, I'd buy one for myself!
