Other lunch pail types with multiple slots are Dolch and PC Brand.  The Dolch
has been a regular PC Mag Editor's Choice.  We have a 386/25 and it's really
nice.  Expensive though (>$10K).  You can get an expansion chassis that brings
then number of free slots up to 6.  More than a DeskPro.  The base system has
2 long and one short free.  I think all are 16 bit.

I was under the impression the NEC portables had proprietary slots.

I'm in the market for a clamshell type 386 with one slot.  The only one I've
found is the Toshiba.  Unfortunately, I can't buy one with government money
because of the unfortunate submarine prop incident.
