I just heard of one last weekend.  It doesn't sound like much, but it
is a 68K and it is inexpensive.  Quasitronics (800-245-4192) makes a
"P68000 MicroLab Notebook Computer" for $295. ($197.50 to educational
institutions, faculty and students.)  It has 8K bytes of EPROM, half
monitor and half user, and 4K bytes of static RAM.  Sorry, but I don't
have an address for them.

And, of course, there's the QL.  The prices sound reasonable, but it
might be like buying an American car -- once you get all the things
on it that you want and need, the price is nowhere near what you
started out with.
