Michele,
     WANG has just released a nice laptop with an 80-column "twisted" LCD
screen (good viewing at an angle), 10 Mb internal Winchester, internal modem
with std (RJ-11) jack, 1 3-1/2" floppy drive, 512k RAM, and a built-in printer
that uses either thermal paper or std paper and a thermal ribbon.  The LCD
screen detaches so that you can use a std crt monitor.  It came out last Oct;
runs MSDOS; price is ~$5000.00.  I really wanted to spend some gov't money on 
it.
     GRID Computer Systems also have some very nice laptops, but these lack
a built-in printer.
     Oh yeah, the WANG has both RS 232 and SCUSI ports (I think).  The showroom
is at 860 Greenbrier Circle, Suite 200; Chesapeake VA 23320 (804)420-9264.
     My only connection with WANG is as a satisfied customer.  Other std
disclaimers apply.  I hope you find this helpful.

                                   Dave Wegener

               "If all the computer folks in Lowell, Massachusetts, have
                fun tonight-- is *that* WANG Chung ?"
