My roommate and I have run into some temporary finanacial flow problems,
so I must depart with my nearly NEW ultra-light & powerful 486 notebook
computer...that is, if we still want to have a roof over our heads by
Christmas :)

The computer is a Lexmark and features a 486SLC microprocessor running @
25 MhZ, with the 487 math co-processor installed!  This is a genuine IBM
motherboard and not some cheap foreign import, btw.  In anycase, the
notebook has 4 megs of RAM and an extra large capacity 120 meg HD instead
of the standard 80 megs you'll find on many notebooks.  There is one
3.5" 1.44 Meg HD floppy drive installed as well as a built-in 2400/9600
baud data-fax modem.  Thus, this is a complete on-the-go computing and 
telecommunications package!

The screen measures 9.4", is backlit, and features 640x400 pixels of
resolution.  The 84-key keyboard and built in trackball are well 
designed and excellently functional.  Ports-wise, you have one serial and
parallel port, as well as external VGA, keyboard, and mouse ports.  Thus,
just add a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, flip down the notebook screen,
and you've got a full-fleedged 486DX desktop equivalent running at a 
spritely 25 MhZ!

As I had mentioned previously, the computer has seen nearly no use, so I've
only got DOS, Windows, and Winfax on there to make sure that the notebook
is fully functional- and it is :)  I can leave these items on or take them
off, depending upon your personal preference.  

The unit is very portable, with one charge of the detachable battery pack
allowing for up to 4 hours of use, and the entire machine weighing in at
under 5 and a half pounds.  As for size, the notebook takes up as much space
as a SINGLE SHEET OF LOOSE-LEAF PAPER, and is less than 2" thick!!!

Considering the excellent specs of my machine, it's nearly new condition,
and the quality of its reputation, I feel that my price of $1850 is very
reasonable.  I will handle ALL shipping and insurance and COD fees FREE
of charge so that the unit comes right to your doorstep.  All that I ask,
due to the consequences of our being screwed over, is that you pay with
a cashier's check or money order.  If interested, please e-mail me, and we
can work things out.  Thanks a lot for your attention!
