Dear Networkers,

I'm very very disappointed to post this topic as my first post to
"nz.xxxx". But I have to do.

I'm an overseas student in the Waikato Univ. I brought a notebook
computer that can handle Kanji charactors. Yesterday, the PC was
stolen from Graduate's Room at Computer Science Department in Univ.
I decided to put the following message :



				REWARD OFFERED !!

A NEC PC-9801 NS/E notebook computer was found missing in Graduate's
Room at the Computer Science Department in the Waikato Univ. on 18/8/92.
This model is in JAPANESE DOMESTIC MODEL, therefore, it will NOT be able 
to operate any other software which are not in the Japanese version,
eg. Lotus 1-2-3, WordPerfect and even MS-DOS and Windows. This computer
is NOT IBM-Compatible. However MS-DOS runs on the PC, the MS-DOS is
Japanese Version. All massages comes by Japanese. English MS-DOS cannot
