I am looking for information on IBM-PC lookalikes, including name, price,
performance, problems, etc.

What I need to find out about are micros which run MS-DOS and which are
very compatible with the IBM-PC without the high price tag.  This means
that they can run most of the software, and can use much of the hardware
without requiring expensive modification (i.e.--to add on a hard disk
drive should not cost an arm and a leg [in addition to the cost of the
drive] just to bring the computer to the point where it can then use
the drive).

Send e-mail, and if there is enough interest I will summarize to the
net.
