- I need an inexpensive laptop preferably with a 2400 or 9600 error
- correcting modem built in to run basically a telcom program to login for email
- and MAYBE some wordproeccsing - basically email access is more important
- and to demostrate email to people in their offices.
-
- So I dont need a 386 or such "powerful" machine but a decent (used is fine)
- PC wioth 1MB or so of RAM and a decent harddisk in a compact box that
- is not too kludgy.
-
- Someone suggested the NEC Ultralite series (like 17-01) that has 1mb
- of "hard disk" space on a chip that can be used to "transfer from main
- PC" the application one expects to use on the road. So it is not
- a "real" full fledged PC but is very light and has a backlit screen I am
- told.
-
- I was wondering if it is a good option for the need I have or is there a
- good place to get used 286 laptops for decent [read LOW] prices.
-
- Your opinions appreciated
