Do the expansion RAM cards add anything to the size of the Portfolio, or do
they fit completely inside it?

How about the Serial/Parallel interfaces?  I assume that they stick onto the
side of the machine and make it bigger.  True?  Can you use RAM cards when the
interface is attached?


In addition to the timed events/alarms that can be set up with the scheduler,
how about untimed events (i.e. a "to do" list)?  How would you handle, say, ten
things to be done today (as distinct from appointments)? 

What about moving some of them to tomorrow if they don't get completed?  How
easy is that?

I know that, in the extreme, I could just write my own stuff (which is one of
the reasons the Portfolio is so enticing), but I'm interested in what the
built-in software can do.


Thanks for any help.
