Hi! I was just wondering if anyone else had trouble with the
massive backorder on the Zeos 386sx laptop.. As of yesterday,
Monday, the backorder is now pushed to SEPTEMBER 30, 1990!!
Originally they said the third week of July... Then the
first week of August... NOW the end of September!!

To say the least, I'm quite upset at the whole situation...
Unfortunately, their price and my need for a laptop has caused
me to wait until it's available.. Supposedly, they are
offering a 386-20Mhz laptop as a direct replacement for
the same original price of $2195 if you purchased the original
386sx laptop before Monday... Anyways the 386-20 is suppose
to be $2995 retail anyways...

I would be interested in hearing other users with problems on
Zeos... I've had an extremely difficult time reaching ZEOS
sales AND techincal support...

Thanks
George
