We won it but were quite excited about using it. Well reality set in! Mine has 640K and 2Mb disk. This is not enough room to load on very much software. I did have Quick-C loaded( well part of it anyway). What it has evolved to is a portable terminal. I have Procomm running on it and use the internal modem to dial out. I also use it for local editing of programs and documentation. I am probably the wrong market for this machine. It is probably best suited for a business persom that wants to load a Lotus or WP program and work on it during the daily commute. I could only ever get about 2 - 3 hours of use of fully charged batteries. bob P.S. Flight Simulator does not run on it! And I thought I had found a good use for it :-)
