Kantor) Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.hardware Subject: CMOS Simms for the OUTBOUND portable? Message-ID: <300@news.nd.edu> Date: 3 Aug 90 14:47:20 GMT Sender: news@news.nd.edu Organization: University of Notre Dame Lines: 16 I'm thinking of buying the Outbound portable, but I have two questions that maybe someone can answer. 1. One version of the machine is with an internal floppy, and then up to 16MB of CMOS dram used as a nonvolatile memory. They say this is pretty nice because it is fast, rugged, and then there is no need for an external floppy. Question: Where does one buy 120ns 4MB CMOS dram? 2. Does anyone out there have experience with this machine? How do you like it? Or would you have been better off with a DOS laptop? Jeff Kantor Notre Dame jeff@ndcheg.cheg.nd.edu
