I have a IIci to handle most of my work and would like to acquire a *small*
laptop to handle memos and letters while I commute, and log-on and check my
e-mail when I travel.  Important features would include a good display/keyboard
good autonomy; light and thin; maybe a hard drive in order not to have to fool
around with floppies; an easy way to upload/download to/from a Mac.  I have
noticed the Toshiba 1000HB.  Is it any good?  Anything significantly better
in terms of quality/price ratio (again, I am not interested in a 386 portable
laptop; basic features in a reliable and ergonomic machine should satisfy me)

Thanks,  Stephane
