There are a couple of machines meeting your specifications (more or less). The one I am consideringis Zeos 386 which has everything that you want except 40 Meg HD; it only has 20. THe price is $2295. If you want additional 3 Meg Ram, you pay another $349 and an internal model (2400 bps) is additional $210. They operate a 24 hr/7 day 800 phone service. The number is 800-423-5891. I don't know if it works from Canada, though. Good luck and good hunting. ==Tamer -- M. Tamer Ozsu mto@gte.com GTE Laboratories 40 Sylvan Road Waltham, MA 02254
