I have an opportunity to buy a NEC ultralite machine
   V30, 2megs, extra battery, internal modem
for about $1000, but I don't know if that is a good deal.  So...


1)  Is $1000 a fair price for the described unit?

2)  How long will the battery last?

3)  How big is the A/C power/charger unit?

4)  Is it a CGA display?

5)  Any problems with compatability?

6)  Can you use real-time data compression programs such as 'Stacker'
    with the silicon disk?  I assume so....

Thanks in advance,

Martin
