Hello again all,

	Ive had a couple request for a summary of more info on the 
Laser PC-4, so I thought i post a list of what the company sent me...
here goes

The PC-4 comes with the following software in its 2MB of ROM:
		o Word Processor
		o 80,000 Word Spell Checker
		o Lotus-compatible spreadsheet
		o Basic Programming Language
		o Telephone Directory
		o Appointment Book
		o Calculator with log/trig functions
		o Automatic Telephone Dialer
		o Expense Account Tracker

The PC-4 has a 4x40 display and a full size keyboard

Dimensions: about 10x7x1.75  and weighs 2 pounds

The PC-4 also has an expansion slot for other software.  At the moment 
you can get a Roget's Thesaurus Cartridge for it, and the company told m
e ther is a modem card on the way via a third party, as well as various
other as-yet-unspecified cards.  

The PC-4 comes with 32K of user memory, upgradable to 128K for $59.99

The PC-4 has both a parallel and serial port, and comes with a set of each
type of cable, as well as an AC adapter and carrying case

Also included is a copy of PC-Tools version 5.5 for either the PC or the 
Mac -- this is included to make file transfers easier.

Thats about it.. all for $249.99 , or $216.66 if 6 of us buy them at
once.  Please let me know if you are interested.


Also, could anyone who has this thing tell us what u think of it please? 
Thanx...
