With the exception of the serial ports, it seems to be 99.99% PC compatible. Given decent lighting the display is OK (but I will admit that NO LCD is great yet). the Ericson (sp?) seems interesting from the adv, but I don't know how good a machine it is. The other good alternative for non-LCD display is the new GRiD pc compatible. Again, I haven't used. If you are going overseas, make sure you get the proper voltage equipment from the manufacturer. DO NOT run any digital equipment thru a converter, as few put out 120V sin-wave. -- Opinions expressed are public domain, and do not belong to Lotus Development Corp. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Simcha-Yitzchak Lerner {genrad|ihnp4|ima}!wjh12!talcott!sesame!slerner {cbosgd|harvard}!talcott!sesame!slerner slerner%sesame@harvard.ARPA
