Summary: 


-----

I have purchased the PC Limited AT clone and have been using it with
IBM PC XENIX for about six months now.  My only complaint is that the
30MB drive I ordered with it came formatted as a 20MB, so until I can
get my hands on a formatting program, I'm stuck with a 10MB dead zone.
Also, there was NO i mean *NO* i mean **NO** documentation available
for it, except a ONE PAGE xerox'ed sheet of jumper settings.  (This may
have changed since then).

Impressions:

	the keyboard is not as nice as real IBM, but all in all as good
	as or better than most clones or even most good Ascii
	terminals.

	In six months, it has only 'hung' a few times, and I could
	trace those to electrical glitches (turning on other stuff on
	the same circut).

Recommendations:

	I would do it again.

	There may be some clones even cheaper now.  Look into it.
