Our hardware man looked for such a thing for years; when the Model 100 came out, he bought one and stopped looking. Sure, it would be nice if it had a larger screen, but the one it's got is highly legible (not something one can say about most of the larger ones!) and the extra utility of a larger screen probably wouldn't be worth the price for a troubleshooting application. It's cheap, you can get it serviced almost anywhere, the keyboard is decent, and it has other uses as well. -- Usenet(n): AT&T scheme to earn revenue from otherwise-unused Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology late-night phone capacity. {allegra,ihnp4,decvax,pyramid}!utzoo!henry
