My dad is looking at a Vendex VTI-55-AT clone.  It has the following
features:

  IBM PC/AT compatible with Award BIOS    $1760.00
  12mhz 286 processor
  1mb RAM
  1.2mb 5.25 floppy disk
  32mb hard drive
  One parallel and 2 serial ports
  Clock calendar with battery backup
  101 key PS/2 style keyboard
  EGA graphics adaptor
  8 slots (6 empty)
  200w power supply
  MS-DOS 3.3
  GW-BASIC
  14" hi-res .31 dot pitch EGA color monitor with tilt/swivel base
  1-year warranty parts and labor
  800 toll-free technical hotline support

Does anyone know if the Vendex is a good system?  He'd like to run
Word Perfect and possibly Lotus (or some other spread sheet program).

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide about this system!
