It felt good and looked good, but my friend mentioned that the memory was limited to 32k (?). Since most DOS applications usually expect the defacto 640K to be lurking out there, has anyone got any good words about the Portfolio as a "real" computer. I wouldn't need MUCH, but I would like to run my database (AskSam 4.1) and some comm program. How real IS this box? Steve -- Stephen C.
