Packard Bell is offering an XT-compatible computer with
640kb RAM, 30MB Harddisk, CGA-monitor, 4 slots on an
XT class machine, with cpu switchable between 4.77/10mhz.
The price was $899, including a 14" CGA monitor.

My friend is considering this for his first foray into
computers. I welcome any email directly to me regarding,
1-compatibility, i.e. lotus et al
2-relability, i.e. is a good, reliable computer.
I hate to see my friend get a machine and then have all
sorts of problems with it....

Any help from fellow netters is most appreciated!

many thanks.....
