H'lo netland.. I would like some info that HOPEFULLY is around somewhere... I'm trying to find info on the Atari Folio (Hey.. waitasec.. this is .ibm.pc!) Don't Start the flames JUST YET.. The info I have on the Atario Folio is as follows.. "First pocket computer to be compatable with the IBM-PC".. Weighs less than 1 pound.. "Full Keyboard" --> picture shows ~laptop deal.. no fn keys but a fn-number key combo.. NO keypad.. "Small Display" --> picture shows a display.. article blurb says nothing about res/chars/lines.. runs 12-16 hours on 3AAA batteries w/ auto shutoff.. (from picture) has 3.5 disk disk drive under keyboard.. basically, this thing is tiny, but looks usable.. flip top, about 10" X 4.5" X 2" (from picture).. The article said it should be presented by Atari in conjunction with Distributed Information Processing Ltd. at Comdex this month.. Now.. you know what I know, but I want to know MORE! Like price, where I can go to play with one, accessories, etc. What's the screen resolution? RAM? optional display adaptors? Dare I say (mmph!) Hard disk? Hard RAM? I can't get to Chicago easily.. Anyone have one O' these puppies? I heard they are out in England already.. YO BRITS? Email if possible.. I'm in the middle of a project and will be for the next couple of weeks. No real time to read news. thanx, |---------------------------------------------------------------------|-----| | Barrett Kreiner ARPA: pervect@bsu-cs.bsu.edu <-*New Address* | :-] | | Technical Manager, Fine Arts Computer Lab|--------------------------|-----| | Ball State University.
