I'd appreciate hearing from anybody who has used a NEC Multispeed
Laptop computer, especially the EL (backlit screen).
According to the Byte review, it's VERY fast, but the built-in
software is poorly designed and buggy, and the screen hinges are
prone to breakage. Hence, durability is a concern.
What are the differences between the EL and the new EL-2 model ?
I'm also concerned about the screen's ease-of-use, as I have
problems with eye fatigue working with a regular amber monitor.
Lastly, would something like DESKLINK allow me to use the drives
in my desktop PC from the NEC ? (I believe that DESKLINK provides a
two-node LAN via the serial ports ... simple file-transfer is of
limited use to me).
I will summarize E-mail replies to the net.
