  PC Magazine has followed the introduction of these new "lap-top"
machines (does that mean they don't work when you stand up?).  Here's a
summary of their reviews:

    Volume 6, Number 18 - "Three New Laptops Join the Race"
    Volume 6, Number 13 - "Road Warriors: 11 Laptops Battle It Out"
    Volume 5, Number 22 - "DOS Travels Better Now: What's New In Portables"

  They also reviewed laptop accessories in

    Volume 6, Number 16 - "Laptop Add-ons for Desktop Power"

  Their three "laptops to beat" were the Toshiba T1100 Plus (best all-around
combination of small size and power), the Zenith Z-181 and Z-183 (best
display) and the NEC MultiSpeed (best performance from a non-286 laptop).
