Help...

Can anyone provide me with information on the Sharp PC-7221 'luggable'?

I have seen magazine ads recently advertising 'closeout' prices on them
as low as $1400 (640K, 20MB HD, DOS 3.2, Etc...).  Is this a decent IBM
AT compatible?  How is the screen legibility?  Why is this machine being
sold at what seems to be a low price?  I'am in need of such a machine and
thought someone with some knowledge of the Sharp unit could share their
opinion with me - I would really be grateful!

Often in these same ads they are offering the Sharp PC-4502 laptop at prices
that seem to be to good to be true, are they?  Has Sharp decided to simply
pull out of the IBM compatible business?

Thanks in advance for the help.  I would be happy to summarize the responses
and post them in a follow-up article if anyone is interested.
