Does anyone have any experience with the Single Floppy PANASONIC CF150BPKGSPEC ... Does the ram disk stay 'hot' when the power is off .. I looked at one in a computer store and liked the screen .. My primary need is to connect up to serial ports on various computers and UPS units, test print print spoolers .. and general hardware debugging ... but I also would like to do a little workprocessing & spread sheets while I am traveling. I looked at the T1000SE and liked it very much, but the above laptop is several hundred $$$ less expensive. Thanks in advance ... Fred J. Stellabotte stellabo@cshl.org

The add-ins (RAM board and modem) cut SERIOUSLY into the shelf life of a charged battery, and into the operating time from a fully-charged battery. If you're near an AC outlet, that should not be a problem. -- Mike Schuster | CIS: 70346,1745 NY Public Access UNIX: ...cmcl2!panix!schuster | MCI Mail, GENIE: The Portal (R) System: schuster@cup.portal.com | MSCHUSTER
