weighs only 11 lbs with the battery.  It is 16 months old and in mint 
condition.  It sells new for $3700 without software.
I'm asking $2050 plus shipping.  I'm selling because I need a UNIX box
for my research. Please respond by e-mail to basiji@u.washington.edu .

It's a Zenith SuperSport 286E with lots of goodies, including 

-VGA screen with 16 shades of grey
-40MB hard drive
-1 MB RAM
-a 2400 baud modem
-a page-white screen
-DOS 3.3 with manuals
-Logitech 2-button mouse (MS mouse compatible, with driver and paint software)
-AND a 10MHz 80287 (Advanced Micro Devices)

This baby is $2200 (erratum--not $2700, but still bare-bones)
new at the University of Pennsylvania bookstore (MINUS the 
modem, mouse, and coprocessor, mind you), and is less than 5 months old.  I 
love it, but am selling it to raise cash for a fancy 386.  I would like to 
sell it for about $1900, and will include shipping.  You can get a carrying 
case to house it all in for $40 extra.

If this sounds like a good package (and it is), please reply to
