[comp.sys.laptops] INFO ON SHARP PC-4501 LAPTOP

        I just obtained a Sharp PC-4501 laptop.  It has an 80188
processor, which until today I had never heard of.  Can the 80188
be replaced by a NEC V20 or V30?  Does it use an 8-bit bus or a
16-bit bus?

        Is it still possible to buy Rom Disk or EMS boards for
this machine?  Can I use a 1.44 mb drive if I switch to DOS 3.3?
Thanks,
