I ordered one of these today. They say they have immediate shipment. I will give a full report on the package price I got when I receive the machine. This machine will accompany me to Honduras in May when I go down there for 6 months of R&R from Ft. Lee. ;-) -- John B.

I have a 386 with three disk drives, very fast, expensive, and with moral character indicated by the fact that she runs MS-DOS. Her name is Gallumbits. Doug Adams fans will understand. To the rest of you, be assured that most of my co-workers don't understand the name either. Anyway, definitely the machine for R&R. -- William Silvert, Habitat Ecology Division, Bedford Inst. of Oceanography P. O. Box 1006, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, CANADA B2Y 4A2. Tel.

You misunderstand (or perhaps not :-)). The machine will be used for work and to play games. The Temporary Duty trip to Honduras is R&R from Ft. Lee because I hate being the Executive Officer for a Training Company. It will be so nice to get back to the real Army (whatever that is, and Ft. Lee definitely is not it). I look forward to having a platoon of real trips and real missions every day as opposed to the fairy land here at Fortress Lee. -- John B.
