I would like to find out more about Panasonic CF150B. It look very similar to Tandy 1100FD. Are they the same? The CF150B lists several hundred dollars more than the Tandy but are sold by mail order houses at around $600. Has anybody had any experience purchasing laptop via mail order? What would be a good (and reliable) mail order house to shop. Thanks for any info. -- Daniel (ddee@vicorp.com)

They are not quite the same. The 1100FD does not have a backlit screen and cannot be expanded with an additional meg of RAM. I think it must be more like a CF150A or something. Both have DOS 3.3 in ROM, but the Tandy also has the Deskmate interface and Deskmate's word processor and spellchecker in ROM -- not great software, but handy if you're stuck without and editor. I like my 1100FD a lot. No backlighting means 3 hours or more on battery between recharges. The Panasonic sounds good, too, I almost wish I'd known about it before I bought the Tandy! -- ------- ======= ------- ======= ------- ======= ------- ======= ------- ======= uw-beaver!sumax!polari!lsh -- lsh@polari Lee Hauser If I pay for access, I don't have to disclaim ANYTHING!
