I tried to post this a couple of days ago, but it must have been lost in the
ether...

Anyway, I was browsing through Sam's Wholesale Club (a wholesale warehouse
operated by the Wal-mart folks) and saw a Leading Edge laptop with the
following specs (as near as I can remember):
        model DLT386SX
        cpu 386SX
        1 MB RAM, expandable to 2MB
        20 or 40 MB hd
        one 3.5 fd, with jack for an external 5.25 fd
        lcd screen (don't remember if backlit)
        640x400 resolution
        external jack for VGA monitor (does this mean the LCD screen is VGA,
                                                                         too?)
        removable keyboard (I know, not essential)
        no separate numeric keypad (I could learn to live without one)
        expansion slots: I don't remember how many
        $1299 (or was it $1399?)

Anyway, it sounds like a pretty good deal on what looks to be a fairly
sturdy machine.  Has anyone bought/used one?  Any recommendations pro or con.
Any information is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
