[comp.sys.laptops] Need info on ACCESS 286 laptop

Hi folk.  Can anyone who has used an ACCESS 286 laptop (20MB or 40MB
version) please give a description on the following points:

    1)  How longer does the battery last with HD on?  Can the HD be
        turned off?  If so, how long does the battery last?

    2)  I saw some dealer catalog that says it has a 8-bit slot and
        a 16-bit slot.  Are these standard ISA slots (i.e. those found
        in desktop PC's)?  If so, do you know if it has 12volt supply
        to these slot?

    3)  How is the display?

    4)  The dealer was advertizing $1,399 for the 40MB and $1,299 for
        the 20MB version.  Is that reasonable?

    5)  In general, how good a laptop is it?  (Does it break down?)

Thanks in advance.
