I would expect the Sharp/TI 4 pounder to be very rare for several
months, as it quite outdoes the Compaq LTE and Toshiba 1200 on both
weight and screen. Downpoints: the floppy is external, you cant use
both the modem and external monitor simultaneously, and survivability
is unknown.

You might call the instrument suppliers in your town who sell TI
products. Educational discounts put it in the same cost class as toshiba
and zenith.

comuadd appears to be selling the very same laptop under
their own label.  See this weeks PC magazine for the add.

I don't work for them and haven't used the laptop so I only
know that I've seen it advertised.  Don't ASSUME anything else.

Yes, but be warned.  Great screen and only 4 pounds makes this baby a
strong contender.  Unfortunately the keyboard is - in my opinon - not
good enough if you are to do any serious writing.  Try it out before
buying!
