Hello, A person who perhaps will buy a Mac Portable asked me to pose these questions to owners of Mac Portable: 1. Apple claims that the portable will operate from battery for 8-10 hours. Is this true in everyday usage, or did your Mac operate for longer/shorter times ? 2. Do you recommend to buy the Portable with the numeric keypad and mouse, or with the trackball. Are there any applications (e.g. vt100 terminal- emulation) which need the keypad? Thank you very much for your advices. You can send your answers by E-Mail and I'll summarize to the net in comp.sys.mac.wanted. claudio (claudio@forty2.uu.ch) till December 31 1990: Claudio Nieder AST 3.944 (DW 4), Tel: +41 1 465-2249 Alcatel STR AG, Friesenbergstrasse 75, CH-8055 Zuerich, Fax: +41 1 465-3525 (***************** Computer: The best toy ever invented ******************)
