I don't think I can comment a lot but I have had something very similar to the one you are talking about. It's IBM TP 700. Just bought it a few days ago, it's used, without any manuals (but real cheap) so kinda hard to figure it out in details. So far it's been working OK, but just yesterday I noticed that it does not run a few programs I had recently downloaded from the Internet. The same programs are readily run on another computer I have an access to, a desktop. So I am kinda wondering if it is because its processor is rather uncommon or what? Or maybe it's plainly some bug in the processor? Don't know. It came with a big dead pixel right in the middle of the screen and some programs that are meant for color screens do not seem to produce as great graphics as they do on color screens. It's sort of dim, but that is not so for all such programs. The screen despite the deceased pixel is pretty good, very contrast. The baterry is not good, I don't use it. I power it from an AC outlet. I meant it as a sophisticated typewriter, something I could run Scientific Workplace on, TEX and LateX, Derive and such. And for this it seems to be good enough. Hope this helps. BTW, if somebody could tell me how to get manuals to it I would greatly appreciate that. TIA.
