I think that what a lot of people are saying that they just really like the
701. I have also
been delighted. BUT-if only it had a built in 28.8 modem and a Pentium!
The design is sweet.
the size is delightful and the butterfly keyboard actually works quite well.
There are a lot
of laptops out there but I loved the size and feel of the 701 the first time
I ever saw one where
I could put my hands on it. It is a unique machine out there in own nitch.
If ever there was
a machine that IBM should grace with an upgrade board it is this one. I
think it should be
in the Museum of Modern Art...
