I have a TP560-120 with 40MB RAM. Pick your benchmarks and if they are
fairly Net accesible I'll run 'em for you and give you my results. I
generally describe my P120 as performing about like a decent P90 desktop
system. A TP560-133 should be ~10% faster than my machine, so I guess it
would roughly match a decent P100 desktop.
I bought my machine used in January and think it is just great. The
12.1" TFT screen is great. The lame little IBM Home & Away 14.4
modem/10bT Ethernet works fine in it. If you need ethernet, plus a spare
14.4 modem for $35 or so you can get them from Damark.
