Kim's Commentary on TP701s



John Kim has an excellent commentary about the virtures & lacks thereof of
the TP701.  I'll agree with all of 'em based on my 2-yr+ experience with
one.  Withall, I like my 701.  It is cute <G>.   BUT....
 One thing I would add.  Background: My 701 is 486/75, 24 megs of ram, TFT
screen, 720 megs of hard drive.  My addendum:  the machine is SLOWWWW when
running MS Office 97 apps under Win95.  There are noticeable lags when
entering data into Excel spreadsheets, text into Word documents, etc. A
second or two, seems like,  Enough to be noticeable.  These apps need a
pentium processor! 

My 701 has been reliable.  No failures/problems that have required
returning machine for repair.   But overall, I have to recognize  that it's
a 3-4 year-old design, and the software coming along now is outpacing it.
Sure wish I could upgrade it with a pentium processor.
