Let me explain:
1. Vast mistrust to ebay guys and newsgroups so trying here
because I trust everyone on this list and had good time dealing
here.
2. Canadian dollars is very soft and still falling; costs 2 dollars
to buy 1 US dollar. So, 300US is worth 600 CDN to get a used
notebook. Which I can't afford now and not worth that value like
that.
3. I'm preparing to get back into college again and most colleges
campuses in Ontario, canada don't have dorms on site which I will be
commuting daily by bus. I'm looking at couple places currently.
The old 386 notebook I have is falling apart at the seams so I'm
bespeeching (wrong word but you get the meaning! :) ) to mail list
guys to find a decent used 486 notebook. Budget is around 150 to
200US across border or 350 CDN max if bought inside Canada.
specs I'm looking for:
486dx2 3.3V or dx4 3.3V, Mono or TFT color, 16MB or up. FD builtin
or external. 500mb or smallish HD ok 'cuz I have either 340 or
500mb hd to put in. Less than 7lbs excluding charger brick.
Eurocom, compaq, TI, and thinkpads even odd brands (but still needs
to be reliable and still easy to get part bits).
Thanks very much and let you all guys go back to topic at hand here.
