Well, I landed an HP 95LX. Naturally, it has no manual. What can you tell
me about it?
It has 512K of RAM, of which 256K seems to be used as a RAM disk, and the
sidecar PCMCIA slot has some RadioMail module loaded in it. What type
PCMCIA slot is it? What can I put in it?
It also came with a serial? cable terminating in an RJ-45.
How programmable is it? I was able to get a DOS prompt (3.22, shiver).
It also came with an Ericcson MobiDEM radio modem, but I'll bet it wouldn't
work even if the battery pack were charged. What can I do with this?
Nice system though!
Use the sorts (search engines :-). It is an 8018x (not sure if it an 86 or
88). It runs DOS and can use most DOS tools. It is a favorite amongst the
hacker crowd as it is a nice easily portable machine (yes I have to get me
one of those). I have the HP300LX, it's all right. EBAY will have accessories
for the beasty so you may want to check there, but watch those prices.
Sometimes they goes nuts!
