Any interest in a Compaq SLT286 'laptop'? We've been offered one, but as we have enough PC machines of this class I don't think there's any need for us to have it. The current owner's located in Chalfont St. Peter, although it sounds like he may be prepared to deliver within a reasonable distance. (A machine like this was my first exposure to the PC world - IDE disk, mono VGA display, 10MHz CPU I think, floppy drive, detachable keyboard; it was a pretty nice system I seem to recall) cheers Jules -- If you've ever wondered how you get triangles from a cow You need buttermilk and cheese, and an equilateral chainsaw
