Re: laptop computers



Hi Mark,
We have had good luck with the
Versa Family of products from NEC.
Toshiba has also been very successful
for us. One of the things that I find to be
an issue is the pointing device. I really prefer
the touch pad of the Versa to the Keyboard
knob of most Toshiba models.

I will need to purchase a laptop computer soon. For a variety
of reasons it must be a machine that supports Windoze and Microsoft
Word..... I have been looking at Toshiba Satellite models (320CDT for
example), and also at a comparably priced ProStar model..... If anyone
on either cur-l; or phys-l has any comments to offer good or bad about
these models (or other laptops that retail in the neighborhood of
$2,000), please send me e-mail.

Please send your comments to me privately
(mshapiro@fullerton.edu).

Thanks in advance.
