instantly, weighs 3 pounds and gets 20 hours of battery life? That's
[1]the TRS-80 Model 100 in a nutshell. Granted, it displays only 8 lines
of text and has just 28 kilobytes of memory, but it's a classic, the
first truly popular portable in the U.S. At PC World we have a teardown
that'll show you the guts of this featherweight champ." And, like many
of
the best things in life, it's powered by AA batteries ([2]as is the
Apple
eMate).
