A fast, quite slim laptop, released in 1994, with a good LCD screen but a way too small chassis. Everything feels overly cramped starting with the screen, moving further to the keyboard and trackpoint buttons. An additional design failure is the lack of a VGA output on the laptop, meaning that using an external screen requires the bulky docking station. The display has only two brightness levels, standard and energy saving. Response time is acceptable. | A fast, quite slim laptop, released in 1994, with a quite good LCD screen but a way too small chassis.

It has a medium performance CPU, with an average video controller for a 486. The CPU does not release too much heat so active cooling is not necessary. The keyboard has reasonable tactile feedback but it is very far from being the best, with quite a long key travel and a mushy feel. The trackpoint thumb stick feels quite uncomfortable, requiring the use of an external pointing device, an external mouse. The laptop's plastic case is somewhat durable but the internal design is horrendously complex, requiring lots of disassembly to access even the harddrive. | It has a medium performance CPU, with an average video controller for a 486.
