The new HP 100LX is a fully PC-compatible palmtop computer with an improved
library of built-in applications, a CGA-compatible display, a 9-pin serial
port, and longer battery life.
More than just an upgrade, the new HP 100LX provides robust organizer capabilities,
a database program, greater ability to run DOS programs, and built-in cc:MAIL.
HP's light-weight sub-notebook PC comes with Microsoft Windows 3.11, Word
and Excel built in. It has four PCMCIA slots and a fax/modem slot and has
options for 80MB of hard disk space and 8MB of system RAM memory.

Ed summarizes the programming tools available for the 95LX, including C
languages, Assemblers, BASIC, and Pascal. He also looks at more specialized
