DownSouth...
I'm not talking about giving them a 286 and a 2400 baud modem.
A MediaGX notebook at P-200 with MMX should do the trick? Compare an $80 GX motherboard assembly that includes audio and video with a $453
mobile Pentium MMX and you'll see where my concerns are.
It may not have quite the umph of a Pentium 233MMX but when you consider the difference in price...the pieces of a major shift in notebooks start to fall into place.
Consider a Corp. buying 1000 $1200 computers vs 1000 $2500 notebooks.
After one round of obsolescese I'd be looking at the lesser cost notebooks.
BTW, don't most of these salesmen have a desktop at home?
