OK .. I'm not going hiking. Seriously !!
And no it's not a military field telephone
I was always fascinated as a kid with the
doctor's case when he visited the house. It
was filled with very small compartments and
drawers. Always wanted one. This thing, as
do many of the luggables remind me of it
Note the video port
Phone port
Monitor power... Amstrad !!
Back ports pretty standard
Unusual DIP switches
Just the one floppy drive
Quite a bold design
Well designed case
For me I would have turned the rear
into a tray to carry a monitor. All kinda
gets a bit messy from here on in
The back just plonks down with a
right old thump and then you have
to lift the green screen monitor
I do like Amstrad keyboards. I guess
it's cus I grew up using a typewriter
I guess you could put your coffee
on the tray. No doubt a few machines
were lost to spilled coffee
The ribs find there way inside the unit
Way , way too small
Don't mind the green. Just the size
And there is that damage I mentioned
Gotta say it does look good
All very sturdy and easy to understand
And that is where you switch on
Pocket for telephone cable
Dedicated external power supply
Telling me a I need new batteries
OK .. the 2nd of the disks isn't bootable
First disk is the DOS disk
And there is a full DIR of the directory
Built in PPC ORG organiser
Just type in ' ORG ' and RETURN
Simple little calendar
