The guy in the next office from me ordered one today.  Vendor
Under-Ware Electronics in Wichita (800-442-1408) SAYS it's a Samsung,
and Samsung rated extremely well in a recent major magazine review.
In brief, it's like a Compaq notebook with double the grayscale value,
plus a short-card slot, at 1/3 Compaq's list price.
Highlights:
 30-day, no-questions-asked refund
 6.6 lbs. with battery (longest-lasting battery reviewed)
 one 8-bit standard card slot
 VGA b&w lcd with 32 grayscale, not 16
 $1,999 with 1 MB ram
 5 MB ram max, $80/MB
 386sx, 16 MHz, Award BIOS
 Ext. keyboard and VGA (color) monitor ports
 8.5" x 11" (AC adapter is external)
 20 MB, 27 ms, IDE drive
 - the 20MB drive is perhaps the weakest feature, which can be
   fixed via the extra slot, or upgrading from 20 MB when better
   2" drives exist.
