Thesenotebook-size computers had a 16-bit IBM PC-compatible processor, 384K ROM and272K RAM. As they run MS-DOS, they could be linked with an IBM PC or the HP-150touch screen computer. Both laptops display when pluggedit. One shows ...the Personal Application Manager (PAM) display, the other shows acouple lines of text including the serial number.
