Subject: Any Bondwell 2 owners out there?

    From: Mark Becker <Cent.Mbeck%OZ.AI.MIT.EDU at XX.LCS.MIT.EDU>
    Re:   Any Bondwell 2 owners out there?

         I'd like to correspond with other Bondwell 2 owners to exchange
    hints & kinks on programming this laptop.  My major interest now is in
    programming the LCD display to do graphics, something which seems to
    have been left out of the BIOS code.

Bondwell does have a Graphics BIOS available for this great CP/M laptop.
Unfortunately they have decided to discontinue this model as they feel
that it is not as profitable (or in competition with) their MS-DOS version,
even though they could NOT supply the demand for the CP/M version.

If you can find one on close out special you may want to check it out.
some of it's features include; full 25 x 80 LCD (200 x 640 pix) display,
Z80 w/ CP/M and full MicroPro line, built in 3.5" disk (2nd 2.3" or 5.25"
external disk optional), 512K RAM disk optional with CP/M in ROM, 1 serial
1 Cintronics ports, runs about 6 hrs/charge or on AC with adapter/charger
unit...  I've had mine (two) for about a year with no problems, and would
be very unhappy without one.
