2) Compaq LTE Elite 4/75c

- 24MiB fast page
- Crappy WDC video controller
- 4.7GB 3800RPM HDD (stolen from defunct Dell Latitude)
- Orinoco Gold Classic (nonfunctioning, Proxim never returned my call)
That Compaq LTE.... I know that unit like the back of my hand... I worked at Compaq and that was their first pentium laptop entry. I had the P90 version of it.
good laptop, although you might experience "crazy mouse" aka the mouse gets a mind of its own.

also.. the Bios will need to be 7.20 or higher to see larger drives.. aka 7.20 will see up to a 4 gig.. and 7.32 will see above that... but be warned, on the 7.32 bios... on a COLD boot it will take 1.5 - 2 minutes to boot up.. Compaq is aware of it, and said there is nothing they can do to speed it up.... and there is no harm.... it just takes a while.

on warm boots figure 20-30 seconds
