The other day I flew cross country - Atlanta/San Francisco, then
returned a few days later.

I put an extra battery in my TP760XL so as to be able to work as
long as possible.

But it was da*n near impossible to work at all.

Why?

Because the tiny footprint of a TP 760XL *barely* fit onto
the pull-down tray on the seat in front. Finally, I abandoned
the tray, and actually used my lap.

I think IBM has a HUGE untapped market for top-line machines
with a small footprint -- all the power of today's machines, but
smaller.

Still glad I took the unit, as it DID do its job, and worked fine
on the return.
