The NEC PC-8201 Computer

The PC 8201 is a little flat laptop-oid machine. Its powered by 4 AA batteries (which last for over 4 days of continous usage!!) These little beauties do most things that you might need from a laptop, except multi-media (long battery life, no crashes, no g-shock problems, no delays for turning on, no waits for shutting down, full travel keyboard). The pc8201 is very similar to the tandy model 102 and model 100 (all being made by the same third party) There is a lot more information available for the Tandy models.

Eventually, I want to do something with mine (if just to upgrade the ram from 16K....)

These machines are almost identical to the Tandy Model-100 laptop.

Work so far:
