Actually, that is a relative statement.  In comparrison to my own machine they 
are considerably lighter.  Maybe not microlight but certainly a big difference!

    Hi Terry,
    I've bought a couple of the newish Toshiba A series laptops for people.  
Quite well priced around £6-00 with a 2 gig celeron processor but they work 
well with JFW and they're quite thin and light.  The floppy is not included 
though.

      Hi all
      I'm taking up a new position next month, as a social worker for people 
with learning disabilities.

      I will be needing a laptop to use in the office, and to carry around when 
doing home visits.

      I'm looking for something which is as light as possible.

      I prefer the lay out of the Compaq laptop keyboard.  Something with 1.5 - 
2g processor.

      the main consideration is the weight.

      I thought I heard that there were laptops whereby the base splits in 
half, i.e. you can leave behind, things like, CD-ROM, floppy, network adapters, 
etc.

      Is there any machines out there that are fast, compatible with JFW, and 
very light?

      Any assistance would be very very much appreciated.

      Thanks for reading.

      Best wishes

      Terry
