5. 1MB vs. 2MB models
Q: Is the 2MB model worth the extra money over the 1MB Model? A: The only difference is the extra Megabyte of internal "disk" storage on the C: drive. It may be cheaper to buy the 1MB model and invest the difference in a bigger PCMCIA flash or SRAM card. But if you want to keep the PCMCIA slot open for a PCMCIA modem or other device, you're stuck with internal storage only, and the extra megabyte may be worth the money. Q: Does the 2MB RAM HP-100/200LX have more system memory? A: No, both models HP-100/200LX are MS-DOS machines which are inherently limited to only 640KB of system RAM. But an EMS (not XMS or himem) driver has been written; see emm040e.lhz or emm100.exe on eddie.
