Epson ActionNote 4000 486 Subnotebook

[System7]

Wow this thing is neat. Its sooo small, it makes my macbook look huge. 8mb Of RAM, DOS 6.21, Win3.1, 120mb HD, really light, small, portable and fast with its full 486 at 33mhz.

One odd feature-a FPU slot.

I thought the 486 had a FPU on die?

Has a PCIMA slot, and a bright greyscale screen.

Keyboard is pretty good too.

Too bad the display is mono, would have been nice for gaming.

There were 2 486s - the SX and DX. I believe the SX lacked an FPU.
