... after 40 plus years, it still turns on and runs. I know I used it a bunch in the 80's, so it has survived both the "calendar" test (living in a box for decades, lots of moving abuse), and the "planned obsolescence" test (didn't immediately die after 4 years, or whatever it was back then).
Most of my new computers reach various points of failure much more rapidly, and I don't think many of them would turn back on after 40 years, much less 5 years.
The NI-CAD battery in it still seems to be taking a charge, and I've found wall-warts to work without feeding a bunch of AA batteries into it. Found another M100 on EBAY listed for parts (wanted a spare of the LCD screen & other components), got it in, and *it still works* ... these things are tanks.
Still working with this "laptop" and discovering uses for it, beyond retro "basic" programming.
