HP sells a 2MB and 4MB unit. Is the 4MB model worth the extra money over the 2MB Model?
The only difference is the extra two megabytes of internal “disk” storage on the C: drive. It may be cheaper to buy the 2MB model and invest the difference in a bigger PCMCIA flash or SRAM card, or to buy a third-party internal upgrade. 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 memory may be worth the money. Given the relative ease of upgrading the memory on the 200LX these days, it is probably a good idea to go for the 2MB version anyway. If you opt to go with the 4MB version and later decide you want to upgrade to 6MB, 8MB, 32MB, or 64MB, you’ll end up losing 2MB (though some companies may offer a small trade-in).
