Hope someone has an idea... looking for an older laptop, under 800Mhz
is fine, which is very OS/2-friendly and has both mouse AND keyboard
ports on the back (preferably on the laptop itself, not on a docking
station).

My Thinkpad A30 works pretty well, 1Ghz P-iii.

Most laptops have only 1 PS/2 socket but you can buy Y shaped splitters that
allow both mouse and keyboard to be used.

Doh.

Didn't think of that! Reason is, I'll be buying two or three of these
for a little 'farm', and hooking them all up via a
screen/keyboard/mouse switch box.
