I have a Sanyo on loan to me and I have the following comments:

	1) If your looking for an IBM PC compatible, forget it. Most
	   everything that runs on the PC will not run on the Sanyo.

	2) The Sanyo is slowwwwwwwwww. I believe that disk access is
	   not DMA driven and hence a pain to wait for.

	3) The Sanyo is cheap... so if your not looking to be in the
	   mainstream of PC computing, this might be the machine for
	   you.
