AST Ascentia 900N & 910N Laptops
The Ascentia 900N and 910N are two older IBM-compatible laptop computers. Both models have a 486 (pre-Pentium) processor and a 3.5" disk drive. Computers of this type are good for many types of applications, older games, and text-only web browsing.

According to wikipedia.org, AST Research, Inc. stopped manufacturing PCs in 1999, was acquired by AST Computers, LLC. then ceased to exist in 2001. For support information on the 900N, 910N, and other portable computers, click here.

DOS 6.22 or Windows 1.x-3.x are probably the best operating systems to use on the Ascentia 910N or 900N. Newer versions of Windows would probably work, but run slowly; Windows 95 might function acceptably.
