From Chris Wheeler, Managing director, Cambridge Computer Ltd Bridge House, 10 Bridge Street, Cambridge CB2 1UE

Computergram (21 November) continues the speculation on Cambridge Computer's product development plans. Whilst the speculation may be enjoyable, I am concerned that no one should be misled. Our position, as previously stated, is that CCL anticipates launching a new PC-compatible portable computer later in 1990. Until such time as we have completed the development phase, and have announced the specification, pricing and availability, speculation in any of these areas remains just that. You can however, be assured that Cambridge will continue to bring outstanding products to the market which will set new standards for performance and value for money.
