Samsung SENS 700 - Home
The SENS 700 was released in 1995, and was the successor to the NoteMaster 486P. It shared the same case but came with a sound card, and also had a DX4-100 processor option. The photo on the right shows the SENS 700 mounted in its docking station, which includes a CD-ROM drive.
This laptop was sold rebranded as the AT&T Globalyst 200S, and with minor case changes as the AST Advantage! Explorer DX4-100, also known as the Advantage! Explorer 212.

Common Faults & Maintenance
These laptops are fairly well built and reliable, at least as far as I can tell. I've yet to see a hinge failure but that may still happen. The biggest issue these will have is that the VARTA CMOS battery will leak and eventually break something. It's located above the hard drive bay and NOT right over the motherboard, but the corrosion can and will still wick its way over with enough time. Get it out ASAP.
