   I'm partial to the 4P, too.  The 4, 4D, and 4P can run CP/M, Model 4 mode,   
   or Model III mode.  If you want cassette capability, the 4P is not a choice.   
   I'm not sure if the 4D has cassette.  The 4P screen is generally quite   
   readable.  I'd suggest getting a gate array version, with the green screen   
   and clustered arrow keys.  My original 4P needs periodic tweaking of an   
   adjustable capacitor for the 80-column mode.
