Last week I received a catalog from Bell Atlantic which included replacement batteries for the AT and the two Compaq '286 machines: p/n IB5253 PC/AT p/n CQ5280 Compaq Deskpro 286 p/n CQ5114 Compaq Portable 286 All three are priced at $27.95 The telephone number is 1-800-523-0552. They accept Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. #include
