Grammar

Do it later

1) We will have lunch and after that we will repair the computer.
2) We will have lunch and we will repair the computer afterwards.
3) We will have lunch and we will repair the computer later.
4) We will have lunch and we will repair the computer after.

Are all these sentences correct?
I think '4' does not work.

Do they all mean the same?
Do any of them imply that we will necessarily repair the computer right after having lunch? I think '1' implies that, but not the others.

Gratefully,
Navi.
