I was thinking more of the battery in the original Mac

Yes, that was my guess, too. Only laptop-/style/ portable I ever even
heard of with a lead-acid battery. *Gorgeous* monochrome active-matrix
LCD, too. Stunning for its time, still good today.
But a bit too modern for Tony! I mean, it has a GUI and everything.
1989 was just yesterday...
