[definite list of stuff to lust after snipped]
So anyway, I sorta feel like I could not add another
machine and still have
a collection of portables that covers the important ones, plus a bunch that
were kinda weird or personally significant.
But, I'm certainly no expert, so there may very well be some that I'm
missing that are important. I know I'd like to get a Z88 and a Poquet PC,
an Original Compaq (I've got a Compac [sic] but that's not the same thing).
Can anyone else think of some I should be looking for?
Hmm. Just thinking about portables in my own collection....
Convergent Workslate
- Unfortunately mine has no power supply or documentation, so
it's untested and thirsty. What do I feed it?
Gavilan
- I'm in the middle of inventorying what seems to be copies of
manuals, schematics, test plans, memos, and miscellaneous
papers. With them I received a Gavilan SC computer, also
untested 'til I wade through the documentation to figure out
what it expects for power.
HP 110 (Portable)
HP Portable Plus
- These are useful, too, for several hours of typing away from a wall
plug.
HP Integral PC
- Unix in ROM
Osborne 3
- Somebody please tell me I don't have the *only* one in the world!
Osborne 4 (Vixen)
- Hey, if you're interested in collecting the whole set....
