you have opened up a can of worms now...or maybe I have because
of my comment... what is your definition of a computer? My first
thought was the HP65 that was programmable and that was 1974.
Early computers didn't have to have a language like BASIC. They
just needed to be able to run a program that a user could put
in.

With my contemplation of purchasing a new Sony Picturebook, I
was wondering:
What was the first portable computer that weighed less than 
1Kg?
 [[I'm assuming that it'd be older than 10
years, so it should 
be ontopic...]]
 Any pointers appreciated! :-)
Thanks,
