to qualify, it would have to be mass produced, not
just some kludge ;). You know what I mean. In reality
though, the SX-64 may have predated the TIPPC. They
came out the same year, but according to
old-computers.com, the release date was 11/83, and who
knows if it could have been had in color at that point
(there was a mono version). Don't know don't know.
I'll have to do more research...

I'd strongly recommend to NEVER ask "FIRST?"!
The Commodore SX64 was one of the first TO BE MASS
PRODUCED.
But there were MANY before that.
The Elcompco (Model V?) was built into a Halliburton
attache case (like
the drug dealers use), and had provision for
connecting the viewfinder
from a TV camera for use as a portable display.
