ScuzzBlog: Diaries May 2018 Entry 5th May 2018: Post: 3 Compaq Portable - The original first one Bit like the Osborne this but a little easier to store having square edges. The sits on its keyboard at the bottom and has these clever slide bays for power and expansions plus cables. The unit has one or two floppy drives adjacent the main screen plus the retractable keyboard. All very basic but again a weight and a half Compaq Portable made in the USA around 1984 ( 1983 USA ) Full stroke keyboard plus numpad Uses the Intel 8088 running at 4.77 MHz RAM is 128 Kb up to 256 Kb The screen is green phosphor The OS is MS-DOS 1.1 I have resisted both cleaning and running this computer. My failure this week with the Osborne and Amstrad have left me a touch nervous.
