Reply to comment by notacanuckskibum in This was a high end laptop in 1989. It’d cost 12,000 $ in today’s prices by Read_Icculus_

Yeah that’s it. The keyboard folds down and you have the little yellow monochrome screen on the left with the drives on the right. Keyboard connects with what appears to be a phone jack. It even has a carry case that zips up around it, but I can’t imagine lugging one of those around. Damn thing must weigh at least 20-30lbs.

Yes. More a luggable than a laptop. But we were heading into rural Norway with Land Rovers and stuff. The ability to bring a computer of any type along was mind blowing at the time.
