Compaq Portable I Plus

This is a video of me demonstrating the Compaq Portable I(one) plus.

I forgot to mention it has 256KB of RAM.

I also got the date wrong on this one. It was released in 1983, but design started in 1981.

Had one, but my jealous hearted brother gave it to charity behind my back and I've been scarred for life ever since! It was my first computer back in the early 80's while studying computer science and I LOVED it...  *sobbing inconsolably* Thanks for sharing yours...

I found a Portable 286 (101710) "Gold Plates" on Craig's list. It has some memory errors though. I'll try to fix it, I think its bank U25 that's bad.
