Tell Steve Jobs when you get to heaven that a Kaypro was the first notebook...and still better than a Mac. :-)
Aren't you forgetting Adam Osvorne and the Osborne computer? I did my thesis on one of those with Wordstar 3, coupled with an NEC Spinwriter.

Ah, memories! I used to get the First Osborne Group newsletter in the mail, even when the most numerous CP/M machines around were Commodore 128s.

Osborne Computers was in my house with dad owning one. In our family room, we got a picture of my dad next to a 50s style IBM computer. My boys can’t believe their computer is more powerful then that IBM.
