Nifty little beast if a bit heavy. Certainly not as portable as modern
day laptops. It was issued to me sometime in the very early 80s as I
needed to take work home on a regular basis. Later it became redundant
when I had a full WAN connected system installed at home. Could do all
the work from my study! Very handy.
Nowadays laptops are issued complete with a docking station at the
office and, in my case, at home.
