Osborne 1
The Osborne 1 was the first commercially successful
portable
microcomputer
, released in April,
1981
by
Osborne Computer Corporation
. It weighed 23.5 pounds (10.7 kg), cost
US$
1795, and ran the then-popular
CP/M 2.2
operating system
. Its principal deficiencies were a tiny 5 inch (13 cm) display screen and single sided, single density
floppy disk
drives whose disks could not contain sufficient data for practical business applications. Its design owed much to that of the
Xerox NoteTaker
, a prototype developed at
Xerox PARC
in
1976
.
