3"?
or 3.5"?
a european machine could be either.


Along similar lines, back in the USA, Elcompco built TRS80s, then IBM
5150s, into Halliburton attache cases, along with 5"-8" monitors, drives,
etc.
Adam Osborn drank a glass of our champagne at our Computer Faire booth
and admired the machine, a few hours before announcing that his machine
was the first ever portable microcomputer.  (Even if he didn't take the
Elcompco machine seriously, what about the IBM 5100?)
