And then there is this C64 based laptop with a 3"
floppy and a EL high
resolution flatscreen, build into a suitcase. It used an actual C64
motherboard..... ( PDC Clipper)
I have never heard of this. Who made it?
PDC, a Hamburg based startup ca. 1984
They went bust as soon as the first machines hit the market.
The machines were made by a Siemens branch in Belgium, which was
desparate for work.
The machine was in no way ready for production. Imagine a suitcase with
a C64 motherboard and around 60 wires soldered to it....
How many of these were made? Do you have a picture?
Compared to the hernia inducing SX-64 it sounds nicer, though. Was it
in colour?
Despite this, I love SX-64s and have four of them. They make the rounds
at shows since it's easier to carry than a computer, monitor, disk drive
and power supply.
