That is a Compaq Portable. I have one. It was the first portable PC
compatible computer on the market. They made a couple of models, each
one smaller (but not much) than the one before it. The original
portable is an XT clone. Look here for more info:

I recently acquired a rather aged Compaq
"portable" that defies
identification, the plate says Model: Compaq, Serial number: 002027.
Size
is 19 1/2 wide, 15 1/2 deep, 9 1/4 high with a 8 in "green screen".On
the
right side to the rear is a sliding cover over 5 slots, 3 filled, the
left side slides open to expose the fan and switch and provides power
cord storage. It has two 5 1/4 360k drives. The keyboard locks over the
front for transport and it has a leather carrying handle on the back.
Can
anyone provide me any info on this machine
Am also looking for info on a Kaypro 16, Dos machine
Thanks, Rich
