Thank you for posting the pic of Adam Osborne and his Osborne 1. Don't forget, he had two other tries: Paperback Software, which got him sued by Lotus for its 1-2-3 "look and feel" and after that went belly-up, he tried to make money by manufacturing in India. On that one he might have just been ahead of his time.
Sweet memories...the Osborne1 was my first pc.
