Compaq's first computers were portable 'lunchbox' or 'luggable' computers. These computers were/are approximately 1 foot by 1 foot on the side, and approximately 2 and a half feet wide. Some of the portables (the portable and portable 2/II) had CRTs, while some (the portable III and portable 386) had flat single-color (1 bpp, usually Orange) plasma displays. The portables came/could come with internal hard disk drives on .5" shock mount springs; diskette drives, usually 5 1/4" double- or quadruple-density drives; batteries; and/or a dual-ISA expansion chassis, about one full-drive-height wide.
