    That Compaq portable with the CRT monitor was in the class of computers we used to call luggables. Back in the late 80s, I was given an IBM PS/2 P70 to take with me on an extended business trip -- it was a luggable PC complete with a 10 inch orange gas plasma display and a full size (desktop) keyboard. It was freaking cool. Shame I had to give it back when I returned home.

Finally cleaned house and started updating everything. Nothing at my work older than a core 2 quad now. Still old but not THAT old.

      ​@@lindabryant2695 Don't feel too old, I still use 8" floppy drives. The very first computer I worked on was controlled by a valve system or better known as a Vacuum Tube computer, that was programmed through a Hollerith punch card system. No keyboards or monitors back then, and any mention of a mouse in those days meant you had a definite rodent problem!! We all thought of each progressive upgrade or new system as being cutting edge. Of course the newer generations laugh at us, just like their offspring will do at them! PS, The early 5 1/2" drives had a capacity of only 160 KB (single sided), 360 KB maximum in low density and 1.2 MB in high density came later. You might be getting mixed up with the initial 3.5 Drives, they were 720k capacity. Guess after saying all that if you are as old AF, II must be older than F%&k!!! LOL Have a great day!!

By the time I got my first PC (486 SLC2/66, 4 MB RAM, 200 MB HD and a CD-ROM!) in 1994, 5.25" was generally dead, but I actually got one for it later on just to run old software with. Having said that, my "beast" blew my dad's 286 IBM PS/1 that he had gotten 4 years prior out of the water 😂 (not to mention those Apple II computers I used in grade school with Number Munchers and Oregon Trail).
