Video: IBM 5100 First Portable Computer commercial 1977

Well it has been a while since I posted to this blog, so I thought that this classic commercial from MrClassicAds would be a great way for me to get the ball rolling again:



I love the line "It weighs about 50 pounds". Now that's a portable, or at least that was the standard back when I graduated from high school.
