Amstrad PPC640

A pop-up screen and a built-in handle

Resources
I picked this up from an Atari dealer who was going out of business. He wasn't interested in it, but I was. The flip-up LCD screen sold me on it. The built-in handle is pretty darn cool; it says to the world "I am portable! Take me with you!". Unfortunately, I don't have a power supply for it, so I'm forced to run it off the D-cell batteries it uses.
