I think the PC4 was a "laptop" in the vein of the original Tandy 100
series. (i.e., small LCD screen, built-in basic program suite). What
made it unique was that it also had built-in support for transferring
files to and from Apple IIs, or PCs, or Macs depending on what version
you bought.

Randy is right about Laser also making PC clones. Laser seems to have
dabbled in just about everything :-)
