Alan Kay was one of my Dad's graduate students. Part of his research on the DynaBook involved building cardboard mock-ups in various form-factors and weights, and getting people to carry them around during their day (and then report on the level of hassle involved). At various times I carried probably a half-dozen different "models" to school for the day -- I was in 2nd grade at the time.
