All this talk brings back memories of my Kaypro II - good memories, I might add.
Wasn't that the machine they coined the term: Luggable?

That and the Osborne I (which came first). They were 'luggable' and resembled medium-sized suitcases.

The Osborne 1 had better software, but the Kaypro II had the much larger screen. I wrote my first published porn novel on it.

I then later graduated to the 'Fat Mac' - a Macintosh with 128K of RAM! - and my whole world was transformed.
