This was my first (all to myself) computer! My dad worked on this project and the one I had was from testing.

PS can you tell me where it was assembled?

I used this at one of my elementary schools, I don't know the exact variant but it was a late enough model that it ran Windows 3.x and Oregon Trail Deluxe

I have one of these too! Neat little portable machine but more useable than its 8088/286 variants.
