Osborne’s successful portable computer ran the popular CP/M operating system, came with a word-processor and other office programs, and sold for half the cost of comparable machines. Marketing materials for “luggables” such as the Osborne optimistically featured users carrying the computer as if it were as light as a paperback book.
