No video on this one but I was watching Halt and Catch fire tonight and the Vectrex was mentioned by one of the main characters to inspire a bunch of engineers to invent a portable computer. The target weight for the new portable PC was 15 pounds The laptop I'm writing this on weighs 3 lbs. I remember my father bringing home a laptop from work in the late 80's. It had a monochrome screen (green) and it was rather heavy. I think it's battery lasted an hour. I wonder what the handheld Vectrex would have weighed?

That's cool. I haven't seen that episode yet. It'll be cool to hear the Vectrex mentioned. The show, by the way, is quite good.
