#retrocomputing peeps, did this Mission PC ever actually get made? It's sort of a suit-case sized/shaped computer with built-in display and printer.

@thomasfuchs What is that display? An LCD with a 5.25" floppy drive seems extremely SUS in terms of real world production. Maybe it's a CNC Etch-a-Sketch.

@daswickerman there's been a few computers like that, e.g. Apple IIc with optional LCD display is quite similar in form factor (but has a keyboard)

@thomasfuchs I’ve never seen that one, although I did possess this beauty (for work- it was easier to fax reports at that time!) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_NoteJet
