Here's another weird MS-DOS portable #retrocomputer from my collection, the Sotec PHC-16.
It's a "lunchbox" form factor with an 80C88 CPU, 256K RAM, an infrared wireless keyboard and a gorgeously readable gas plasma display.
Like my Apricot, I've not managed to get this one to fully boot either, and the 5.25" disk drive is very difficult to get at.
It does have a terminal emulator built in to ROM which I'm trying to get working, but no luck yet!
@domr Yes indeed! Nice! All through the 90s I was writing software 12 to 16 hours a day, nearly 7 days a week. 486-based lunchboxes just like this were my thing because I adored the monochromatic and perfectly sharp plasma display. Back then I had extremely sharp vision and fuzzy displays fatigued my eyes. Plasma pixels are perfect razor-sharp dots.
Brings back memories.
