Is the Toshiba SPARC LT is a laptop or a transportable?  I've read the
new version has a electroluminescent display.  EL displays look great,
but they're pretty power hungry to run on batteries.

There was an article in Unix Today (20-Aug-90), stating that a San
Diego based company, Research, Development and Innovations announced a
battery powered SPARC called Brite Lite weighing in at 11 pounds and
approx $10K for a high end configuration.
