>Osborne announced his "Executive" machine with superior features at a Personal Computer World Show in London in 1982. This killed sales of the original machine, but the much-hyped new model failed to appear in any quantity before the company went belly-up in September 1983. Compaq inherited the design and produced their first portable machine in 1983.

Didn't know about the Compaq point, although I remember reading about the Compaq portable.
