Looks like there is another option out there, although "portable" is a
relative term. The web site listed below has a portable DEC workstation
with what appear to be usable specs. Weight on the thing is 27 lbs,
however. In this case, portable means within FAA standards for
overhead-stowable carryon luggage. Better than crating and baggage-checking
a full-sized workstation, but not by much.
We will be looking into this workstation if anyone is interesting in the
outcome.
Thanks again,
