Solution

The correct option is A 1984

In 1984 Hewlett-Packard Inc. Introduce its first HP-110 laptop computer.

The Hewlett-Packard HP 110 (aka HP Portable) was an MS-DOS compatible portable computer released in 1984. It used a Harris 80C86 running at 5.33 MHz with 272 KB of RAM. It had an 80 character by 16 line monochrome (480 x 128 pixel) liquid crystal display, ran MS-DOS 2.11 in ROM, and had the application programs MemoMaker, Terminal Emulator and Lotus 1-2-3 in ROM.

The HP-110, HP's first laptop computer, was an industry breakthrough. Weighing 8-1/2 pounds, this notebook-size computer had a 16-bit IBM PC-compatible processor. With 384K ROM and 272K RAM, the HP-110 had the largest amount of memory available in a portable computer when it was introduced. Because it ran MS-DOS, it could be linked with an IBM PC or the HP-150 touchscreen computer. Aimed at less technical users than the HP-85 or the HP-75 computers were, it cost $2,995.
