Dunno about that, it's 100% true - Applied Systems & Peripherals, from Elsham Wold industrial estate in North Lincolnshire. They also made a few other products - saw at least two genlocks come out of that company while I was there.

I made demo production disks that we sent out to potential customers - kinda like scene demos but which featured the products. I'd love to get my hands on some of those disks but I'm afraid they're gone now.

The thing is, the Reform does all the hard parts of making it into a laptop. Screen drivers, battery management, keyboard/mouse integration, case, etc.

Ok I take it back. You've got to admit though it sounds like a tall story. A laptop Amiga made of wood for £3000 - three were made - and a travelling carpet salesman snapped one up!!!

Oddly battery tech is good enough now to use an actual A1200 motherboard but as it will be paired to the LCD display tech no need for real chipset on a shrunk mb

To continue on that MNT Reform fancy, it seems they already have a board in progress for something like this:

So then the question is mostly would one of the various Amiga FPGA Cores be portable?

Yeah the Reform is nice, would like one for myself,
but the topic of this post was Real Amiga Portable.

Have a spare Amy board here, I'm tempted to start a project.. ;)

And as a little side note, I did a request a couple of years ago
if Mr.A(creator of Amy/Denise) could consider making an Amiga laptop PCB.
No answear yet, but who knows! He got the skills to pull it off.
