The HP 110 was released in 1984 and together with the Gavilan, the Grid Compass and the Sharp PC-5000 one of the first clamshell laptops. The HP-110 is equiped with a 8086 16-bit CPU which is much more powerful than the 8088 for example used in the HP-150. This was the good occasion for Hewlet-Packard to introduce a laptop computer when IBM and Apple were not yet on this part of the market. The HP-110 is somehow compatible with its big brother, the HP-150, and can communicate with HP "calculators" like the HP-41c.
