Company Profile

Compaq SLT

The SLT is a family of laptops released by Compaq Computer Corporation. The SLT was the first laptop ever released by Compaq, then primarily known as a maker of luggable and desktop computers. The SLT series was the successor to the Portable III and the predecessor to the more well-known LTE.

Docking station
The SLT line was marketed as a desktop replacement and had a matching docking station, which allowed two standard ISA boards to be used with the SLT. The docking station retailed for $999. == Models ==
Battery life
Compaq's main marketing message for the SLT range was its battery life, up to 3-hours minimum. Compaq mentioned this feature in almost all of the SLT literature. Moreover, Compaq released an external battery charger to enable the business user to charge up multiple batteries. == Clones ==
Clones
Victor Technologies offered a clone of the SLT/386 model, model Grid 386PX (BV30E01A). Whilst the Grid 386PX looks slightly different, it was unclear whether the Grid 386PX was a true clone or an alternative OEM product. Acer also offered a clone, known as the AnyWare 1100LX. == References ==
