An HP mistake.  More seriously, HP's first "PC" was a 125, a CPM
machine, followed by the 120 (same but had a much smaller foot print).
Then HP came out with the 150, a DOS machine but NOT IBM compatible.
HP finally came out with the Vectra.  The 150 can be used as a
word processor, etc., but I don't feel anyone would have a use for it
unless they had a few of them still in use (perhaps as terminals) and
wanted another for spare parts.

In reference to its being a mistake, it would have given HP a leg up
if it had been fully IBM compatible.
