Even the lightest old APL computers I am familiar with, the Ampere WS-1 (Japan 1985) and the MCM 70 (Canada 1974), were giants compared to the Psion 5.

I am pretty sure you weren't thinking of the IBM 5100.

The Ampere WS-1 strikes me as familiar but I thought it was much smaller than that. Nice find.
