I got to use one, and my impression was that it an expensive, impractical, heavy, underpowered machine with a low contrast lcd that made the cursor difficult to see when it was in motion. It was also cool, futuristic, like nothing I’d seen before. It was a novelty, people crowded around it.
But you’d have been better off lugging around an SE/30.
My understanding was that the Macintosh Portable was an awful product, because it was just too big and the screen wasn't backlit. I never saw one myself, though.
