The Texas Instruments Portable Professional Computer (TIPPC) is a portable version of Texas Instruments Professional Computer (TIPC),[1] and are devices that were released on January 31, 1983. The TIPC is a desktop PC and the TIPPC is a fully compatible, portable version of the TIPC, and both machines were DOS-compatible,[2] but not IBM PC compatible.

It came with a 14", 720x300 pixel color monitor, had 512 KB RAM, and contained state-of-the-art, cutting-edge[citation needed] features, including industry-standard software support, easy expandability[citation needed], a superior and user-friendly[citation needed] QWERTY keyboard, and natural language database options.

The TI Portable Professional Computer was one of the first portable computers available with a built-in color screen (optional),[1] and one of the first portable computers that could be connected to an Ethernet network, with the addition of one of 3Com's first Ethernet cards.[3]

Additionally, both the TIPC and TIPPC were equipped with voice recognition software, allowing the user to speak basic commands to the computers. Both computers also featured an Ethernet card, a new device developed in 1983 by 3Com.
