The '''Amstrad NC Series''' was a series of A4-sized, portable [[Z80|Z80]]-based computers, released by [[Amstrad]] in 1992-1993. All models featured 64 or 128 KB of RAM, the [[Protext]] word processor, various organiser-like facilities (diary, address book and time manager), a simple calculator, and a version of [[BBC BASICBasic]].
The screen of the first two models (NC100 and NC150) was small, eight rows by 80 columns, and not backlit, but this let the NC100/150 run for up to 20 hours on four standard AA cell batteries. There was an RS232 serial port, a parallel port for connecting a printer, and a PC card socket, by means of which the computer's memory could be expanded up to 1 MB.
