A blue informational placard on a wooden surface displays the text "Apricot Portable 1984" and "The Apricot Portable, produced by the British company Apricot Computers, is the first computer that had the ability to use speech recognition for input/output. The speech software had the capability to recognize only 4088 words, however, only 64 words could be held in RAM at any time. The computer also featured an 80-line LCD screen, a wireless keyboard, and a wireless mouse (called a light pipe) that communicated with the unit by using an infrared link."
