Airis

Airis Computer Corporation (originally Pair Computer Corporation) was a short-lived mail-order American computer company active from 1989 to 1993. Its only product, the Airis VH-286 notebook, was widely anticipated for its slim yet powerful design and long-battery life, owing to the use of disposable C batteries as its primary source of power. The product was met with a number of delays owing to FCC regulations and other unspecified reasons. Airis collapsed in 1993, amid the conclusion of a trademark infringement lawsuit with Harris Corporation; Airis' rights to their namesake trademark lapsed in late 1992. Both Byte and PC Magazine claim that Airis never sold any units of the laptop.
