I think HP realized that, if someone was going to spend $795 on a product like the HP-65, they better include a hard case capable of protecting that sizable investment when packed in a suitcase. As to color choice, why were/are PCs almost universally tan or beige? It's the safe, conservative choice. Imagine if PCs had been pink!

Oh, they called those Apples.
