Wow!

 

I help run a computer museum, and we have this one laptop advertisement that I found so hilarious. It shows a woman in a business suit (80s style squared shoulders + pads) carrying this laptop with ease. Only problem is, I picked up said laptop and needed two hands to manage such a feat; and certainly did not look anywhere near as relaxed as she did.

I'm sure there's an innuendo in there somewhere if I was feeling childish enough....

Wow a 286. Didn't know they made laptops back when these were out. I still remember my first desktop which had a 286, a black and yellow monitor, and a dotmatrix printer that you could hear 2 floors away when it was printing.

 

My first laptop was my Dell Inspiron 8500, about 7years old now.
Pentium 4M 2.4Ghz, 2Gb PC3200, 160gb 5400rpm, 15.4" 1680x1050, nvidia go4200

However I found much older laptops.
I have a Northgate.
Pentium 80386 at 25MHz
120mb harddrive (apparently compressable from 85mb to 120mb, I havent an idea how the drive can change capacity)
DOS 3.1 I think, still has a working battery, 3 mb of memory (2mb removable)
integrated neomagic graphics card. I think its 9", and it has a floppy drive in it.

I also have a Canon with a built in printer, I cant remember the model number.
It has a cirrus logic processor (i think its around 30mhz), 4mb of memory, 250mb harddrive, I think its 11"

K-TRON

 

My first laptop was one my bro gave me,it was a petium 3 700mhz,30 or 40meg HD,32 megs ram,very small screen,im not sure how correct the specs are but you get the idea.I thought it was the coolest pc i ever had....

 

286. Sweet. I remember messing about with Ramdrive.sys to get my 286 with 2 x 5 1/4 inch disk + no HDD to run Battlechess. Oh, you're going to put me in reminiscence mode....

 

My dad had an authentic IBM PC, but I'm not old enough to remember using anything pre-Pentium.

First laptop was a 1999 Dell Latitude CPt C. 400MHz Celeron, 128MB SDRAM, 4.8GB 4200RPM HDD, XGA display... don't think I actually got it 'til 2001 or 2002, but it's real nice having your own computer. Still have it, still works, runs XP about as well as an Atom-based netbook, even have a picture:

512 MB RAM (later upgraded to 1.25 GB)
9 cell battery
Windows XP Home

It was a great laptop. The sound was lightyears ahead of anything back then, thanks to the the built in sub. It still beats any laptop sound that I have encountered. I wish I could have a sub built into my future Vaio.

The battery life was great; over 4 hours on a 17" laptop. The only problems I ever had were one power cord problem (it got damaged), one hard drive failure, and two different occasions of the hinges and LCD panel case (bezel?) getting all messed up. The first hinge issue, the hard drive, and the power cord were all fixed promptly. I cannot believe how great Dell's service was. The hard drive and power cable arrived to me within 1 to 2 days after the tech support chat session. The hinges were fixed with the in home repair and the tech was a very friendly guy. I never got the hinges fixed the second time because my warranty ran out and I was in the market for a replacement.

My first was some old Dell Latitude that my dad's company pretty much threw away and ended up falling into my hands. It was, sadly, a large improvement over my old desktop. It had a Pentium III 433MHz processor, 128MB RAM, and 20GB 4200RPM HDD.

 

Compaq Presario something or other
14.1" glossy widescreen
1 GB Ram
100 GB or so
Sempron processor (2GHz or so I think)
Some integrated video chip

Bought this back in 2005 for $700, I'm very fuzzy on the complete details. Owned 4 laptop since it.

 

hp dv7t

specs are below.

 

black and yellow monitor , I NEVER NOTICED that there were black and yellow monitors lol
ah yah a u have a nice dinasour

 

man can u please teach me "how to make a betttery survive for about 10 years lol" , this is really a record trust me

 

My first laptop was a laptop my dad used at work for controls until one day he was using it on a roof and it started to snow. Well, that was the last of the LCD inverter board. So I ended up with this thing on a desk and a monitor. Work pretty well for me, I was only 7 at the time.

It was a Dell 386 @ 30mhz, 4MB ram, 50 or 60MB hdd, it had Windows 3.1 on it at first but my dad tried to load 95 on it, from floppies

Took over 4 hours to install. I mostly played this old Solitaire card game on it, and Minesweeper.

After that, I had a Daewoo 486 75MHz laptop with a 10" display, 8mb ram and a 500MB Hdd. It was one of those old STN displays that had major ghosting, but it wasn't as bad as his Toshiba Satellite 2060CDS that he had for work at the time.

After that, my dad got me a Dell Latitude XPi CD with a P150, 32MB ram, 2GB Hdd, 12" Display, trackBALL, and a CD Rom. The battery was screwed, but I didn't care. I was only 12 or 13 at the time I believe. Best Christmas gift ever lol

Now that I am working, but still living at home, I have owned quite a few laptops. I just cant believe how much technology has evolved, its pretty amazing when you think about it.

 

Lol, oh yes - installation from floppies..... Even office 95 (or was it 97?) was available on floppies. 31 of them if I remember correctly. It wasn't until you got to 28 or 29 that you found one that was corrupt too.....

Not like DOS 3.1 which was 2 or 3 disks. Certainly no bloatware back then.

 

My First Laptop was FS Amilo Xi 1554
Still Very good laptop 17'' LCD
CPU: T7200 2GB
RAM: 2GB (upgraded 4GB showed 3385)
HDD:2x120GB
GPU:ATI Radeon X1900
