The Powerbook 180 had an Active Matrix LCD screen (much better than the Twisted Numatic LCD screens of the previous models). Also the interface capabilities, external color monitor, external SCSI harddrive, were excellent. The model was highly priased for its design, acquiring the title for the Powerbook 100 of the 10th greated design of computers of all time (PC Worrld, 2006).

This pen tablet pc is in many respects an improved version of the Fujitsu 3400. The VGA port has been replaced by a serial port. The Intel 400MHz Pentium III is replaced by an ultra low voltage 500MHz Intel Celeron. It is equipped with a 15GB hard disk instead of a 6GB disk. As special feature there are three screen options: an indoor-only XGA display, a indoor/outdoor SVGA display with anti-reflective coating, and a SVGA reflective display for outdoor use.

The PS/2 Model N33 SX (also known as PS/2 note N33 SX) was the first notebook-sized computer from IBM which was announced in 1991. This model was based on the AT-bus. Initial price was US$2990.

The ThinkPad is a line of business-oriented laptop computers, originally designed and marketed by IBM. From its 1st release in 1992 on it has been a successful and robust device with a distinct appearance. Reliable enough to be used by NASA in its space mission to repair the Hubble telescope. The early systems used an Intel 80486-chipset, have a monochromatic display and run Windows 3.1 on top of IBM PC-DOS. Later versions followed the common developments by using Windows95, Pentium processor, VGA color display, RAM, IDE Harddisk, all increasing in capacity, speed and/or size. The model 755CEX as shown is somewhere in between this development, not produced in large quantities, but typical for the state of art around 1994 (see specifications).

Kaypro - a firm producing laboratorium equipment - copied the success story of the Osborne computer and made its own Kaypro II computer with similar components: a 2,5 MHz Zilog Z80 processor, 64 kB RAM and two 5,25 floppy drives. The first model was delivered in 1982. The operating system was CP/M. With software the system was marketed as Kaypro 2. Around 1983 it became booming business with 10.000 computers sold per month. Success was especially due to the supplied software, amongst which Basic and games like Pac-Man.

Tandy Corporation made one of the first personal computer to look like a laptop (in the days that laptops were non existing). It was widely used by journalists. The Tandy 200 was powered by a 80C85A CMOS microprocessor. The CPU was low power and enables to use as battery operated device.
The LCD screen could handle 40 columns of text. Graphics could also be displayed in a 240 by 128 pixel matrix on the screen. The software included Microsoft Basic and the Multiplan spreadsheet in ROM.
