Post a pic of your first notebook/portable PC, then your last...

Used this one while in the Navy to order repair parts. The yellow background with green text made it seem new and exciting.

Data General One

Wow, wasn't that hard to google it up!

BUT, if you really want to get down into it - I was rocking this thing before the Bondwell 286. I recall programming assembly in it before I learned assembly on the VIC-20 But I do recall assembly on the VIC-20 happening before kindergarten. Might have been BASIC, and I figured out what ASM was on the 6502 (c-64), which is actually more likely because I had that thing for years and years. Sort of my introduction to microprocessors. Pity my 3rd grade teacher didn't understand much of it when I brought the tandy in for show and tell:

If you count the IPT:

Otherwise:

And my future portable:

First this, courtesy of work. Was IBM back then (T42):

Then came two XPS M1330. Nice laptop when it worked, but it usually doesn't, so lets fast forward to this -

Well I've never been much of a laptop user. My first one was bought only about 5 or 6 years ago and I now have a 2nd one so there's not a huge gap between these:

Bought them both a week or two ago

Sick HP 200LX. I lusted after those nigh around 1994-95. No WAY I could have got one as a high school student.

I still have it. It's a neat little machine, and I've tried to think of a use for it, but I keep drawing a blank :^D It's a great form factor, but it's just so damned old at this point. I could see something like that having a solid niche, even today. I'd buy one at the right price. It's like an iphone, with a surprisingly usable keyboard.

First pair of laptops I've ever owned. I don't like laptops that much.

 

[Pliablemoose]

First pair of laptops I've ever owned. I don't like laptops that much.

Truth be known, I don't either, I haven't really ever found a keyboard I like (for tactile feedback) , a keyboard layout I like, they're a pain to mod other than simple stuff, like adding RAM or putting in a different HD, the list goes on...

They've been a backup computer for me if my desktop goes down. And don't get me started on slow ass netbooks with Microsoft's arbitrary limitations on specs so they don't crowd traditional laptop sales.

Lenovo T400 (Meh, the screen quality is not in the same ballpark as the T43p's Flexview):

I remember reading a story online of a soldier using 95lx for artillery calculations in the first gulf war. Not sure if that helps you

 

[ViviTheMage]

I have a few T42's, and a T60p...I rarely use them, my iphone is plenty capable, as is my desktop, haha.

And my D630, and Dell E6400 from work.

My first laptop was some old Pent 4 Toshiba.

 

[Nitemare]

First and only, a netbook

just don't need anything that big and powerful for portable use.

That being said, it has 2GB of memory an addon HD card that will let it do 1080P and I will most likely get a larger hard drive from 160GB to 500GB or so.

Current is a work thinkpad t60.


last? Well, I imagine it'll be an implant of some sort.
