- with new technology...
  you can stick 8 processors or more in that briefcase, making a portable high-end computer.
  
  I don't know if the one shown has super capabilities, but you never know...

- huh?
  look at the dates on the pictures, pal. A super video mapping out the history of the laptop from the bulky slow models of just 20 years ago up to the sleek models of the present day and the future. Just watch the video and enjoy.

- The Briefcase
  Yeh, something reminicent of the early 80s, however, it does like stylish in business man sense, and it is touchscreen, as long as it is superlight I wouldn't care

- To ComputerClips:
  I can picture that selling to businessmen, it seems that it would be a pretty desirable style, but it would not be worth Microsoft's or Apple's time to produce. I doubt it would sell well since our present day society is in love with small and light electronics. The MacBook Air certainly took the cake on recent laptop releases because of its size.

I remember...
I remember most of the old machines - all were amazing at the time compared to the desk-sized minicomputers they were replacing. i give this a 5. People complaining of blurry text need better video software (VLC?) or should adjust their monitors.

tit
Came to mind - Took less than 20 years to from a cargo case kB computer to a envelope thin information giant.

But the 1908 Ford Model-T does same MPG as the average car today - 100 years later. :-S

i give you 5 stars
but you disappointed me because the text is too blury and in some of the images it can't be understand.
By C.T.A. 1211364687 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove ~~4712109~~
- cheers
  thanks for the 5 Stars, i apologies sincerely, i think they cropped my resolution even lower, it seems you need to hit the download button to get a better resolution of the vid.
  
  thanks again for the 5 stars, and keep watching my vids
  By computerclips 1211414033 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove ~~8913187~~
- .
  sorry, but i don't use the metacafe app, so i won't download, but next time try to make the text bigger and somehow to be easy to read (like white text with black stroke) or create the video at a low resolution (like 320x240 for web)

I've still got my old Osborne...
It's in perfect working condition and nearly mint. Wonder if it worth more thatn 20 bucks? I love the old technoligy! I've collected every Atari, Pong System, Nintendo WITH the Robot (remember that?)... Good stuff. Thanks for bringing back a memory or two. Think I'll go fire up the ol' Osborne now... :)
