The Future

Throw away your laptops I have all the power now. This is the future of computing available in the present. The IBM 390 X type 2626, just check the specs

•Intel Pentium III 450 MHz (this chip can calculate in the region of 2x109 floating-point calculations per second)
•128 MB 100 MHz system memory
•Massive 14.1” XGA active matrix LCD display (with manual brightness slider!)
•6.4 GIGABITE HDD 4200RPM!!!!!
•Combined 1.44” Floppy and 16x CD (actually built into the machine)
•Control of the mouse pointer with a fantastically inventive ‘joystick’ in the centre of the keyboard, no need to carry a mouse around in your pocket like some kind of looser.
•Wireless communication with an IR port.
•Capable of running the latest operating systems with both Windows 98 and Windows NT compatibility.
•All this at an impossibly light 3.5 kg

Here are some pictures of said laptop for you to enjoy, it was such a relief to upgrade from my old Sony Vaio TX. The increased screen size really makes a difference and let’s not forget that my new IBM is MUCH easier on the eyes than my Sony, good riddance I say.







I truly have earned my title of The Laptop King.

I got a good deal when I sold my old Sony Vaio TX2XP so it wasn’t too bad. I still had to sink substantial capital into getting the memory upgraded from 64 to 128, but it was worth it for the performance boost.

Damn, you got the limited edition Windows 98 seal, with the rare double folds on the corners.

Wow. That setup would have burned my old Toshiba Satellite 64 Ram back in 98.

Is that a "ruggedized" laptop? What kind of alloy is in the case? Have you tried dropping it a few feet, considering the advanced technology it should hold up just fine.
