[@henrychan1039]

Even laptops 30 years ago had more ports than the new MacBook.

[@otamanlvhs]

All laptop companies are getting rid of ports.There's no need for them anymore because everything is getting wireless nowadays.We store things mostly in a cloud.

[@yuqiyuan8411]

teicix not true. Many people still prefer to use peripherals that use ports as they are generally cheaper. If we buy stuff with less ports, we will have to invest a lot more in wireless technologies. Thumb drives are also still very popular and in no way declining.

[@otamanlvhs]

yu qi yuan yeah,but it's slowly changing.I personally haven't used CD drive and all but one usb port and headphone jack in years.There's no need for peripherals when you can just use your cloud instead.

[@fivesquaredyt2521]

Bro, roasted

[@KenjiVdusc]

I miss the printer port, scanner port, 2 PS2 ports, VGA & RS232... it is definitely better to have 10 ports where you connect max. 1 special device, and in case you need a 2nd one you are screwed...

He can tell you a story regarding computers, his friends brother was also sort of around computers too, and I'm pretty sure they both do remember when the internet was Arpanet back in the day. There's a misconception that the internet was "invented", it wasn't really "invented" like some people believe, like I said, my grandfather on my dad's side and his friends brother were around computers when it was still Arpanet, Arpanet evolved into the internet that we know today.

The Powerbook 100 didn't just popularize the trackball, it popularized the design of a palm rest in front of the keyboard, a standard feature in almost every laptop since. Most Windows laptops in the mid 90s had no palm rest, with the keyboard at the very front and either a tiny track ball 'nub' between the keys or no build in pointing device at all.

[@TRMartin]

I think you missed a few things: the Compaq luggable w/ Hercules graphics capability, the intel 386SL chipset that introduced the System Management Interrupt SMI, and NiCad batteries that introduced as usable power density for portability. APM & ACPI also played their part in furthering portability.

[@MrKillswitch88]

Our school got two dozen of those 1999 iBooks and I simply couldn't wrap my head around how we were able to go on the internet without a cable. After all, at home we used a 56K modem installed in a PC. I think the first laptop I ever used was an a 486 model with Windows 3.1 or something which belonged to my grandfather. It had a tiny display, but full color and had a trackball as well as a floppy drive on the side. To me it was amazing, especially since our own computer at home was a pretty clunky desktop with a huge 15" CRT monitor.

First of all, there isn't any pronounciation difference between Kongroo and Congroo, therefore that point is null and void. Second of all, even if there was, the dub is based off the rather shoddy Crunchyroll subtitles (that even the sub author, who also did the Steins;Gate 0 VN admits were shit)

[@TechItOut]

Apple first with built in WiFi. I think not. My Toshiba Portege M300 was released in 1994 was WiFi equipped. It was also a convertible laptop/Tablet PC and ranks as one of the first "Proper" tablets way before Apple's offerings. It even had a stylus

[@theholypopechodeii4367]

I have fallen out of the laptop scene since 2014. Is Alienware still the laptop company which makes laptops at ridiculously high prices compared to its competitors?

[@njsullyalex2744]

Dell still maintains their Alienware brand, but they actually released a second line of gaming laptops, the Inspiron gaming series. This lineup, based on their Inspiron mainstream laptop line, is a line of lower end gaming laptops designed to be the best bang for the buck with gaming performance. I have last year's Dell Inspiron 7559 gaming laptop. This laptop actually cost me less than $1,000, and with its quad core i5 and GTX 960M graphics, it has crushed every game I have thrown at it so far. This years models range from Radeon Mobility RX 460 graphics all the way up to GTX 1050 ti desktop class graphics, and range in price from around $650 to $1,200.

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

4:05 Ah, the PowerBook 100--quite popular among students at the university where I worked at the time. Introduced in 1992 I think it was, along with the gruntier 140 and 170 models, the core guts of the 100 were actually the same as the earlier Macintosh Portable. And even though all these models officially ran System 7.0.1, you could still boot the 100 with System 6.0.7, which was what originally came with the Portable. I heard a story that Sony, who made the 100 for Apple, tried to demand a higher price after the deal had supposedly been agreed. I think Apple did pay up, but then refused to order any more. So only 100,000 of these were ever made.

[@MrKillswitch88]

the form factor still has great potential but my God the specs were cancerous and even more so now. People still don't know what a real laptop is and they just buy the thinnest overpriced toy they can buy only for it to be a hotplate or the screen gets cracked ect. As for me I collect what I can before gems like the XPS M1730 become to rare or too expensive.

[@Montisaquadeis]

Theres always the Dell XPS M2010. 13" is still around and those netbooks seem to have transitioned into Chrombooks now a days. Yeah netbooks were a couple of years before their time to be honest. Now if they would have waited until say tablets became big then they might still be around today.

There seems to be a common theme of apple making something and then everyone else using it (At least for the most part).

[@angrodNumenesse]

I have noticed this as well. Apple seems to be the leader when it comes to innovation and making things that change the way we live. Their mistake is that they insist on producing all their products themselves at ridiculous prices. Along comes competition and Apple quickly ends up comprising just a small portion of the market share. Their answer? Litigation. Unlike the competition which tries to one up themselves and allows the tech to be used by any number of 3rd parties.

[@shempone]

.........what a load of shit

[@Montisaquadeis]

Sorry but Apple never really made anything all they did was Copy something else and market it really well aka Apple has ALWAYS been a marketing genius of a company thanks to Jobs. AKA many of the things they are credited with where taken from others such as the GUI for example. They took that from Xerox for example.

[@shempone]

Apple didnt make anything? They just copied something else??? wow.

A laptop design at 5:10 - 5:18 looks cool!! If only we can see a laptop design like that again with a new high spec built version with a new OS version in it, absolutely I am interest to buy it someday.

GlassTuber Studio's lies these can run crisis at 4K 999fps

[@przemek4101]

My previous PC was bought 10 years ago and it's able to run Crisis. 😉Because the games is also 10 years old and this PC was some sort of high end those days.

[@codexhammer]

How to get rich with time travel : Get a 1000 dollar laptop , travel back in time to 1950 and sell it to the richest person in the world at the time .

[@Kalvinjj]

If you can time travel, ain't it just cheaper to go only a handful of days back and get the right numbers on all kinds of lotteries?

[@CristianMartinez-rg9sz]

Right. You missed out on the creation and evolution that paved the road to the device(s) you take for granted today.

My favorite Laptop/Notebook configuration was a Compaq with a docking station. Connected to the docking station was a large monitor, keyboard, mouse and connection to the network like a normal desktop. You just had to slide the Laptop halfway into the docking station which then automatically pulled it in and make all the connections. You could even "tell" the docking station what time it must eject the Laptop (quite handy in an area with afternoon electrical storms). Unfortunately the docking station was very expensive and all upgrades to Laptops were incompatible with the docking station. I thought it was very mean of Compaq.
