What was your first notebook? Mine was a Tandy 600 in 1985 photo

What was the first notebook you ever had? Mine was a Tandy 600 about 25+ notebooks ago in 1985!!!

That was the first year I got into computers. I also got my first desktop that year. I kept these as a reminder like my first dollar ever made. I bet these computers are older than some of you guys!!!

Let's see yours! I showed a photo shot from my computer room before I got the XPS.

Does a Tandy Model 100 count as a notebook?  My very first actual computer would have to be the Radio Shack Pocket Computer but it's not a notebook.

Mine was an Inspiron 4000. I liked the customized snap outs on that model. At one time I had 5 sets which was silly, considering you can only use one at a time. I still have the original "midnight black" set which I got autographed by the guys at TechTV (now the G4 network). It was a good little laptop, but my new M1330 blows it away. I also have an HP RX1955 iPaq (handheld pocket pc running WM5). While not technically a laptop, I sometimes grab it when I just need to do basic things like check email, surf mobile sites or play games.
