This was great laptop. It was one of the first laptop I had ever used. It had a 4.77/9.4mhz processor and a glorious blue backlit CGA screen.
The CGA screen was really not suitable for games, but it didn't stop my brother from installing a few. In those days, you had to worry about ghosting. Some games would be unplayable because the LCD couldn't refresh quick enough and that would lead to a lot of smearing.
I remembered installing things on it's ram disk and being blown away by the speed. That was until I realized that the data would be completely gone once the battery ran out.
Still, it was great for those typing adventure games.
