An early history of the PowerBook
Whether you like or use Apple computers or not, it's hard to resist the draw of the PowerBook. They're simple, they're thin, they're a beaut. From the humble roots of the Sony-contracted Asahi project, to the groundbreaking Tim PowerBooks (aka the PowerBook 140 and 170), to the sleek minimal aluminum lappies we've got now, Apple's secured a unique place in the history of portable computing — which LowEndMac chronicles in their early history of the Apple laptop, called Birth of the PowerBook. Take a step back, if you will, to a time when Apple's logo was multi-colored and they were announcing products at a little trade show called Comdex.
