Stephen Hackett, writing for iMore, takes a walk down memory lane, with a long, lingering look at some great Apple laptops of yore.
Two things come to mind. One, this article really brought back a lot of memories, especially of the PowerBook Duos, one of my all-time favorite laptop designs.
And two, though this wasn’t an Apple product, this did remind me of the Outbound laptop, a Mac compatible laptop produced by some outfit in Colorado that preceded the original PowerBook by a couple of years. This was my first laptop ever. It sported a racy 15-MHz Motorola 68000 processor. Wow!
I still have my PowerBook 180 and it still boots. If you don’t need the internet it’s still pretty speedy, too.
I loved my PowerBook Duo!
I miss the used PowerBook 5300cs we had for awhile, before replacing it with a PB G4. That 5300 had a great keyboard.
I loved the PowerBook G3. Two side bays, and I had two batteries and a zip drive and a CD drive. I could transform it to what I wanted. What a great machine that was.
Loved my Powerbook Duo2300c!

I remember seeing the PowerBook Duo docking station in Jerry Seinfeld’s apartment and thinking it was the epitome of cool.
