Laptops In History - The Osbourne 1

When we see how sophisticated and sleek the laptops are these days, we tend to forget and keep on complaining about today’s laptop.

Personally I feel laptops have leap through giant footsteps to be it is today and when I look back I very grateful to own a laptop that is so easy and portable.

Today I’ll be talking about the Osbourne 1.

As you all know, the Osbourne 1 is the first successful portable computer ever made.

The Osbourne 1 Computer

The Osbourne 1 was created in 1980 by Adam Osbourne who was also a computer book author and publisher. He has a big vision that one day computers are made to be portable …. and that vision has came true with today’s portable laptops.

The computer was price at US$1795 at that time, consisting of of a set of keyboard, two floppy disk drives and a credit card sized monitor.
