I miss the days when every new machine was an experiment to see the best computing model.
And ones better than the current mainstream were pretty numerous.
I used to own a Libretto just like the one on the image. Ran OpenBSD on it a while. Those machines were ridiculously fun. They had this little trackpoint style pointer on the right of the screen to use it in handheld mode. Truly ahead of their time.
We definitely need more computers that are red.

Netbooks have never looked so cool
Cool but can they run Linux
