I was even thinking it was a weird angle and could be a diskette (or something) kind of propped up on the keyboard, reflecting the light to look like a little status panel.? b On Wed, Jan 27, 2021 at 6:25 PM Blake Patterson via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
I'm not sure that's a screen, there.

The unique thing is the LCD under and left side of the main LCD, above

keyboard. I tried google image search for 386 and 486 laptop but nothing came back. My Zenith 486SX laptop has a LCD there but it's flat, and it has a tell tale trackball middle of the machine IIRC. Loved the Zenith laptop, it was sexy.
Still have it, of course.
Without knowing the source. It looks like one of the early Grid laptops. I'm pretty sure the game image has been "photoshopped" onto this image, and the original had more or less bezel than what we see here.

I was sent an inquiry from a visitor to vintagecomputer.net who wanted to know the make/model of this laptop

Anyone have a specific clue? I checked AST, Toshiba, Compaq, Gateway and other laptops I have from that era, nothing matches that little keyboard display window.
