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