The Five Most Important Apple Laptops - A Contrarian View
Wednesday, September 23 2009 @ 8:24 AM ET | Article Link
by Charles W. Moore

Last Sunday marked the 20th anniversary of the unveiling of the original Macintosh Portable, the machine that started this whole thing off. The ancestor of the PowerBook, iBook, MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro, the 16 lb. Mac Portable, introduced in 1989, was a less than stellar market success, doubtless because it was absurdly expensive at $6,500 ($7,300 with the optional hard drive), and weighed nearly as much as the 17 lb. CPU/monitor unit of the original compact desktop Macs. The fascinating thing is that Apple was able to address the Portable’s weight and bulk shortcomings in an amazingly brief two years, replacing it with the five-pound Sony-built PowerBook 100, and the slightly larger and heftier PowerBooks 140, and 170 in October 1991, which really got things rolling.
