World's First Laptop PC

Toshiba believed that it would have a popular product if it pursued mobility, smaller size, and power saving to make a portable computer that was fully compatible with standard machines.

A team of engineers started development of a laptop PC in April 1984.
At first, the engineers thought that the project would be impossible to complete.
However, they were eventually able to overcome the various problems and somehow achieved their goal, thanks to the fact that most of the key components that went into building the smaller laptop PC were developed in-house, including semiconductors, a 3.5-inch floppy disk drive, and a large liquid crystal display.
In April 1985, Toshiba released the world's first laptop PC, the T1100, in Europe.
