  • i used to have one of these dont know were it went unfortunately.

    one interesting thing was this laptop was developed for military and was one of the first devices to feature a orange plasma screen.

    also the construction is very good all magnesium alloy casing.

    built in mouse designed with roller wheels which is strange.

    i read somewhere that one of these fell out of a military helicopter and survived.

    windows looks interesting on them..

  • I wonder where I can find non functional GRiD lappys, I love their design!

  • Nice laptop

    Im have two XT grid laptops...

  • You are a lucky man to have that machine, They are very rear, I have been looking for one for a while. Such excellent condition.

  • i had one couple years ago then i took it apart and junked it lol

  • @tiberianfiend Even more badass: some of these were designed to military specs. Those had a big X engraved on the casing, to show the user where to shoot to destroy the hard drive if the laptop was in danger of being captured.

  • That looks pretty bad-ass. The design has aged a lot better than other laptops of the era (like Toshibas, for example).

  • Just bought one for 1 Dollar today!

  • @macintoshgermany This is actually an early plasma screen hence the clarity.

  • Do you have the software to run the USCM Sentry Guns? (Aliens :) )
