Looking for some help identifying this laptop, definitely looks old school. Just wondering if anyone on here might be able to help. Thanks!

Toshiba Tecra. There were certain versions of these which have a known problem on the DC-DC board interconnect and it would cause hangs and crashes.

Toshibas Tecra S1? Or a satellite A30?
Defo covering the Toshiba logo as it's in the same location on my A30

Looks like a Toshiba Tecra

S1 to be exact. Have the same one here.

I was not sure of the model number but I remember lusting over them back in the day. It was one of the few laptops that were sold with 1400x1050 and even 1600x1200 screens. But they were priced accordingly and I could not afford one

Parallel, serial, modem, network, and vga ports? Yeah, it qualifies as vintage.

Yeah. It has been a while since I’ve seen the side by side integrated RJ-45/RJ-11 port, even on vintage gear.

The telephone jack (RJ-11) is for the integrated modem and was kinda going out of style even when Windows XP was still relatively new.

I'm pretty sure that's a Toshiba of some sort.

No photo of the front?

No :/ this was all the reference pics I could find

Reminds me of the early 2000 Toshiba Satellites with the Harman Kardon speakers.

It’s the placement of the sticker. First thing I thought. They’re covering the Toshiba logo.
