Missed opportunity on Fujitsu’s part. 😔 Still a pretty cool share!

It would be nice to know if this is a working key.

must have been used in medical imaging right? Fuji and Siemens both make medical imaging technology but I wasn't aware they ever collab'd
eppic123@reddit
They've had a joint venture from the late 90s until the late 2000s, because both, Siemens Nixdorf and Fujitsu, were struggling with sales. They just made normal consumer and enterprise computers; PCs, laptops, monitors, PDAs, servers, etc. Fujitsu eventually bought the remaining Siemens shares.

Un souvenir 😁🤣🤣🤣

These notebooks had nice velour patches on the back and were very comfortable to hold. It's a big loss that Fujitsu decided to stop consumer computers.

Right up there with the withdrawal of IBM from the same market. I was a ThinkPad man and I miss them still. The ChiCom ThinkPads are a disgrace.

Panasonic is still building their let's note line with minor changes since some time around 2005. It is by all means not cheap Once my current laptop will decide to give up, I will get one :)

Panasonic is a good one, my old boss liked to mess with people by knocking their ToughBook to the ground because their shock-mounted hard disk could shrug off this treatment. Really impressive, the hard disk drive is mounted in a 1/2" thick rubber gel block. I suppose the newer ones don't need this trickery thanks to solid-state storage. I can't be the only one to notice that desktop computing has come full circle, with the computer starting as a box of cards with no disk drives, to machines with multiple removable and fixed disk drives, optical and tape drives, and now we've come back to the computer being nothing more than a box with cards in it again.

lol is that a real 98SE key?
Also, anyone remember the Bill Gates' Personal Super Secret Laptop book?

Cool! As a child, I had a lifesize cardboard VT100 that my father brought home from work. I still sometimes miss it even though I have a VT101 and a VT180 now. And a VT62 besides.

Nice. It's like those dummy notebooks at Ikea and other furniture stores, they all look like they're from the 90s for some reason.
