I was playing Rebel Assault on one of these, with an external CD-ROM drive. The first Laptop / Notebook I knew.
1988 - The Toshiba T5200 extends the Toshiba family of portables to the limits of modern PC technology. Performance equivalent to the most powerful desktops combined with true Toshiba portability. The result: an effective 386 in a truly portable package. A number cruncher’s dream.
High-end performance
The T5200 gives power users an alternative. Power features start with the Intel 80386 microprocessor running at 20 MHz. A 32 KB cache memory ensures that the microprocessor achieves the highest performance possible. The standard 2 MB RAM can be expanded to 8 MB without using an expansion slot. You can have either a 100 or 40 MB hard disk drive with access times as low as 25 milliseconds. All these features combined with Toshiba portability add up to one thing: effective speed.
Brilliant graphics
A special feature of the T5200 is standard VGA graphics. Full VGA resolution can be displayed simultaneously on both the built-in plasma display and an external VGA monitor. On the plasma display, colours are displayed as 16 grey scales. A VGA compatible colour monitor can show the full range of VGA capabilities. And the plasma display can be detached, if needed, to give unimpaired viewing of the external monitor.
