The picture on the left features the first ever laptop. It's the Grid Compass 1100 better known as GRiD. This laptop was mainly used by the military and NASA. I believe this could be because of it's price -- the cost of one GRiD was between $ 8000 and $10,000 dollars.The GRiD was designed in 1973, but didn't go on sale until 1982.

Today the laptop has taken on many form factors and is widely available starting at $ 250. This guide features articles published in technology areas throughout the Bright Hub site and designed to help you decide which laptop best suits your needs.
