Here we have a 30+ year old luggable laptop from Toshiba Japan. It has a 9.6" orange gas plasma display and runs DOS, it is extremely loud and only works on mains power.
Hey mate, good vid. I have a T5200 now for tinkering (it's a beast!) but my first PC was a T3100/20 hand-me-down. I learned DOS (it came with the MS-DOS 5 manual!) and some QBasic. It also had Lotus 123 and WordPerfect. I remember I couldn't figure out how to shut down the Toshiba when I first got it and was terrified to yank the power. My old man sent us to bed and the machine was switched off 🙃. Ran like a tank!
It's real tough to find a camera that will pick up well on one of these screens. So far the best luck I've had was with an old VHS camcorder. (Granted, I'm in the US, so that's using the NTSC standard)

I just had someone bring it in to my store and donated it. Works perfectly and it's so freaking cool.
