I had a laptop in 98.

Ran DOS, not even Windows. B&W screen, if you wanted color, you could press on the screen and get a glorious rainbow. There was no mouse integrated into the laptop. Instead there was a serial trackball mouse. It weighed probably 19 pounds and had an impressive 45 minute battery life.

It also may have fallen off the back of a truck. Computers were way less trackable back then.
