In 2005, a British student sold 1 million pixels on milliondollarhomepage.com for 1 dollar each.
Within 1 year all pixels were sold.

regularly do my thoughts turn to the 1997 eMate 300 from Apple - which I actually got to play with as my dad was working in edtech sales for Apple at the time.

today's successful project: I just took apart this Newton eMate 300's battery pack, popped in 4 new cells, and soldered it back together; now it's charging, and seems to hold charge!
was lucky enough to get one in pristine condition too!!!

Anyone into old laptops and laptop-like devices? I have more than a few, ranging from "about this useful" to "can still be used as a workhorse today." This is an Apple Newton eMate 300, more of a PDA disguised as a laptop and targeted at the education market, from 1997.

Hey, @cara.city! If you have a moment, would you please make a post outlining the eMate 300 battery swap/refurb you recently performed? Thank you!

Who remembers the Apple Newton MessagePad? This is an Easter Egg they threw into later models based on a Doonesbury comic strip that was lampooning the poor handwriting recognition in the early models.

I tried to explain the ZX Spectrum to my son. It didn’t go well
