a closeup of a toshiba libretto, a small portable computer, the size of a paperback book. the screen is running 'GWCATTE.BAS' which is the outline of discatte in random colors, designed for gwbasic. resting on the keyboard are two casio loopy christmas stickers (one with santa with a large sack, the other is a squirrel atop a cake adorned with santa and berries and a small tree), and a small toy plastic pink laptop with lenticular face and yellow keys "CATTOP". behind it all is a backdrop of cat print towels.
Merry Xmas from the catte family ππΎπ

closeup of the corner of an hp omnibook 300, showing a round domed button with a mouse icon. that is, a mouse the animal. a stylized silouette of a wedge shaped rounded body, with tail underneath and a round ear. left of it is the microsoft windows logo with two 'tm' and one 'r' symbol. needs more honestly. below that is the usual print/scroll/pause keys, and a blueish grey on/off key. a dash of color in an otherwise typical black plastic machine.

a very bluegreen hp omnigo with a doodle of fluffy. the lcd contrast is low and greenish grey with monochrome 1bit pixels. the drawing is crude and made of squiggles, kind of like a muppet character. the eyes are round with long lines for pupils and the ears are close together, with fluff sprouting out beside them.

close up of the right corner of an omnigo, showing its cool 'geos' logo, over some rich-guy-green plastics, the lcd panel has a 'rotate' icon and just above that 'graffiti' is visible. the keys are tiny an similarly wedge shaped to the previous atari portfolio. the hinge is curious, hinting that the device has two degrees of flexibility... hmm
