I've found a rare transitional form between the ancient abacus and the
modern laptop: the wooden laptop! OK, it's a pre-prototype mock-up of a
fairly modern laptop. Does anybody recognize the make or model?

It looks somehwat NEC-ish, but might just be a random Taiwanese clone.
And that nifty blue screen effect? Tediously painted by hand. Is there
software out there that can make a pretty good guess at separating
foreground and background? I'd like to just click on an object in a
complex pic, and paste that object into a new pic.
