Slightly related: the ultimate move prop laptop was from "Twister" where they had sgi laptops. Note that sgi never made a laptop.

However what is even cooler is that someone actually circuit bent a sgi O2 into laptop form factor. Unfortunately the link to the project page is dead, my disappointment is immeasurable.

There's another photo of it in the thread here that didn't make it into the archived version: https://deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?t=5632

I have an O2 in storage and have been meaning to try a rebuild of this for... well, at least a decade at this point. Since I finally have a decent 3D printing setup now maybe I can actually make some progress this winter!
