That's crazy, how can somebody not know what brand of laptop they...
HOLY SHIT ME TOO
Hey, back in the late 90s I bought a laptop from a reputable seller and had literally no idea who the manufacturer was. Was a pretty good laptop for the era too. The badge on the back of the monitor said "Notebook".
I had to put the product ID code on the bottom into an online search engine - possibly very early Google - to find out it was made by Taiwanese company called Kapok.
Kind of wish I still had it, but I donated it to a good cause years ago.
