The STbook, one of the Rarest Atari computers,
It is estimated that only 1000 to 1500 of these
laptops exist. Of course to make it easier
for some people, they were all released in Europe
(some were given to musicians in north
america to try out but never sold)
The STbook was now VERY light, weighing
only 5 pounds which today seems
normal or even a little heavy but back
then computers like the STacy and Laptop Macs still
weighed 15+ pounds! The STbook had a wonderfull
battery life also thanks to there being no
backlight on it. Since the STbook didn't
have a floppy drive, Null modem transfer must be used
The STbook does come with a program to
transfer files.
