I wish I had had this 5 years ago. The early laptops are worth scrolling down for. Really amazing resource.

Anybody aware of similar resources for other early computer patents for Apple, Commodore, Tandy etc? Or another IBM resource specifically covering more than just keyboards ie the 5150, PC Jr etc?
