For my Apple collection, I’ve finally assembled a set of those examples of ultra-thin laptops that Apple has released throughout its history. Apple has long been a trendsetter in the tech world, and its drive to create thinner and more elegant laptops has transformed the entire industry.
Of course, there were some missteps along the way: in its desire to create an ultra-thin laptop, Apple invented a new type of keyboard — the “butterfly” — which turned out to be a big problem for the company. The keys on these keyboards would stop working if you looked at them the wrong way, and Apple eventually had to abandon this innovation.
In my opinion, the era of ultra-thin and lightweight Apple laptops begins with the Apple PowerBook Duo. This was a series of ultraportable laptops produced from 1992 to 1997.
