Chicony MP975
The Chicony MP975 is a Pentium-based laptop released in 1997. It was based on the design of the older Chicony NB7, which was a 486 laptop. I have far more information on this laptop than what is currently on this page thanks to orphanlaptops, and I'll be adding more soon. For now, I'll just say that these laptops had many revisions with various minor differences. Much of this will be documented soon.
