The Nan Tan 8500 (also known as the FMA8500) is a 486-based laptop that was released in March 1995. The only information I have on this laptop comes from a print ad from FOSA, who sold a laptop called the "AP 8500" right alongside the "AP 7600", which is a Nan Tan 7600. I think it's safe to say then that the AP 8500, which looks like a Nan Tan machine, is the Nan Tan 8500 that was known to exist but only confirmed via FCC ID with no photos or other information.
