WinBook is an in-house brand of MEI/Micro Center. They're best known for their laptops, continuously released from 1993 through 2008. Since 2008, the WinBook brand has been put on various Windows 8 tablets, a laptop or two, and some other stuff, but they don't exist like they did back in their active days.

This section on MacDat is an attempt at preserving all available information on their laptops. Below you will find links to pages on each WinBook model, which will include device specifications, links to drivers, other resources, and anything else I could find on them.
