When Jabil was about to start building, Epson decided to stop using Intel processors, delaying the launch. The hinges Jabil bought contained a lubricant that cracked the plastic" (Roth 1998).

Fantastic article. Long enough, new enough, DY check all green. Some overcitation for my tastes, but not an issue for DYK. Maury Markowitz (talk) 01:57, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Operating System

Presumably it shipped with Windows 3.1? If so, can this be added to the article? Greenshed (talk) 21:37, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, they all came preinstalled with Windows. Now added to the article, thanks for the tip. DigitalIceAge (talk) 21:56, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
