-	The '''Lappy 486''' (often referred to as '''Lappy''') was [[Strong Bad]]'s third computer. The Lappy was the replacement for the [[Compy 386]], which [[Bubs]] destroyed with a shotgun after it [[The Virus\|contracted over 400,000 viruses]]. Like its ~~predecesor~~, as well as each of its permanent successors, the Lappy 486 is a product of [[Compy, Inc]]. It utilized a more modern [[Strong Bad Email\|email]] client that included a subject line, a reply panel, and the following easy-access buttons: Reply, Forward, Delete, Save, Computer, and Image. (Delete, Save, Computer, and Image are usually hidden behind Strong Bad's head.) However, all of it would disappear after Strong Bad would clear the screen to continue typing.	+	The '''Lappy 486''' (often referred to as '''Lappy''') was [[Strong Bad]]'s third computer.
