The Lappy 486 is Strong Bad's third and current computer, and is manufactured by Compy, Inc. It replaced the Compy 386 after it was infected with 423,827 viruses and shotgunned by Bubs.
The Lappy 486 has a more modern email program with a subject line, a reply pane, and easy-access buttons: Reply, Forward, Delete, Save, Computer, and Image. However, when Strong Bad clears the screen, all of it disappears and he continues typing.
Strong Bad describes its startup noise as "classy." His attempt to repeat it is quite out of tune.
Quick Facts
Debut: First seen in Strong Bad Email 119, "animal." First mentioned by The Brothers Chaps in the "invisibility" DVD commentary.
Features:
- 42 pounds!!
- 2MB Hard Drive!
- "Several" Color Monitor
- Warning: Five Minute Battery Life (Strong Bad said it is "One half of ten minutes")
- 512 K RAM
- "Finally, a computer for your lap!"—Compy
Screen Ratio: (aspect ratio) is 1.67 (width): 1 (height), as opposed to a normal screen of 1.3:1 and a widescreen of 1.85:1.
Interactive Feature: Clicking on the Lappy's screen simulates the effect seen on laptop LCDs: applied force moves the liquid inside (a Liquid Crystal Display), causing a "wave" of distorted colors. Unlike the Compy 386, the Lappy features no "back" button. This is also Strong Bad's first computer without contrast buttons.
