"I've come a long, long way," she said, "and I will go as far,
With the man who takes me from my horse, and leads me to a bar."
The man who took her off her steed, and stood her to a beer,
Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a DRUNKEN ENGINEER.

I remember that one, although I never had one myself. My first laptop came in 1986 (years prior to the ThinkPad), and although I was an IBM PC fan from before 1986 until even now, I had to get a Toshiba laptop because that was all there was at the time (IIRC).

I think I got my Zenith Z-193 (with a 10 MB hard disk!) in 1987 ...
