Toshiba Libretto 50CT
The Libretto 50CT was perhaps one of the first laptops I coveted—a wonderfully tiny Windows 95 laptop that seemed like the perfect device for bringing the world of Myst along with you on your travels.
Power
Fortunately, with USB-C Power Delivery, it’s incredibly easy to find modern lightweight charging solutions for the 50CT. I use a cheap 15V USB-C cable from Amazon with an adapter to convert it to the slightly less common 6.3 x 3.0mm center-positive barrel connector used by the Libretto:
- DSD TECH MagicConn SH-CP15A USB Type C PD to DC Power Cable-15V
- RUITEXUN DC 6.3mm Connector, 90 Degree Angle DC 6.3 x 3.0mm Male to DC 5.5 x 2.1mm Female Adapter Barrel Power Jack Charging Cable Connector
Transferring Files
One of the easiest ways of getting data onto the Libretto 50CT is using the PCMCIA adapter and a CF card.
Software
- Metapad (Version 3.5.1 works on Windows 95)
