There is no definite answer as to when or where the first laptop was developed. However, there is strong evidence to suggest that the first computer that was a model for the laptop was the Grid Compass, developed in 1979 in the UK by William Moggridge for Grid Systems Corporation. This computer had a folding electroluminescent graphics display screen. It was first used by NASA in the space shuttle progra.
Other computer historians are of the opinion that the first true laptop was the Gavilon, developed by Manuel (Manny) Fernandez in 1983, in the United States. This laptop used the "clamshell" design for the screen.
