By using the Dillo web browser, it is possible to view web pages on a Gateway Handbook 486. It is also possible to run Mozilla Firefox on the Handbook's screen, albeit slowly, by running the browser on another computer, and using the X Window System's ability to run an application over the network.

A 12 ounce soft drink aluminium beverage can is included in the picture to give the viewer a sense of this computer's small size.

User:Samboy took this picture in the early morning of April 20, 2005, and dual-licenses the picture under both the GFDL and the Creative Commons share-alike licenses; anyone who wishes to reuse this picture may use either (or both) of these licenses.

Camera data

  • Camera Kodak CX6230 (automatic consumer-oriented 2 megapixel digital camera)

Notes on taking of photo

  • This picture is isn't a mock-up; the computer was really connected to the internet and viewing the Wikipedia web page with Dillo when this picture was taken.
  • This photo was taken with a 35mm-equivalent focal length of roughly 36mm (somewhat wide angle). The night shot mode was enabled, and the built-in flash was disabled. In order to make the contents of the screen more visible, and to minimize camera shake (no tripod was used), the exposure was made one stop darker.
  • The image was color-corrected in the GIMP to compensate for the lighting, which had a distinct warm tint to it. In more detail, the blues were made brighter. Additionally, the screen of the laptop was made darker since the image on the screen was a lot brighter than the rest of the picture. The entire picture was then made brighter. Finally, a noise reduction filter was applied to just the blue tones.
