Vintage Hewlett-Packard HP OmniBook 800CT Pentium Notebook PC in exceptional open-box / new old stock condition with original retail box, internal packaging, documentation, software, and accessories.
This OmniBook appears to have remained unused and stored in its original packaging for approximately 30 years. The computer itself is exceptionally clean and shows little to no evidence of normal use.
Important packaging details: There are two accessory boxes included. One accessory box was still secured with its original HP factory seal when I acquired it. I personally broke this seal solely to inspect and verify the contents. I have photographs showing this accessory box before and after the seal was broken for documentation. The contents inside, including the original battery, appear unused.
The second accessory box remains sealed and has NOT been opened. I have intentionally left this box sealed to preserve its original condition.
Included:
- HP OmniBook 800CT notebook computer
- Original HP OmniBook 800 Series retail box
- Original internal cardboard packaging and foam
- Original accessories and accessory boxes
- Original battery found inside the accessory box opened for inspection
- Second accessory box still factory sealed
- HP OmniBook Installation and Setup Guide
- HP OmniBook Accessories booklet
- Microsoft Windows documentation
- Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity
- Additional original paperwork and materials shown in the photographs
Testing/condition: Due to the age and unusually well-preserved collectible condition of this computer, I have not powered it on or attempted to charge the original battery. The computer and battery are therefore being sold as untested. No guarantee is made regarding the functionality or capacity of the approximately 30-year-old battery.
For complete transparency, this listing is not claiming that the entire computer package is factory sealed. The main packaging has been opened for inspection and photography, and, as described above, I personally opened the seal on one accessory box solely to verify its contents. The other accessory box remains sealed.
The OmniBook, packaging, paperwork, and accessories have been preserved in remarkable condition for their age, making this an unusually complete example of HP's distinctive Pentium-era OmniBook 800CT.
An excellent piece for a serious vintage computer, Hewlett-Packard, Windows 95, or 1990s technology collection.
Please examine all photographs carefully, including the before-and-after photographs of the accessory-box seal. Photographs are part of the description, and everything included with the sale is pictured.
