My friend gave me this Toshiba T6600c laptop (1993) a few years ago. I finally removed the back panel to check it out! I had to buy a new screw driver kit because the screw holes were really deep. This will make an awesome DOS PC once I make some upgrades. Specs: i486DX2 66mhz, 8 mb ram (integrated) 1 mb video, 510 mb hard drive, Windows 3.11 for Workgroups. My friend gave me this in 2008, and unfortunately since then the display stopped working. It will still work if I plug it into an external monitor with VGA. (I was looking at a diagram of how the display is connected and hopefully it was just unplugged but maybe it broke I dunno.) The manual says the ram is expandable to 80 Mb (if I add 72mb) That would be good for FMV games, but for most games this would be enough. Also it didn't come with a CD-Rom drive (but it had the option for that), I'd like to add an external ISA Plextor CD-Rom drive. I'm going to make another video once I make those upgrades.

Here's a link the manual if you're interested:
