A lot of attention and controversy came from provocative advertising featuring Helen Wellton posing scantily clad to sell their computers.
The ads were reported twice by the Ombudsman to the Industry and Commerce Ethics against sexist advertising (ERK).
The second time, she was convicted of her smile, which ERK considered "signaling sexual overtures".
The corner stones for Lap Power were done in mid-1990s but it wasn't until 1991 that it started for real.
These clumsy models became little of a specialty for the company in the beginning and the possibilities were soon realised.
