While Dell laptop history begins in 1989 it's worth mentioning that Michael Dell, the founder of Dell, started the company back in 1984 and became the first businessperson to successfully sell customized computers directly to his customers. As mentioned Dell laptop computer history began in 1989 with the 316LT being Dell's first entry into the laptop market. Dell history with respect to laptops continued in 1991 with the release of the first Dell laptop computer with color display. The 325NC featured a maximum processing speed of 25 MHz, a 16 color display, a screen resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, and a $4500 price tag.
Dell laptop history took a turn for the best in 1994 when the company released the first laptop(Latitude XP) to run on Lithium-Ion batteries which was a breakthough in terms of battery life. Until that time the maximum battery life expectancy was around 3 hours. Built-in wireless cards became available on Dell laptops beginning in the year 2000.
