Retro computing products are something plenty of tech enthusiasts love. Pocket has just expanded the list of currently available retro products by releasing the Pocket386, an i386-compatible Windows 95 mini-laptop that is said to be compact enough to fit in a pocket. That being said, the product's dimensions (8.3″ x 4.7″ x 1.2″) imply said pocket should be pretty large in order to accomodate the "mini" laptop.

Joyor S5 E-Scooter review - With style and high riding comfort

Full suspension. The Joyor S5 stands out. The pushed-out swingarm looks unusual and creates a special riding experience. A rough profile provides an off-road look, a long wheelbase makes room for the feet and a large battery should make long rides possible. We took the Joyor S5 for a spin.
