Toshiba quietly divests itself of its laptop business, selling its remaining 19.9% percent stake in its Dynabook laptop brand to Sharp. Back in 2018, the company sold 80.1% of its stake in the brand to Sharp. The move isn't surprising given how Toshiba hasn't been active in the industry in a while. It's still noteworthy, though, as it closes a 35-year chapter in Toshiba's history.
The company was considered a pioneer in the portable computer space. The 1985 T1100 model was regarded as the first mainstream laptop computer. It set a design template for laptops that remained unchanged until Apple PowerBook laptops were introduced in 1991. that didn't change much until Apple's PowerBook line arrived in 1991. The company thrived in the 1990s and 2000s with its Satellite, Portégé, and Qosmio lines. The company isn't entirely out of the computing space, though, as it is still active in the printing and storage markets and the energy and retail segments.
