In a video shared on X, the young man showed the laptop his father bought him and started laughing.

“My father gave me a laptop when he returned from abroad. This is the laptop.”

The grey laptop looked like an ancient module. It also looked bulky and heavy, even though it was on a table when he showed it. There was a beeping sound, likely coming from the laptop.
