It's a Toshiba Satellite T1910CS. 33mhz i486SX and 4mb RAM. Any suggestions on what I should do with it?

Put it on top of a laptop cooler? 😈

Install DOS+Win3.11 and play games from the early 486 era on the go? Unlike 386SX, the 486SX is pretty decent, as the FPU isn't important for almost everything that would run well on a 486DX/SX-33, which makes them pretty much equal for gaming.

I was thinking something like that. If I really want to make it on the go, I'm gonna have to find a new battery pack...
If it has passiv LCD then gaming would be a problem (slow LCD response and bad ghosting). Unless using external display.

Yeah I tried playing some Duke Nukem II on it and it was horrendous... Not only the screen was ghosting terribly, no sound because it doesn't have any way of connecting to speakers. I'll probably just keep it as a Windows 3.11 laptop for old school-ness.
You could play less intensive stuff in case you enjoy it. Heroes II, Master of Orion, then great stuff like Monkey Island, Agenda, etc.
