Car owners who park on the street or in communal parking spaces are all too familiar with this scenario. The normal ritual of dragging a hose across the pavement, looking high and low for a drain that won’t flood a neighbor’s place, or lugging out various buckets and tools from the trunk, all converts what should be a fast maintenance activity into a tedious weekend project.

Bit Corporation released the Bit79 in 1989 as a machine that looked ready for serious work.

A person could sit down, flip the power on, and face a choice between typing programs or playing games.
Jake Laser grew up watching his father face constant barriers from a wheelchair. Multiple sclerosis had attacked nerve signals to his legs decades earlier, ending a life that once included marathon running and hiking as a chemical engineering professor.

That quick recognition sets the tone for what Anker built here.
