The story

RoverComputers dates back to the early 1990s. In 1991, RoverComputers was established as a PC service and repair facility. By 1995, RoverComputers had released its first laptop computer based on the Intel 486 CPU, establishing the RoverBook brand and producing Russia's first ever Russian-made line of notebooks. During this process RoverComputers became OEM partner of the Intel Corporation in Russia. Today, it remains the only laptop manufactured in Russia available on the Russian market.

According to Kayrat Zharaspayev, the former vice president of finance at the company, RoverComputers did not survive the pressure of the 2008 financial crisis due to cash flow issues. In 2015, all trademarks were sold to former employees. By 2016, the company ceased to exist.
