Say a little prayer for my arms and my back!

One can dream! 😍

Let's go back in time, 25 years ago to 1999; what was your daily driver Operating System?

Another birthday surprise! 😊😊😊🥳🎉
It weighs 50.8 lb!!!

New Refurb Project:
Sun SPARCstation LX [1992]
The tape drive on top is in bad condition, but everything else SCSI is not too bad.
That caddie based CD-ROM is hot AF 🔥

The seller packed this really well, the plastic is the crumbly type and it's 32 years old. Peeling back the layers.......

The Keyboard is in really bad condition, but yeah, not too worried!

☀️

I had to pop this SPARCstation LX open and take a peek, I was not disappointed!

Think I'm going to need some SCSI cables, power cables, 13W3 to VGA adapter, also some other bits. But I love these projects, super excited! 👍👍👍😊

Well it seems to have survived, I'm ready for that commute!

Parcel 2 unboxing:
***no bubble wrap on the bottom, FFS!**

Double Floppy Drive Action!

I have this awesome Funicular railway in a village near where I live, it's reopening soon. Looking forward to going on it, like when I was a kid! 🚂🏔️

Windows 95 Plus! Theme - Space

OpenGL Quake II running on Windows 98SE at 1400x1050 >54FPS, music is perfect and everything is flawless.
I'm going to do a driver pack and share it with anyone interested in playing.

Six MS-DOS (and Win9x) era laptops all up and going, really fun to have these setup and playing the same game.
286 Compaq from 1988
386 Acer from 1990
486 Toshiba from 1993
Pentium Toshiba from 1995
Pentium II Gateway from 1998
Pentium III IBM from 2000

I grew up on these streets

I'm going to try to install Windows 98SE on this Dell Latitude D610 from 2005. Probably the newest series Dell you're going to be able to run Win9x natively. Wish me luck folks, I know it's going to be a mission.
