@hulkintosh This world have been the dream machine for the era.

I picked up this mint condition Quadra 800. Not only is it in excellent physical condition, the original 500MB hard drive still works and the battery didn’t leak. And it’s got 20MB of RAM. I’m going to back it up to a blueSCSI.

@geekenspiel I always wanted one of these back in the day.

This little guy (Via EPIA-M) will be at the heart of the mini Win98 build I’ll be giving away at this year’s VCFMW. 🎟️

@CryptoCloaks What's this relax thing?

Alright! Let's give a few grenades away while we're gone rebooting the system and preparing for what's coming the rest of the year. To enter: Tweet below your favorite pass time to relax and tag a friend you think that needs it more than anyone. Winners picked: May 6th

@work_louder The real question is why so sexy?

Tiktok comments: Why so expensive?!? Us: we haven’t said the price yet🤔

Yesterday, APD dispersed a protest on Copley Rd using pepper spray and tear gas. One video - twitter.com/gentleentry/st… - shows police using pepper spray, not in urgent self-defense, but in an almost casual way. This behavior is unacceptable.

@geekenspiel I'll take the Netscape disk.

Name your poison. ☠️

@geekenspiel Glad I just ordered one then!

The pink/green Sector 12 is going into “The Vault” and being replaced by the blue/purple… 👀

@deW5KHZ I was thinking about getting one for an old build out of nostalgia, but certainly not at $400 unless I become fabulously wealthy soon somehow.

@JaysonShenk Rare and valuable are different, some sellers (and buyers) do not grasp the difference.

I remember picking up a Matrox M3D from CompUSA so I could play Quake on my Pentium 133. Now they're going for $400? Wonder if I still have mine... ebay.com/itm/3254937409…

@CryptoCloaks I need to get some of that orange filament. Looks so good.

300% SS Satoshi complete. Settings need tuning and need to get better cooling but happy with the progress. Building a profile from the ground up ain't easy 😂 Toot Toot! We're losing our #Bitcoin!

@firstenergycorp Hey I've lost power at zip code 44412 and your reporting line is just playing music on a loop.

@anne_engineer OK. I've got a 5150 that was given to me 20 years ago during a campus upgrade and I was thinking about firing it up again recently and adding one of those.

@JaysonShenk Just the interface and form factor leave me cold on using it for IBM PCs and PS/2

I am not a Gotek floppy emulator fan. If you could design the perfect floppy drive emulator, what features would it have?

@InfiniDream1 Why must you attack us like this?

How many unfinished projects do have? Be honest.

Pepsi by Jerome Gould, 1969. Still strong. Would work.

@lazygamereviews 12 5.52 SCSI Floppy drives?

TWELVE 5.25" drive bays?? Getting video ideas

@OldTechAdverts It's real and when it happens it can't recover. A guy I went to art school with lost his senior thesis because of one in 2002. School paid for professional data recovery too. That said I used them for during that era with no issues.

Personally, I have not used a Zipdrive before and some folks said in the comments that the click of death is overblown. Is the click of death a real thing? How is it recovered?

@anne_engineer Also when I was a kid through college I couldn't afford any of the cool upgrades, which are out of production now.

@JaysonShenk Yes, it can make the difference

While polls still work for me: How do you like your retrocomputers?

Here's some nostalgia. In 2002 I bought a machine just like this, but all black. 3.06 Pentium 4. This was my workhorse graphics workstation until the Core 2 Duo era. REALLY wish I'd kept the case.
