@NanosaurFan1999 This is Target Display Mode, but I'm not running macOS underneath! github.com/DistroHopper39…

Okay putting win98se on 128gb sdxc card on #thinkpad x201T Gonna move x220 to win2k & x230 to winXP Boom 💥

Well, there goes that idea 😅

I want every app to have a UI like Managing Your Money 2 (1996)

200 years ago, in 1826, Nicephore Niépce took the oldest surviving photograph in the world.

@Rockminet @oldtoons_ Possibly CCO?

@MattBytesRetro @oldtoons_ Walt had to have some title or position in order to get paid though, right?

Josh D'Amaro has officially assumed the role of The Walt Disney Company's ninth CEO.

@uncledoomer Our 2360dw is almost ten years old. Still prints like new..

there really is a "fix everything right now" button for buying a printer and its been the same for 20 years

I’m 100 percent convinced the Art Deco design of Hoover Dam is America’s greatest ever public project and we’ll probably never come close again

Before modern LCD & LED screens, this was cutting edge technology!

@RetroTechChris I run this custom build on a Pentium 3. crustywindo.ws/Windows_2000_P…

@RetroTechChris Love me some Windows 2000. I skipped most of 98SE's life and all of WinME, jumping to 2000 instead. I used it much longer in HS as they ran it instead of XP.

I thought I'd see if I could repair the Windows 2000 install on the dual Pentium Pro tonight. Ended up going quite well, though this computer does have some unique hardware in it, which does add an extra step or two. Let's talk about it, you guessed it, a 🧵 here

@Rockminet @oldtoons_ Which was Roy during Walt's lifetime.

@Rockminet @oldtoons_ Walt founded Disney but never was, and never wanted to be CEO. He was president and chairmen at different times, but really preferred to just be a creative guy and let others handle the business side of things.

Definitely a must-have for any '90s PC gamer. Man, the things we had to fiddle and tinker with, painfully tweaking to perfection just to squeeze out those elusive last couple of kilobytes. But once you got it, oh the glory!

@MilenialFulcrum @RetroTechChris

@RetroTechChris Winamp 🥹

Thought I would stress test these new Pentium Pro CPUs during the day, so I am streaming music. Hopefully the power supply holds out this time 😂

@piodoesdonuts @FellaJohnLittle @RetroTechChris This. Modern PSUs don't have the same voltage splits as older ones and I think -5v is missing entirely.

@FellaJohnLittle @RetroTechChris Those older systems usually rely heavily on the +5v rail. I'd recommend finding some good old PSU's that are of that appropriate era (any you might have on hand?), and recap them properly with good new caps. There might be "new" options these days, but that's what I'd do.

Two indie devs made a game where you run your own video store in the early 90s. It’s currently the #5 top-selling game on Steam. - Rent out VHS tapes & manage customers - Charge Late & Broken Fees - Upgrade & customise your store It’s called Retro Rewind - Video Store Simulator
