    That is truely great. I wish I still had the old Toshiba, or IBM, or even the Sewing Machine, to relive the past.

    I've often thought about digging up my old 486 and reliving the past, but any time I do, I'm reminded of why it's past in the first place :P
  • RNRN
    :( wish I still had all my stuff. I only have a 4 yr old hp dv2000 now.... at least I still have my hard drives haha....

    I have fond memories of the past and, in a way, wish I could relive it.

    To me the 486 past is:

    * When I could stay up all night running MEMMAKER installing and then uninstalling DriveSpace on 6.22, and then rerunning MEMMAKER.

    * Tweaking DOS 6.22 all the different ways to get any performance gain out of it.

    * Playing any random shareware game that I could fit on a floppy all night.

    Essentially it all comes back down to the memory I detailed previously that "we all had time then". That's why I remember it and want to go back.

    One thing I LOVED about my old 486...

    QBASIC 4.5

    I got rid of two of my three 486's because I got tired of useless crap taking up space. I kept the one 486 because it was my second computer. My first computer is long gone.

    As for old machines, besides the 486, I still have Flibble (the pentium 90 mhz that was an IRC server for DLDtk) and my old K6-2 300mhz.

    I had forgotten that! Line numbers, REM STATIC and REM DYNAMIC, all those things I could never wrap my head around then.

    Q -- I was digging through some old drives of mine to find the old WinWorld HTML, and I found a Fujitsu 1.2GB hard drive...

    Windows 3.1, what nostalgia.
  • Lupinthe3rdLupinthe3rd
    I still have a vast array of old machines as my latest vid of my Amstrad MegaPC proves on youtube.

    But I don't use them as much now, once I get a few things rigged up agian I'll be blasting away on my old games but thats all I have them for.
  • BlueSunBlueSun
    I still have tons of old DOS games that I used to play on my old machines. They're still lots of fun to play and most of them work alright on XP / 7.

    I still have your impossibly small Caviar, the Aptiva drive, a Conner 210, and those LOUD Quantums.

    I do remember the old Fujitsu. We used to love those things for their silence. I also remember our passing off a SCSI one on John Petersen.
