Found this random picture online when searching for a review of a monitor
Aaron Lopez
info on this thing?
Hunter Bennett
W00t.
And here I am currently unloading my Model M / Model F collection from my car (moving)...
Anthony Cox
Still reposting my //e dumb terminal, because I'm currently out of town.
When I get back, I'll make a post showing off the Contiki Web browser.

current project: put a soundblaster awe64 in my unisys cwd and replaced cpu with a trinityworks powerstacker (amd am5x86) kit, oveclocked to 160mhz. the powerstacker is a bit taller, so I cut a hole in the hard drive mounting bracket with tin snips (will clean it up with a dremel later). the old hd won't fit in the case now, so I intend to replace it with a cf card adapter. that, some more ram, and i'll have a pretty nice dos mini system

Damn, I had that same setup with the printer and everything. It was weird how the PSU was built into the monitor.

Im gonna do this one day on a mech keyboard. Just wait, ill post screencaps.
Christian Young
What's the actual reason for the arrow keys being like that? Have the keys in your pic been replaced or something?
Brody Cruz
OH LAWD What keyboard is that I need it
Jacob Hall
Bumping for sauce
Luke Walker
Where is that user with the SUN? Found the abandoned one at work. It's a maxed out Ultra 40.
Jacob Sanchez
Wasn't that pretty common back in the day?
Jackson Martin
Yup, it was my first PC as well.
I didn't buy the printer, though.
Also, it taught me what a ROM drive was. Motherfucker.
Charles Cox
A SUN without SPARC is like a Mac without PPC or SGI without MIPS.
Aiden Edwards
Yeah. But for free it's ok.
Asher Ward
True. I would sell it on ebay.
Elijah Adams
I think I will keep it as a nicely built linux workstation. But I already have a proper Celsius, so I don't know what i will use it for...
Jacob Gray
Bumping.

I'd also like to know keyboard type
Grayson Brooks
Are there good Sun-like cases nowadays?
Sebastian White
Nah, Sun and x86 have a long history, and they still run Solaris 10 just fine. Would make a great development box.
Hunter Gonzalez
standard issue on HP Vectras/terminals/everything else they shipped in the late '80s and early '90s
probably HP-HIL but maybe they shipped PS/2 ones later down the road when they stopped using HIL in their PCs
Parker Thompson
There are no good cases nowadays.
Joseph Thompson
looks more futuristic than the edgy tryhard cases of today
Nathan Foster

Super serial card or ethernet?
Justin Martinez
Super serial card. I use the Uthernet II card for Ethernet.
Robert Reyes
what's that? opengl test video?

well I need another desk and better lightning and a camera
still better then most of them here
Luke Price
>this thread is a competition to show off my garbage
>must show off my hobby that's laughable to most people
Even so, it's still mediocer. Just x86 boxes and only first two are actually anything to talk about.
Ayden Baker
this is the last one in the row, a superior 386 with a "blow out" case
Christopher James
This is my //e using Contiki. I'm using my Raspberry Pi as a WiFi bridge.
Can post more details if anybody is interested.
Sebastian Roberts
calm down fampire it's just a ruse
His commie 286 is breddy good anyway
Easton Adams
Been considering picking up one of the pre-MDD Powermac G4s since they can be had for cheap
PC100/133 memory makes me wary though, it'd be nice to be able to run OS X 10.4 or 10.5 without being sluggish
Liam Jackson
Is a G4 mac worth it for €15? Will any old monitor work with it?
Nathan Price
10.4 itself is okay on an SDRAM system but surfing the web with JS on requires patience
pretty much pocket change, go for it
they'll take any shit peripherals you can throw at them
Jaxon Ward
Are we talking about the look or the functions?
Jaxon Long
I wouldn't even put 10.5 on a G4 unless you had more than 1GB of RAM 1GHz+ CPU. I don't think the G4's have SATA either, although I could be wrong. You can buy a SATA controller, but you would have to make sure it's supported.
Ryan Bailey
even then 10.5 is kind of useless on PPC unless you're really in to the UI enhancements, you lose classic compatibility, performance potential even on newer systems, and don't really gain much in support or anything else since most stuff that supports PPC at all supports 10.4 anyway
Angel Morgan
Any good retrocomputing IRCs?
Jordan Garcia
My attraction to 10.5 is that it's the oldest reasonably supportable OS X version for app development. There's a number of APIs and quality of life improvements in 10.5 that are hard to give up. I guess I could go back a version further but that makes it harder to make sure everything looks and acts right all the way from the minimum supported version of OS X up to 10.12, whereas if you're targeting 10.5 it's somewhat easier.
Adam Martin
I've been considering getting one of these 8-bit kit computers but I am not confident in my soldering ability. Never soldered anything with ICs before.
Eli Jones
You can get a C2D iMac that supports the latest version of OS X for less $250-$4050 and you can upgrade the RAM and HDD. It also will have a very nice IPS screen.
Probably the cheapest way to do iOS/OS X development.
Grayson Butler
oops that should say "$250-450"
Ryan Bailey
I have a 2015 15" rMBP w/dedicated graphics. Access to a Mac isn't the issue; I have an old (12+ years) project that I'm modernizing and I'm trying to gracefully drop support for older versions (and PPC) not dropping any version unless I really have to. It's a simple program and there's no reason for it to require anything near the latest OS.
The tower would be used for testing and development on 10.4/10.5 and PPC. For old versions of x86 OS X I can just spin up a VM (doing this with 10.5 x86 right now).

Do these have a benefit or they just for fun?
William James
Fun and historical preservation. People keep impractical and inefficient cars running for the same reasons
Daniel Cox
Trying to get texttop working on my //e at the moment. Keep getting "Cannot connect to the Docker daemon. Is the docker daemon running on this host?"
Kayden Bennett
Here's a video about that kit
Zachary Hall
My bad, this is the video I meant to post.
Hunter Powell
Fuck, this looks fun and informative. Don't know if I would blow money on it, but that's inspiring.

Who /retrogaming/ here? I'm getting a SNES next week and I'm pretty excited about it. It'll be connected via scart to my wega crt.

Being a weeb back in the day must have been really isolating before the rise of imageboards.
Were there old weeb forums and IRC chats for the oldschool weebs of yore?

Justin Jones
>most millenias are probably older then PATA
No, just kids nowadays who don't know shit.
Nathaniel Mitchell
back in my days, we called it ATA and not PATA
Ryan Turner
But after SATA came outs it's retroactively called PATA to avoid confusion.
