Toshiba Satellite A series laptop w/2GB ram and 80GB hdd. Has 56K modem, Nic, plus Wi-Fi adapter built in. Windows 7 pro runs pretty smooth on it. Just for basic office shit and internet/e-mail usage though

Had one of these years ago. Did it originally come with Win 98?

It runs a Windows 98SE and Win2k SP4 dual boot setup. If booting into 98SE I also have a custom boot menu to boot directly into DOS with several options, such as Mouse or CD driver enabled/disabled or variation of expanded memory.
I love that machine but fuck, it took me weeks to get everything set up correctly without compatibility issues and blue screens. Windows 9x is madness. By now I know the CD key by heart.
my main PC FX8350 R9 270X everything else was bought in the last 5 years except my 1080p Samsung LED TV, regular use for me is at least once a week so old PCs and consoles don't couint
I miss using a CRT. It's a shame the couple of manufacturers that still produce them are in India (and only produce TVs).

Hunter Turner
No, came with Vista basic. Thankfully I found XP drivers for it so was able to run XP till 7 came out.

Still runs great. DVD drive died years ago but who uses those things anymore?

That's a big screen, I bet it weighed a ton

I would still use my old netbook but the wifi chip uses Broadcom drivers that are nearly impossible to get working on Linux these days.

I had to use my floppy drive yesterday to flash firmware on one of my ATI cards.

I use my C3000 pretty much every day, lots of remote work on newer systems but also plenty of local stuff; plebeian development, doing stupid shit with Mathematica, checking email and shitposting on Sup Forums. Also runs a few databases and hosts web pages and files for internal shit, and also functions as a telnet->SSH gateway for systems that have no SSHv2 clients.
Also run a Cobalt Qube with NetBSD for some things, both systems are from mid-late 1999. I usually have something older on rotation for a project but these ones are the ones that stick around permanently.
