@foone hey I know this is kind of nondescript but Nyx is building the lego stem set on stream and we're trying to figure out if the computer in it is based on something real or just generic computer.

My best guess is an apple macintosh 128k.

Visualize

My phone isn't syncing with my work computer, so I can't get to the images for the next few days. This was my second choice for yesterday. I was always mesmerized watching the visualizer on winamp.

i’ve fallen down a hole of looking at commodore 64 accessories and im not going to be satisfied until i get something, price be heavily considered.

im thinking either sd2iec or the final cartridge 3+. maybe jiffydos, i need to open mine up and see if the kernal rom is socketed or soldered.

or maybe i’ll just blow my wad of cash that i dont have on a commodore 128

or a new power supply, the one i have works fine but every time i turn it on im terrified its going to go bad and fry my computer.

this dvd of harry potter and the sorcerer's stone has never even been opened in all of it's 2001 glory. i wonder if i should even open it it might be worth a million dollars or something.

this thing has "enhanced PC Features" but it predates windows xp.

requires PC with DVD-rom drive and Microsoft Windows 95 or higher

OH SHIT

Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher (included on disk)

SUCH OBSOLESCENCE
