Had an idea. Why not have a thread full of OLD STUFF we own!! :D

Like old phones, computers, monitors, consoles, hardware, tvs, general old computer stuff.

Also include old/classic cars.

Watches/clocks/paintings/collections.

out of date stuff ie newer versions etc. :)

Just anything OLD. I originally wanted to start this just for gadgets and computer related stuff but may as well have all old stuff.

I saw a picture of a phone on theverge that kicked off nostalgia and wanting to dig deep to find more old stuff.

So for now, I have a Nokia 7600 i think it is called, will look later for it and take a picture but this bad boy. Also have a SNES, 2 commodore 64 and god knows what else at my parents, but let the old stuff posting commence :)

EDIT: Lets change it to old stuff we dont want to get rid of :D

I still have my ColecoVision, my first console. It's broken but I can't bring myself to get rid of it so it sits boxed up in storage. My NES, SNES, N64 and Dreamcast (my last console). The 8-track stereo system my dad bought a year after I was born now has a place of pride in my bedroom. I still remember listening to tapes on it when I was barely old enough to work the controls. I had a Master Merlin game as a kid and it vanished long ago, but I bought a replacement on eBay a while back. As you can probably tell by now I'm kind of sentimental.

I've got a Panasonic video cartridge player, an early type of VCR that used EIAJ-2 cartridges. A Commodore 64, TI-99/4A, an IBM PC/XT and my trusty Powerbook 1400c laptop. The keyboard that I'm typing on right now was made in 1987 so I guess that counts too. There's a Philco tube radio on my bookshelf made in the 1930s that still works great. Lots of old records including 78s and two stacks of 45s, old tapes, etc. My Sony walkman (cassette).

YES!! :D

I think this thread would be a lot better if people posted photos of the items they are saying they have. I mean, I could come on here and spout off about how I have got this and that old products when in reality I have none of it.

I had nothing else to do so I took a few photos of what I had within reach. To keep in the spirit of things I used my crappy 12 year old digital camera. :laugh:

Outdated Processors

Misc Computer Stuff

TI-99/4A Computer

IBM PC Keyboard

Some old Games

Powerbook 1400

8-Track Stereo

Philco Radio

Master Merlin

A couple pictures of some of my ISA and PCI cards I took a few years ago.

Panasonic Video Cartridge Player, this one isn't mine but it's the model I have.

I forgot I also have a Member's Only jacket in my closet. It wasn't mine, honest!

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
