Post your Vintage Tech!


Recommended Posts

Look closely... it's Powerpoint for Windows.

Pity that I got rid of the old 5 1/4" floppy disks a long time ago. MS-DOS 3.3 or Windows 1.03 would really be vintage tech.

LOL, I'm so blind

I'm sure we all got one of these in the closet.

(sorry for the image quality, it's just so much easier to take pics with my phone. :p )

Yes, that is Starfox 64 (best game ever!)

-16bit ISA video card with VGA and CGA ports

-Some sort of memory upgrade card for 30 pin SIMMs

-ST-506 and floppy drive controller from 1988.

Edit: A 5 1/4" floppy disk and an original IBM Fortran punchcard, unused.

Wow, I really feel old when I look at some of the other vintage tech on here. :pinch:

Ah, my beloved TI 99/4a, all the styling of a modern iMac with all the memory of a modern digital watch :-) This thing actually had dedicated video memory. On boot up you can either load a cartridge or open a TI Basic prompt. I also have the solid state memory module (basically RAM + a battery), as well as the Speech Synthesizer module, which basically does nothing :p

Here's a picture of one hooked up with all of the optional peripherals:

TI Basic and Buck Rodgers FTW!

One of my most prized possessions, my Amiga 600. Sold my A500 around '95, but missed it so much that I had to get something to replace it.

My very first computer, the Sinclair Spectrum 48K.

The only games I still have for it, in one damn fine box.

This isn't mine but one like it, Amiga A500, second floppy drive, 1084S monitor and the hard drive add-on (with a Samsung 250MB HDD).

I finally packed it up and put it away, but it still works fine.

I just threw a Game Boy which I found in the back of a cupboard in the bin last week cause it didn't work.

Mine still works great. I even heard that a GameBoy which survived a bomb in the Gulf War is exhibited in a Nintendo Center somewhere...

cant post pictures because all this stuff is safely stored but I have:

- commodore 64 + tape drive + floppy drive 5.25 + printer (all is working and in perfect conditions)

- Vespa 150 (all parts original of 1964, including the plates and documents)

- B/W Brionvega ALGOL 11'' TV (from 1968 more or less) in perfect working order (exposed at the Metropolitan museum)

- MS windows 3.0 (floppy disk 5.25) original with manuals and box

Going to keep the stuff as long as I can, though someone offered 7000euro for the Vespa (not gonna sell it, my dad uses it to go shopping)

I have lots of old stuff sitting around, but most of it is at home. Here at school, I'm using this old 13" RCA TV from circa 1988, making it a year older than me. I'll post pictures later.

I've got a mac plus and a few old Commodore 64's

And one of these.

There's also a Tandy TRS-80 sitting around somewhere, but that doesn't count (not mine, and it's rusted out inside)
