I bought my first computer in 1989. It was a Dell 80286 12 MHz with 512 KB of RAM and a 20 MB hard disc drive. I paired that powerhouse with a 14″ color CRT monitor that weighed about 45 pounds, and my life was changed forever.
In the evenings after work I became a stealth fighter pilot. I mastered the intricacies of nuclear submarine combat. I bombed Saddam Hussein’s palace in my F-15 Strike Eagle hundreds of times. I led great civilizations through wartime and prosperity, and then on to world domination. At work I was an apprentice electrician–at home with my computer I ruled the galaxy.
I have assembled these computers with care-each one became my favorite as I was putting it together. They work like new–turn them on and all software and drivers work perfectly with the hardware. Each has a pristine operating system installed (generally DOS and Windows 98; the real old-timers boot up Windows 3.11). When you hear the clicking and whirring of the internals you are transported back thirty years. Those sounds are part of the soundtrack of the 1990s, along with Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Nine Inch Nails.
I have lots of vintage/retro computer parts too. Memory, CPUs, Floppy drives, hard disc drives, graphics cards, sound cards, joysticks and more. I have every kind of cable you can imagine. If you need something inquire. I probably have it.
I am always ready to negotiate. Now check out my computers. Each is unique and special.
