Finally got one of these again. I had a 100LX like 20 years ago and sold it on eBay. I stumbled across this near mint 200LX and just had to splurge again. An actual MSDOS pocket PC. I have so much cool stuff to load on here.
Absolutely ZERO enshittification here.
Look, I made another loop for #loops! #powermac #powermacg4 #powerpc #vintagemac #retromac #retrocomputer #retrocomputing #retropc #vintageapple #retroapple #oldcomputer #oldmac #mac #apple #tiktok
And in the second mystery AT box I find this!
Interesting. Very happy that is an NiMH and not the other explodey type.
If you're on Linux and want a really cool way to resemble CLIs on older machines, this little program lets you do just that.
It's a separate terminal emulator launched via your existing terminal emulator and lets you change color schemes to mimic retro computers (C64, PET, IBM PCs, Apple ][, etc).
Pretty fun program! It's in a lot of distro repos but if not, you can get it here:
Ok I feel kind of embarrassed asking this but would anyone know where I am supposed to plug these to?
I accidentally knocked it when trying to fix the hard drive in my Packard Bell Club 533C and now it won’t boot. It’s model number is G5GV05 - M4X4 - GI1 but I can’t seem to find a manual.
Edit: So I managed to get it to work again as I found an old not so great quality picture I took a while ago.
The hard drive light still shows up as orange on the front of the case when it boots and doesn't output a display so I guess the hard drive is dead or something? Or at least it is failing to POST
Next mini-project: set up my Pentium III Windows 98 machine to connect to Protoweb. Should be a piece of cake, if it weren't for finding a compatible NIC and installing those damn drivers! One step at a time.
