Hi! Can we entertain each other with our fun stories about the oldest or weirdest tech we've come across?
Please boost for science or cows or something. TELL US YOUR COOL STORY!
edit: as suggested, adding the hashtag #WeirdOldTech to keep this stuff going a bit (hint: you can follow hashtags).

While starting Uni (2006!), I was a part-time IT labourer at my former school. There were computers for programming classes, and I think they had 32 MB RAM at that point. Sometimes Windows OS would stop booting on them, and I would come with my personal handy LiveCDs collection. Linux LiveCDs (Knoppix, Slax) were cool, but didn't boot on 32 MB as I remember. But FreeBSD one, called Frenzy, booted, and I could inspect the hardware condition, mount disk, repair filesystems (FAT and NTFS).
