This brings back memories, as a kid I had an old windows 98 thinkpad laptop in the xp/early vista days since my dad bought it for cheap and gave it to me to play with like a 100 classic games pre-installed like prince of persia, civilization, Space invaders, worms, lemmings And stuff like that I'm born in 1997 so this allowed me to experience classic games that came before my time and made me appreciate them Comment from : Janusz Kurahenowski |

I have this Compaq Armada computer Bought it for 5€ a few years agobrbrWorks like a charm Comment from : Incumbent Vinyl |
|
I was given a CompaQ Armada a while back and it was fascinating It actually helped me out as it bridged the gap between floppy and USB, which unlocked downloading DOS games for my 31 PCbrbrUnfortunately I don't have the time or space to play with any of it these days but it's all still there Comment from : Voxl Valyx |
|

|

|
Is whipper snapper an insult?
brIf you refer to a young person as a whippersnapper, you disapprove of them because you think that they are behaving more confidently than they should this bunch of irresponsible young whippersnappers Comment from : BenjiinNZ |
|
Iv never owed a capable PC 🙄 hope to one day Comment from : Matthew |

The asshole shitting on a 25 year old laptop is so cringe inducing it makes me vomit That device was probably state of the art at the time, and the fact that it still works is amazing Comment from : Josip Eraković |
|
I remember upgrading from Win 311 to Windows 95 and 95 seemed so modern, so shiny in comparison, they even had the Rolling Stones at the Launch party "start me up" of course the song would be over by the time it had actually started upbrbrIn 96 i would have been downloading MP3's (yep they existed) at Uni , putting them onto a 100MB Zip Drive, and bringing them home Thankfully some of the Uni's PC's had Zip drives attached, it was the futurebrbrAnyone remember Warez sites Comment from : David Renton |
|
Psh, you think those were problems Try gaming on an early 80's portable computerbrbrGot less ram than modern cpus have cache Comment from : Megaross |
|
You had to be a dedicated nerd to get games to run on early windows hardware My first computer didn't even have Windows so I was only running DOS I think the first "windows capable" computer I had was a 286 sx (no alu) and it was running windows 30! And I was trying to run flight simulators and it was a crap shoot at best Comment from : squidkid2 |
|
You mean you never sync'd a palm pilot or printed a document to a battery powered inkjet via IR port? I'm too old Comment from : Marty McFly |
|
You can disassemble those old TFT display panels and replace the dead florescent lamps in them I used to do that back in the days with the Satellite and Tecra line at my first IT job before we switched to Dell and LED backlights became standard Comment from : Marty McFly |
|
"when i was a teen, i used to look at alot of pictures" ;) Comment from : BlueSpartan 076 |
|
That IR port is actually quite convenient for short distance file transfers IIRC Windows 9x had a feature to easily transfer files between computers equipped with those, and transfer speeds weren't so bad I used it to transfer drivers and whatnot to a half-broken Compaq LTE that lacked any sort of removable drives with a dead serial port Comment from : PET_2001 |
|
you you how did you get my laptop Comment from : omid dana |
|
Did he just say his half sisters dad was his uncle? Comment from : CaymanHillDesigns |

|
So THOSE are the laptops they have at my high school Comment from : MCAWESOME 19 |
|
Honestly, 4 gigs of storage at that time was quite a bit I remember my mom was in college around that time, and she had a PC with only one gig Comment from : Aravolt |
|
This man aged a lot in just 2 years, maybe it’s the beard Comment from : SowSow |
|
When i started working for a computer repair place about 6 months ago i was very surprised at how many people still own laptops and desktops that are nearly as old as this one Also practically cant work on them period because policies but its fascinating to take a took at them Comment from : Miles Lee-Rogers |
|
Headphone jacks are not THAT freakish today Unless you buy your stuff in a fruit storebrbrI guess i just drope useful things not as quick, just bcause they are uncool Comment from : Thisandthat |
|
I had this laptop as a kid A really cool feature is that the floppy disk drive could be swapped out for an extra battery And it ran roller coaster tycoon pretty well! Comment from : Jeremy Wilson |
|
That machine won't have a lithium battery It might be nickel metal-hydride (NiMH), but is probably nickel-cardmium (NiCad) Comment from : pleappleappleap |
|
I can tell the young kids of 1995 still prefer gaming! Comment from : Kim Land |
