About

Hi everyone. I am happy to see you on my channel and hope you enjoy going back in time. I grew up in a very exciting time of PC computing. The internet was not yet widely used, but it became very common to have PCs in every household. The first PC I did not share with anybody else was an AMD 486 DX4 100 with Windows 3.11 and later Windows 95. I read a lot of PC Magazines back in the '90s and enjoyed new hardware releases like the Voodoo accelerator cards, Pentium II in their Slot 1 configuration, and many more. Unfortunately, I did not have the money to buy them all. 25 years later, it seems to become a hobby of mine to play around with old hardware. If you like to see old hardware and odd projects here and there, please subscribe to my channel and join me in exploring the world of retro hardware!
