OS-tan Talk / Re: More IBM-tans III: The One...

We'll see!  Mainline PDPs have always been off the table to me since other folks, especially you, did most of the original designs.  We can talk about splitting them up if you want.

I can see it.  Doesn't hurt that she has white hair too.  And those eyes in your drawing of her...  EDSAC is also very cute, but definitely a different cute.  I like her fluffy hair and can see some fun things to write with her ghoulish sense of humor, considering what happened to a lot of her generation of early computers.

Everyone loves glass in their stockings!

That's such a cute card, it looks great for the era.  Like a Lincoln Labs Christmas card.

Finally made space on my messy project bench, so I can have something else than just heaps of unfinished console projects.

iMac that I've had since 2005? 06? Hadn't booted it in probably 10 years, and this silly thing just powers on without issue. Still, I installed a pirated OSX Panther on it long ago, and its clearly not running optimal on that, after all 1998 hardware trying to run a 2003 OS. I should look into downgrading it down to OS 9, as what it was originally running.
Pretty silly that it supports a modern-ish bluetooth keyboard just like that.

Man I miss my G1 iMacs. I wish I had the space to keep them in my current place. T_T

Nice mug too. ^__^

Happy Holidays, OSC!

But you better watch out or Whirlwind-hime will stick one of her disastrously malfunctioning electrostatic memory tubes in your stocking.

Just built my current system, but still didn't stop me from picking up a new case.



Because, WOOD.

Also bought an another Arc B580. because after I bought my first one, there was a new 3-fan model of it, and I want to try to build a quiet air cooled system.
Not to mention not a bad idea to have an extra GPU in the current market situation.

Lots of rumours going about Intel announcing a 300Watt B770 card come January, but I cant imagine it going for any sensible price now.

Those old iMacs and eMacs die hard, they're like tanks.

The co-pilot and Creeper throw me out of it.

Copilot ruins it

Shame, it's fun otherwise. (Might need to draw some of the Windows-tans in it)

First the Crocs. Now, uh. This.



Tbh, I wouldn't mind it, if it wasn't tainted by that copilot logo.
And the creeper.
