  1. Peak computer design. I would buy a modern computer in that case in a heartbeat. From the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest 2025

  6. @vga256 I noticed on your profile 'classic macs' so I feel the need to share my photo of a stack of Macs, the classic Mac Stack. Happy weekend!

  11. Oh god, I resist as hard as I can but I simply need G3 iMac or at least iBook. Indigo or orange. Ideally both each different color. #retrocomputing #oldmacs

  16. Today I hooked up a USB DVD drive to a MacBook and put in a CDR I burned circa 1997 from a PowerBook 540c. Totally surprised that MacOS read it and displayed files in the Finder from a 27 year old obsolete file system.
    At any rate, here's a picture of me with a face hugger I made for fun. The picture was taken with a Quickcam. #oldmacs #computerArchaeology #alien #prop

  21. Finally got round to doing a full factory reset and clean install on my retired #MacBookAir2012 8GB ram A1466 ! Updated Mountain Lion to the last supported OS, #Catalina. Partioned the 500GB SSD for dual booting into my upcoming daily driver: #LinuxMint 21.3 Cinnamon! Really excited.

    If this all goes to plan, I want to replace the non-existent battery, reapply new thermal paste (12y+ old) and get an adapter for a NVMe ssd in there.

  26. I've finally gotten around to putting the ol' iMac G3 back together - Still without a functional CD drive or an OSX install, but I couldn't stand seeing it lying flat with its guts exposed any longer lmao

    I think I could use XPostFacto to install OSX directly to a partition from a usb key in MacOS 9 - Really want to get 10 or 10.1 in there, as early aqua really fits the translucent plastic aesthetic.

    The LTT screwdriver is probably slightly overpriced for most people, but as far as vanity purchases go, I'm at least pretty glad to have a ratcheting driver with a killer magnet now. 🎉
    Certainly made screwing the drive bay back in this darn thing wayyy easier
