🍻 Pour one out for my homie.
Finally had to retire my trusty HP LaserJet P3005DN. Built in 2008, 69,593 pages printed over its life.
Bought used in 2014 for $80 at RePC. I printed ~13K pages. Printer crashes even when printing built-in reports. Paper jams often.
Aftermarket toner 7 yrs ago gave me 7,728 pages, still reports 64% life and estimates 13,740 pages left.
It's been a great run, bud.

Where did this laptop come from? It's like it just jumped at me and I took it home. I mean, who wouldn't at this price? I'd be insane.
Anyway, this little device came from #REPC in #Seattle. That's the coolest store I've ever stepped inside. The employees are total nerds. I can't wait to go back to see what else I can get my grubby little hands on. As you can tell by the photo, I installed #Linux Mint. I have plans for this little machine.

This #Apple MultiScan 1705 Display box is at #REPC in #Seattle (6th Ave location). It even has the styrofoam! (They didn’t have the monitor)
Someone go save it in time for #MARCHintosh 🤞❤️

This weekend I bought a banged up #SimCity2000 CD from #RePC Seattle. How banged up I didn't realize, until I got it home. The installer kept crashing with read errors -- many retries later, it eventually managed to unpack all the files, but the main SC2000.DAT was silently truncated, resulting in a game that would crash when certain events happened. Fortunately, I was able to pull that file off the CD using a different computer, and null modem it on over. Success! ...Now, you can bet your life I'm backing up the clean install, because I don't want to go through those gyrations again :D
