Well I was going through the junk I has stored on the webspace my ISP provides for free, and I came upong this gem I put together last year. I forgot about it...

Hmm... Speaking of old computers, I still need to hook up the old P1 75MHz again. From back when Myst was top of the line :p

I had though about it, but it`s such a classic (too bad it wasn`t an 8086), that my dad let us keep. I just wonder how long the harware will keep working for.

He bought it in 1980, and upgraded the hard drive in 82 or 83 I believe.
