    Default PC's of our History

    I have a lot of old computers and have been meaning to start a thread that shows me taking them apart. I'll post them all here.

    First up, the Tandy 128K Color Computer (CoCo) 3 from 1986!



    Don't worry, I'm a professional



    I took off the shell



    Then spun it around











    Here's the mobo pulled out



    And the power supply...





    I know I can put this somewhere....

    I think you have just voided your warranty there TGS.

    Sweet old thing though. When does the Core 2 Duo and 8800GTX go in?

    That is so cool!
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    Aww man, that is cool. I want me a wall of mobo's. When I have my own house in the future I'll have to do something similar, I have plans for the house I want built and I'm gonna do my best to make them happen.

    But yeah, I had no clue that Tandy's are real. I guess H*R isn't all fictional, now is it? lol
