A very cool and slightly rare device that packs an alarm clock, calendar, stopwatch, and calculator all in a vacuum fluorescent display-based unit powered by a single AA battery!

A free example of the worst computer Dell ever made provided me with a free 40 GB hard drive and other parts.

The tragic story of a nearly perfect and very powerful laptop I got for free that suddenly died on Christmas Eve while I was playing a trucking game. Pathetic, ain't it?

A very cool vintage calculator that works really well, is still very useful, and is very easy and cheap to obtain!

Now we'll demonstrate a piece of Macintosh software I have on CD-ROM, boot into Mac OS 9, screw around with the text-to-speech software built into Mac OS 9, and I even give a little critique on an MTV program.

Part one of a huge series of videos documenting what has happened computer-wise in the past year. In this part, I explain the computers that have left us over the past 1+ year, and demonstrate the ever-present Compaq Presario 5360.
