10 years after I’ve left my mother’s home she decided to make some renewal.
In order to proceed it was necessary to clean some (a lot) of my stuff still there: I got a sunday call and lost my opportunity to make a nice nap.
In exchange I had the opportunity to find some vintage technology that included:
OS/2 2.0 (original)
OS/2 2.1 (original)
OS/2 3.0 (beta, original and paid for!)
OS/2 3.0 Warp (original: any doubt about the fact that I liked OS/2?)
AT&T Unix system V 3.2 (original, a bunch of 5¼” floppy disks)
Borland Paradox 4.5 (original)
Populous (original, the first one, 5¼” floppy disk)
A bunch of other games on 5¼” floppy disks
An SGI 02 motherboard (without CPU)
An SGI Indy XL video card
This was all sent to the trashcan
But I could not force myself into a complete cleanup and I’ve kept some of the stuff that moved into my garage:
1MB memory expansion for apple II GS
Compaq Deskpro EN (Pentium 3, disk missing)
A lot of original games on 3½ disks that likely are not working anymore
A lot of games on CDROM that will need a VMware machine to run in freedos
A trustmaster joystick that connects to an analog gameport
