Hammered a few more nails in the puta, and it seems to be holding together.

We'll see how long it lasts though.:biggrin:

Bought a new puta tower this afternoon. I'm still perservering with the old one for the moment.....hopefully the new one will be up and running by tomorrow afternoon. That is, if I can work it out by then. :2fun:

Anyone using Windows 7 out there.

Hi Dave, Win 7 Home Premium 32 bit.

That's got to be better than Vista, I hope.

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes. Better than Vista. I went from XP Corp to Win 7.

 

[p.risboy]

Yes. Better than Vista. I went from XP Corp to Win 7.

At least you by-passed the rubbish Vista then......good move.

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes. I ran Win 2000 for a long time and then XP Corp for a long time and then put Win 7 on my latest system.

 

[p.risboy]

Yes. I ran Win 2000 for a long time and then XP Corp for a long time and then put Win 7 on my latest system.

I've done the whole set from Win 95, but Vista was a huge mistake. But I persevered in hope, but all to no avail.
Couldn't be bothered to go back to XP, so I deserve all the stress for being a lazy 'B'.:2fun: :2fun:

My first computer was a 16k Commodore PET :2fun:

Windows for Workgroups 3.11 was ok.

I wasn't born when 3.11 came out. :2fun: :2fun:

Blimey mate....and that was cutting edge in those days.:2fun: :2fun:

Makes you wonder how you managed in the 'old' days, with those tapes.

Well. The cassette tapes in the original PET were a real pain. My 2nd system was a 16k Business PET with the dual floppy drive the size of 4 house bricks.

The 6502 processor in the PET was interesting. You could peek and poke (read and write) to a few I/O ports. I connected it to a VHS tape drive remote control input and wrote a program on the PET that would fast forward and stop and play various VHS tapes.

Just googled PET.

PET 2001 series / 2001-N & -B series, CBM 3000 series

CPU: 6502, 1 MHz
RAM: 4 or 8 KB / 8, 16, or 32 KB

MY new one-

CPU - 2.8 GHz and 4GB RAM.

How techno moves on. :2fun: :2fun:

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes, it certainly does. Yes CBM = Commodore Business Machine - mine had a whopping 32k. :2fun:

My current system has a 360 Gb and a 1Tb hd and 8 Mb RAM. It will keep me happy for a few more years.

Hope this new lasts longer, as the pile of old ones outside the window is beginning to look bad.:biggrin: :biggrin:
The neighbors are starting to complain about the pile of scrap.:2fun:
