PSA: If you wrap a PowerMac G5 Quad in polythene sheeting and then pull it through a busy London station on a homemade trolley, you are going to have a conversation with the British Transport Police...
Has anyone else noticed that ebay's "Vintage Computing" section has been overrun by trash-tier early-00s x86 desktops at ludicrously high prices? There's always been an element of that sort of pricing but now it seems like everything is £100+ as standard.
Don't even get me started on how expensive the actually-interesting Sun Ultra workstations are now
This is hands-down one of the strangest things I've ever seen in an electronic device. Do we think it's there for ease of replacement or because someone said "sod it, put it wherever it fits"?
I stitched these magazine pages together for a project I'm working on - here's some PowerPC-era goodness.
Filling in missing imagery is not something I've ever attempted in a photo editor before. The original two pages were missing the inside edges so I had to re-fabricate the edges of the two monitors on the right and create some mountain and sky.
It is now cold enough for the Quad to come out of hibernation! After a coolant top up and a bit of fan lubrication she is sitting pretty and ready for space heater duty.
