So, this most recent weekend was the Baltimore Area Hamfest, and, as usual there were some awesome "recently vintaged" computing finds, as long as you were looking for the 95-2002 era.
I think my favorite find was a complete Xybernaut MA IV system with wearable touchscreen, the headmounted display, and augmented-reality camera system.
everything works perfectly with the exception of a little water vapor that's accumulated in the touchscreen overlay for the arm display.
I can't help but feel an overwhelming sense of 90's uber-dork while wearing this around, either that or a need to hack the planet.
