I was digging through some stuff in the basement and came across my first laptop from 1998. It's pretty cool seeing old files and contacts from way back. Also some pretty good music I haven't heard in years. I will have to put that on the ol ipod

I know it has nothing to do with this forum but I thought I would share it. Its hard to believe I paid $1400 (same as my e1705) for a 200mhz P1 with 72MB of ram. It even has MMX lol.

I still got my Diamond Monster3D card with a 3Dfx Voodoo1 chip and my two Monster3D 2's I used for SLI during the Voodoo2 era. They are my most prized geeky posessions and reside in my computer parts drawer in a little box with some anti-static bags. I've been thinking of salvaging some old parts and installing that Voodoo2 SLI once again and run Quake2 in all its OpenGL glory at 1024x768 doing 50+ fps steady!!

AAAAhhhhh!!! Those were the days back in highschool!
