      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A48       MSGID: 1:154/154 c4d7f841       REPLY: 2:310/31 61f94812       TZUTC: -0500              OE> zxspectrum my first, whats yours?              My first was an IBM Aptiva - forget the model number, but it came out in 1996.       It had a black chassis and the CD/Floppy/Power button were on an external unit       that connected via a SCSI card to the PC. Made getting the floppy and CD to       work a bit challenging sometimes (some older versions of MSCDEX didn't work       with this configuration). Windows 95 wouldn't recognize the CD drive without       the appropriate SCSI driver.               I later ventured off into DOS machines and then went older. I have a breadbin       64 and a breadboard cartridge. I also have an Amiga 4000, IBM PS/2 56SLC       (which I am typing this message on), PowerMac G5 dual, and a dell optiplex       GX1. I have a Toshiba Tecra 530CDT laptop from 1996 in the mail.               I don't really use many computers newer than 2004. I don't like the modern       computers nor the modern operating systems. The newest computer I have is a       Raspberry Pi 4 - which I will use with my C64 soon (I plan on making a       cartridge port to GPIO port adapter first, then we will see what I come up       with next).               How ya gonna do it? PS/2 it!              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 2022/02/11 (Linux/64)        * Origin: SPOT BBS / k9zw (1:154/154)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 15/0 18/200 90/1 105/81 106/201 114/705 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/120 131 129/305 330 331 153/802 7715 154/10 154 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 112 113 206 317 400 424 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/452 470 664 700 266/512 282/1038 292/854 298/25 27 28       SEEN-BY: 298/30 33 34 35 305/3 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45       SEEN-BY: 460/58 633/280 712/848       PATH: 154/154 298/25 317/3 229/426           |
