Sexiest old computer?


Recommended Posts

 

BBB's? (Big boobed blonds). I dunno... everyone I've ever met was either crazy, dangerous or very high maintenance. Of course that is just my experience.

 

All true ..

Thread was sexy not wife material.

 

I have a Sicilian wife a with nice handful for breasts. Nothing big on her other than an attitude but I like that sassiness. Extremely low maintenance.. no expensive hobbies and her aunt works at major cosmetic company so she gets endless free cosmetics/perfume! It saves me a fortune! Oh if we ever got in a fist fight she would probably beat me up. Some may consider this a negative. I don't.

Everyone knows it's the X68000.

I've never owned one or even seen one, but the X68000 was a monster gaming machine. It pretty much was an arcade machine disguised as a computer. Some of the best video game music out there:

Honestly, after how long this thread has been here, I'm surprised the Heathkit H89 has not been posted yet. It's design was an inspiration for a few other machines IIRC.

 

Nice, but I prefer the VT100. The brown colour scheme always reminded me of the Atari XL line. Here's mine with my DEC GIGI.

The GIGI even looks like a 1200XL.

How about a Gateway Handbook 486? These were great in the day, about the size of a VHS tape with a full keyboard. I still have mine running Windows 95 with floppy attachment..

 

This is not my picture.. I remember, if you put in a PCIMA card running on battery. it would change from 45 min to about 5 min...it was trying to run a pop out network card :)

 

Very small and Sexy for it's day.

Here are a few more that haven't yet been mentioned.

 

The DEC VT05 terminal:

The Billings 6000 - keyboard, monitor and computer cases were chromed steel (a computer that would nicely match the Cylons from Battlestar Galactica):

And a weird one from Holland, the Holborn 6500:
