[Futfwrca]

i basically got my grandpa's leftovers. we got the trs-80 some time after he got the apple ][e(lololooolol tandyloloololollll cassette tapeswtflolololollomgwtf). i got the apple ][e some time after he got a 286. i bought a 486 from my sisters work after getting married. then i built something with an athlon 2200, a gb of memory, that is still around here working, i have 200gigs of music and pics on that.

^ the athlon...the switch on the case is shorted out so you have to know which two prongs on the motherboard to connect to start the computer. then there is the typical bios and windows password. i always tell people if you can start my computers you are allowed to play with them.
