But Psivewri, CaN IT RUn CrIsIS
@@rikdenbreejen5230 lol
Doubt modern hardware would last 31 years
Psivewri dude can you make a full basic tutorial of a gaming pc build?
Congrats on 100K you deserve it keep up the good work
We should celebrate the 100k subs with some eucalyptus oil cleaning on the incoming silver button.
yes ur genius
Cool
smart
Yeah he really should! The first guy I have ever seen using eucalyptus oil. But it seems to work well
@@justusgovaert He's a koala in a human costume
congratulations on the 100k! also, please consider a easier name for the channel? 😅 it takes me longer than I like to admit to find this channel every time.
Life of Boris aah our boris is a retro computer fan
oh blin the Slav king is here
I see you're a man of culture as well.
Damn
Weird seeing you out here with 56 likes and 4 replies. :'D
If he doesn’t use eucalyptus oil I’ll be severally depressed!
Was Steve Jobs And Steve Wozniak name inside of the computer? Good video by the way I am 46 and I remember that computer from Junior High
Jobs wasn't at Apple, and Woz didn't work on the Mac.
@Labelz • 69 years ago • oh wait its your username cool tactic lol thats really cool
Their names were in the 1984 macs and in some se/30s
Steve and Woz were long gone from Apple at that point
U r old
Use the second casé to build a sleeper pc. Beautiful casé loveit
That's some brig brain thinking
They are difficult to do that in, because of the case being all plastic. So one has to be super careful when doing that..
That's a really cool idea
@@anumeon you can buy an mac book pro in bad shape, and doit with style :)
Federico Matías Perez you mean put a MacBook Pro inside the case?
Love seeing old tech being revived and it's still useful for some things even today. Nice !
I'm probably being nostalgic but I miss those days where even basic computer functions were super exciting.
I miss the days when upgrading your Mac meant something other than a trip to the Apple store.
@@1337penguinman and buying a new one because everything is soldered
The voiceovers on these vids always cracks me up hahaha. “If your engine sounds like this it might be time to get a new one” lol.
You should do a vid about your everyday computer set up.
congrats on 100k!!
No replys:O
Hi, great work. I’d recommend a light machine oil (like sewing machine oil) for the moving parts in the floppy drive, if the WD40 dries out the oil should last longer.
White lithium grease works as well.
Thanks for the tip, I'll have to get some!
@@psivewriGET! MORE! MACS!
Ahh i miss after dark, used to have so much fun in school. Installing these 😂
i was on a IIci in '89 with 21" radius (and the monster rasterops video card that powered it) made the workstation a fabulously rare and incredible thing. Mind you, pushbutton phones were pretty cool, too.
Congratulations on your 120k+ subscribers! You deserve it! 💗
Congrats on the 100k subs mate. Your channel has grown quick I remember when I subbed it was at 46k. Can't wait to see more awesome restorations in the future and see some eucalyptus oil sprayed on the play button.
CONGRATS ON THE 100K WOO WOO 🎉🎊🎉🎊
Wow!! 31 years old. The IICi, which looks like that was my first Apple computer in 1993 when we bought it used from a seller in San Francisco. I remember some of those games and programs.
I remember seeing it for the first time when I was in college, and being amazed with the colors, after being used to years of Mac classic/plus monochrome screen.
I’ve seen a dustier floppy drive. I saw one that was literaly covered in dust that had to be at least an inch thick.
"If your car engine sounds like this it may be time to get a new one" Brother, I do not wish to alarm you but if your car sounds like this then you are driving a square wave.
ladies, if he:
-plays wind instruments
-is good at keeping time
-is a non-sinusoidal waveform
Then he’s not your man, he’s a square wave
I'd rather drive a vaporwave.
One of the old mac's greatest strenght is the speed they run at.
I'm still amazed at how fast it is to do stuff on my old SE/30
Happy 100k subs Psivewri! Love your videos man!
The IIcx was one of my first developer machines. Great review. Thanks for some nostalgia.
Nearly dead Mac: I-m go-ing to diiie 🎵 (Mac death chime)
Definitely we have to made a sleeper pc with the non working one, what a beautiful case
THEO Hackintosh 🤗
yeah like even put a raspberry pie in it or something
Awesome revamp. I used one of these in my first job, using Aldus PageMaker and MacDraw to create engineering training material. Still love them! Well done!
Ah !! The sweet Mac IIcx, my workhorse (with a greyscale monitor) for many years, back in the days. Great memories.
Another good rebuild project sir. Definitely very entertaining. I hope you are well with all the fires in the land of Auss. Thank you for uploading videos during these times. This is appreciated Nathan. (:
Happy 100k Subs! Your amazing and always boost my mood! Nice work and don’t like anything stop you!
Thanks for another great video! Congrats on 100K!
8:03 Well there's a sentence that had never been spoken until now!
6:58 the indigo sound effect,was that the same sound from Red Fox - Pose Off intro?
Seeing that machine brings back fond memories of when I was 12! We had Claris, After Dark and of course Norton Utilities.
I’m only here for methylated spirits
Awesome! the other one that is broken would be a great candidate for a sleeper PC.. imagine put that retro case but having the internal running modern component and run hackintosh would be just insanely COOL!
You should be a walking billboard for methylated spirits lol, I enjoy your videos.
Norton Disk Utility: **Runs**
Nathan: **gets excited**
Nice to find a) a fellow Aussie ‘tuber and b) someone else touching on retro computers.
Where abouts in Aus are you?

Nice. I had Mac IIcx and Iici many years back and sold/gave them away. I wish I have kept them. Still I kept Mac Quadra 700 with the same form factor...
Congratulations on your 100k Sub!! Happy for you.
This, you can use for midi music composition with some vintage midi music hardware and software for the system. A color gui ALWAYS helps!
Came for the old hardware. Stayed for the cleaning hw parts. :D
What is the smallest hard drive that you have? I never seen an 80MB hard disk before. It is such a great thing that you managed to salvage such a small hard disk.
I have a Seagate ST-506 5 megabyte, the one the interface was named after.
It still worked 10 years ago.
That is really cool! I had one of those (I'm old) and recognize some of those programs. That was state-of-the-art back then. I think my next machine was a Macintosh which I still have. I'm using a mid-2010 Mac Pro with lots of upgrades to handle Photoshop and Lightroom. These old tower machines are very upgradeable and expandable (and still very useful).
mac still made tower machines up to 2010?
I thought that was the year they brought out the trashcan thing
Do you have any idea if those were also upgradable at all?
@@coolelectronics1759 the trash cans are very difficult to upgrade

Yay! As old as our country! (Slovak republic)! BTW congrats for 100 000 subscribers! I am not very tech guy but I enjoy your videos and (suprisingly for me) I can understand terms you use! Huge love from Slovakia!
reminds me of the time I was working for an apple dealer. Worked a lot with all systems, from SE up to quadra and G3. Actually bought an IIsi for (now) 4700 euro!!!
Shanghai and NetRisk where the favourites in the office. and there was a game with rockets in space, played over ethertalk.
I'm an old fashion-vintage mac machines lover, your video are amazing because let us see all that technology comes inside of this machines at time. sorry about my poor english and, congratullations. Greetengs from México...
This guy's shed must be a collectors dream
Watched one video out of curiosity...
Many video later...
These are satisfying af!
Using the Macintosh Iicx for TWO MINUTES! WOW!
Cool disassembly video btw.
Put the case in hydrogen peroxide overnight to restore natural white colour of the case. BTW Congrats for 100k 👍
Don't you need UV-lights to make that work?
@@luxembourger Yeah, I Forgot to mention that 😅
@@GamingZoneGz7 I always see on TH-cam people putting stuff outside. I have often sun in front of my house, but putting something outside in my neighborhood is not an option. The not only the yellow would disappear, but the whole object. I will have to buy those lamps. It will probably take longer than under the sun.
One of my favourite graphics packages was Aldus SuperPaint 3.0. Not sure if it was compatible with the version of Mac OS 7.1 you have there, but as I recall, I was using Mac OS 7.x with SuperPaint on my MacBook 180c.
IF you have SuperPaint, you could do a whole segment on it, it's that nice a program that has never been replaced. It had a draw layer and a paint layer. You could draw things, then cut them to the paint layer, or even cut parts of the paint layer to the draw layer. I used SuperPaint for simulations of interfaces and even for backgrounds for presentation slides. I really miss SuperPaint.
Cheers!
Back when they were repairable. Those were the days 😍
Congrats on 100k! My god that case would look amazing for a sleeper pc!
love the pc in the back ground
Hey Psivewri, the dead motherboard and video card can still be fixed if you know how to solder. Especially the video card that looks fine but doesn't work, the most common issues with a dead video card that doesn't let the computer turn on is a shorted capacitor that is really easy to get online as a pack of.
Our shop class had one of those in middle school for CAD. We just played some Breakout knockoff on it 😂
100k! congratulations!
I could watch this all day and never get bored :P
Congrats on 100k. I remember watching you when you were well under 10k.
The case looks nice, I want to build a morden pc in it.
The 2CX was one of my favorite pre-power pc Macs.
Congrats to 100K 🎉🎊

Me and my brother used to have a IIci as kids from our dad. That was nice.
Quick off-topic question. At the start of the vid whats that wallpaper on the monitors behind you? The pink sky and mountain thing? I'd love to have that myself ^.^
The cx was a rare limited edition. It was quickly replaced by the IIci which was much better and had a cache card slot as well as a snap-in removable power supply. The ci was a massive hit and produced in huge quantities. You should also definitely get a RasterOps 8/24 NuBus video card for it. Those and SuperMac cards were dope back in the day.
A IIci was my first real computer. I was 12 and it launched my interest is computers and design. 30 years later I am still using a Mac and making a career out of it. Thanks for the flashback 😊
Great video as usual. If Macs looked like that today and you could access the innards with a single screw, I’d be a happy man. Macs used to dare to be different but now every new Mac is identical in appearance to the last. My first Mac was a 1998 iMac G3. Best computer ever.
Congrats!! Here's some feedback for you. Can you use a wider lens and have your hands exposed so that you can have some amount of hand motion going on? Because right now it looks like someone has strapped you onto that chair. Hope you take this feedback in a positive way.
Been watching you for quite a while. Congrats on 100k!
Gz on 100k!
I have never seen one of these macs before. I only have ever used the apple 2c I think in school back then.
100k subs!!! amazing man! good work. i love watching your video and my favorite has to be the gaming with the HP stream 😊
Good job on 100k!
This brought back memories. I used to play Prince of Persia 2 on mine - great times.
Nice job on hitting 100,000 subs!
Don’t know how I found you but so glad that I did.
Binge watching and I feel the need to get myself a bottle of methylated spirits and eucalyptus oil just to clean some old tech lying around at home 😍
That’s the first computer and operating system I ever used. We had them in my school computer/typing class.
Great videos by the way! I just subscribed.
Congrats on 100k!
I had that Mac when it came out! I don’t want to go back to os 7. There were so many extension conflicts. We had to use Conflict Catcher by Cassidy an d Greene to make it all work.
Congratulation for 100k!!!
Beautiful machine! I love old mac's.
7:27 I enjoyed the Daleks game, although looking back the gameplay is extremely basic and it's difficult to really fail once you know how the game works. Still, always fun to trick the daleks into crashing into eachother.
Your videos are the longest ads for
eucalyptus oil I have ever seen..
Love this channel. Retro machines are so good to see back.
Dude is a beast with that eucalyptus oil. Uses every video!
how did you get a modern monitor to work on such old hardware?
I thought these things predated VGA let alone DVI
were you running some kind of adaptor?
Or was this machine made when VGA became standard?
Because I was also under the impression that mac stuff used an entirely video output standard altogether.
I had this same computer in 1999, good to see it again
Such a blast of nostalgia. I remember this Mac well. Thank you!
I had to go on your channel just to see if you were that old
BreezyEasy yep! The ‘80s Macs were the first computers I used extensively. I was just a kid, but I was hooked!
I lusted after this machine, using one at work when the design folks were not using it. I learned Photoshop on it. Photoshop 1.0!
4:49
Psivewri: All dusted out
Me: TERMINATOR SEES DUST!
i love your storytelling in your videos! keep it up! ps.i would like to see a video about mac pro 1.1! 🙂
I remember Learning how to type on this machine in elementary school.
This was totally amazing... 1989 was lit
Wow that's so cool I bet it can run crysis at 420 fps
Cool! I have a IIci in my collection that I haven't gotten to power up yet. This may be the motivation I need to look it at. So many, so little time ;) Good job on getting that up and running!
Nice little old Mac :-)
80 mb hard drive for 1989 is actually quite big. Our 386 was quite the beast in 1990 or was it 1991? And we only had half that, and I remember this being a big deal at the time.
