    When I was in middle school, my father worked on the MWave team at IBM. Every once in a while he would take my brother and me into the lab where they had a huge walk-in closet of video games they used to test the hardware and we would get to "check out" games to take home and play for a few weeks. I hadn't thought about that in years and seeing you unbox that MWave card reminded me. Good times, terrible card.

      I have one of those. It's a trident 3DImage9750 with a couple vram chips on the host card. RJ-45 to the client hardware. They had some funky Windows integration to allow parallel sessions on Win 98. They later released a 100% software version, BeTwin.

    Thank you, Clint, for a brilliantly chilled video after a long, stressful week. I had a similar Timex watch back in the day. It was built like a brick and quite huge for my rather slim wrist. Sync worked with CRTs only (although there was an LED thingie available as an extra for LCD screen users). The watch was quite lovely but I was annoyed by it having space for a single "app" only - so either a stopwatch or a timer, but not both. Still very fondly remembered after roughly two dacades. Thanks again, Clint!

    1:09:02 - I saw that device and was immediately transported back about 25 years. The four-button “mouse” looked extremely familiar… my parents owned an engineering company, and I recall seeing that in one of the offices. It would make sense, since the staff could use that to copy in drawings into a computerised format, using CAD software, using the target above the mouse.

    19:35 It is interesting to know that Robotron was also a name of an East German manufacturer of computer-related stuff, relatively widespread in the Eastern Europe and USSR in the late 1980s and early 1990s. I remember a Robotron dot matrix printer at school in the early 1990s, connected to DVK-2 (that was a server for a class of 10 BK-0010-01 clients preloaded with a 1986 Vilnius Basic ). We saved our programs to diskettes on that server and printed out listings on that printer.
