it comes down to intentions, and how one goes about it. the "i can use that" is absolutely hoarder mentality. his basement room could pass as a colection, the rest of his house less so.
Half the stuff was either covered in dust, unused but not displayed or literally being used for a mundane purpose like the CD doorstop. It's a collection when it's an organized and varied amount of stuff. This guy had multiple of the same stuff and wasn't using them. This guy is a hoarder for sure.

Yep, owned half of that equipment for sure. I did buy the Soundblaster AWE32 with 2 megs of ram and I had just enough to buy a 500MB HDD for just a little under $80 because it had 2 other owners. Than I spent $300 when the first 3gb hdd came out in early 96/97
I'd like to note that the iPad 1 is specifically a 3g model that could be used over your cell network. The standard model did not have the black section on the back.
Same! And I'm only 28! I've inherited much of the collection from my father but I remember a lot of the family tech equipment from around 94 and on. My brother and I would get the hand-me-down machines when my father would upgrade to the newest models for himself. Since we were gaming on these we became little experts at squeezing performance out of hardware from a young age. Random, mostly useless skill, but I save tonnes of $ on gaming hardware to this day because of it. Lol
I was on my way to a mess like this, but thankfully, I threw it all out. I kept some small things for my little tech museum shelf, like a copy of OS2 Warp, and an 8" (yes, 8) floppy disc.

@@lindabryant2695 Don't feel too old, I still use 8" floppy drives. The very first computer I worked on was controlled by a valve system or better known as a Vacuum Tube computer, that was programmed through a Hollerith punch card system. No keyboards or monitors back then, and any mention of a mouse in those days meant you had a definite rodent problem!! We all thought of each progressive upgrade or new system as being cutting edge. Of course the newer generations laugh at us, just like their offspring will do at them! PS, The early 5 1/2" drives had a capacity of only 160 KB (single sided), 360 KB maximum in low density and 1.2 MB in high density came later. You might be getting mixed up with the initial 3.5 Drives, they were 720k capacity. Guess after saying all that if you are as old AF, II must be older than F%&k!!! LOL Have a great day!!
@@lindabryant2695 Actually, no, it was probably either 360 KB (double density) or 1.2 MB (high density). The 3.5" disks were 720KB (DD) or 1.44 MB (HD). By the time I got my first PC (486 SLC2/66, 4 MB RAM, 200 MB HD and a CD-ROM!) in 1994, 5.25" was generally dead, but I actually got one for it later on just to run old software with. Having said that, my "beast" blew my dad's 286 IBM PS/1 that he had gotten 4 years prior out of the water 😂 (not to mention those Apple II computers I used in grade school with Number Munchers and Oregon Trail). I might have a PC with an 8 core processor with 32 GB RAM and 20 TB in hard drive space now, but I do admit to missing the old days every now and then...

I can understand this guy 100%.. I'm always like "you never know when you need it".... never needed it though
I have a pretty much full closet of JUST random wires, Everything Ive ever bought that came with a cord/ charging cable then subsequently breaks, gets thrown away... No reason to throw the perfectly good wires out though lol!
And then you throw it out and you end up needing it lol

Well I can say that I've used the Ethernet cable that I carry on my backpack more than once and it was totally worth it LOL

Same! And I'm only 28! I've inherited much of the collection from my father but I remember a lot of the family tech equipment from around 94 and on. My brother and I would get the hand-me-down machines when my father would upgrade to the newest models for himself. Since we were gaming on these we became little experts at squeezing performance out of hardware from a young age. Random, mostly useless skill, but I save tonnes of $ on gaming hardware to this day because of it. Lol

The front plate that came off in his hand is a removable cover. It would be replaced with a optical drive, or one of those 5.25" drives he was talking about (720k was the size)
Damn! I'm old Af! 😂
@@lindabryant2695 Don't feel too old, I still use 8" floppy drives. The very first computer I worked on was controlled by a valve system or better known as a Vacuum Tube computer, that was programmed through a Hollerith punch card system. No keyboards or monitors back then, and any mention of a mouse in those days meant you had a definite rodent problem!! We all thought of each progressive upgrade or new system as being cutting edge. Of course the newer generations laugh at us, just like their offspring will do at them! PS, The early 5 1/2" drives had a capacity of only 160 KB (single sided), 360 KB maximum in low density and 1.2 MB in high density came later. You might be getting mixed up with the initial 3.5 Drives, they were 720k capacity. Guess after saying all that if you are as old AF, II must be older than F%&k!!! LOL Have a great day!!
@@lindabryant2695 Actually, no, it was probably either 360 KB (double density) or 1.2 MB (high density). The 3.5" disks were 720KB (DD) or 1.44 MB (HD). By the time I got my first PC (486 SLC2/66, 4 MB RAM, 200 MB HD and a CD-ROM!) in 1994, 5.25" was generally dead, but I actually got one for it later on just to run old software with. Having said that, my "beast" blew my dad's 286 IBM PS/1 that he had gotten 4 years prior out of the water 😂 (not to mention those Apple II computers I used in grade school with Number Munchers and Oregon Trail). I might have a PC with an 8 core processor with 32 GB RAM and 20 TB in hard drive space now, but I do admit to missing the old days every now and then...
I love this episode so much... brings back all my fond memories of all those parts that I too bought and see all those upgrades over the years.....
I was surprised when Linus mentioned Supreme Commander, one of my favorite games.
Linus, check the map vault on Forged Alliance Forever. Its a community driven multiplayer lobby and vault for Supreme Commander and SupCom Forged Alliance.

Excluding the RS Model 4P and TV connected computers, I started with two 386SX PCs i got from the base aafes for $200 not working. I got one working, shipped the other to packard bell for warranty return. Sold one for $600. Over the years I kept all my upgrades starting around the first Athlon. Doesn't even fill a reach in closet. After watching this video might get an old one running capable of installing those awesome Jane's flight sims from the 90s.... still have them all!

11:48 I remember coming back from overseas and upgrading the family computer to 200MB HDD, but the OS wouldn't recognize it and I needed to upgrade from DOS 3.01 to DOS 6.22, the 2x CD-ROM I also got had some sort of custom SCSI card on it that was always a bugger to get the drivers up and running for. I really appreciate no longer trying to figure out what from Config.sys could be loaded into High Memory and what couldn't.
Didn't you use EMM386 for working with himem.sys? I did.
I dont know what u guys r saying.
Extended vs. Expanded? Does this card work in the expansion chassis with this program? IRQ conflicts, DIP switches on the silkscreen if you're lucky, in a lost manual if you're not. Those odd-sized binders that came with Lotus and DOS. Oh yeah, I hear ya.
