Vintage Computers and 3D Acceleration

This is a system board from a DEC Personal Workstation 433a with a 433-MHz Alpha AXP CPU (top-left corner).

During our visit of the Home Computer Museum we spent a lot of time playing with a rare BeBox computer (or workstation?)

MIPS Magnum 4000 is derived from the Microsoft Jazz development platform which was internally used to develop Windows NT (3.1).

Three lovely #UNIX machines networked together during Bytefest 2024.

I got some new SGI computers.

The original SimCity 2000 had a strict requirement for an SVGA video card that supported 640×480 resolution with 256 colors.

I just wrapped up an article on the Toshiba T3200SX, a desktop-replacement laptop from 1989.

8bit guy published a video about SuperCGA cards, which reminded me that this was a topic a recently dug into.

I am trying to avoid buying any old computer, but a friend of mine and I made an exception in this case and bought this together.

Last summer, I put new set of alkaline batteries in this portable beauty as I needed it for a photoshoot.
