This!!!

In 1998 I was 11, our home computer was an IBM Aptiva 95 (I loved that PC) it came with a software bundle including games Caesar II and Pitfall The Mayan Adventure among other programs like Encyclopedia Encarta 96. Other games I had were the original Command & Conquer, Wolfenstein 3D, Worms, Virtua Fighters and others I don't recall. By 2001 I got a new PC, a clone tower computer with Windows XP, an upgrade for my gaming and multimedia experience and of course, I downloaded loads of MP3's, my music folder was Nü Metal galore and a lot of Industrial Rock and Grunge, Korn, Limb Bizkit, NiN, Marilyn Manson, The Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Rammstein, you name it. Good times.

I actually had an 8bit PCMCIA to 8bit card controller in my DESKTOP PC so I could share my single wifi card between both.

And then the 1602 screen doubled that up again. I loved that game, but I could never figure out how to load soldiers into ships. I suddenly want to play it again.

HOW DOES IT RUN GAMEZ?!?!!

My 2016 Dell laptop did that recently, grabbed a slimline USB Wi-Fi adapter off Amazon and I was back online

Its probably just faulty Nic card, you could try a wired connection to test it. I have an old Acer 6935g from 2008 and it still works amazingly. It plays 720p videos and can even emulate 3ds and Wii games. It was originally a budget gaming laptop though and could run Modern warfare 2 so that maybe why it still holds up well.

Hell there are desktops with fewer ports than that thing.

To be fair can we just admire the fact that older laptops have ports in the back and not on the side. Simple yet effective wire management

:D

Dezmo Bluefire newer laptops are going back to that now, dell, lenovo, hp, etc putting the power and main ports like hdmi on the back while ports like usb c and headphone jacks are on the side

And now our internet speed is 2-3x quicker

But in the rural or village or old aged people or poor people still use 2g or 3g. India has 1.5 billion people. So majority of people use 4G. But we can't completely stop 2g or 3g. Even our internet plan comes with Daily 1.5 GB daily 4g + unlimited 2G ( after the 100% Use of 4g data + 100 sms daily + unlimited call daily to anyone ( with in in india Landline or mobile) + access to all premium apps for free . But the best thing is in the 2G or 3G era we paid for call , sms , internet , apps . And the prise was too high. I can remind 1gb 3g pack cost 300 rupees = 3.38 Euro for 28 days validity. But now we give money for internet only. Other services are free. And the lowest internet pack that is 1.5gb daily costs 5 rupees for a day which is equal to 0.056 EURO. Hope Germany will get 4G and 5G soon. Tell me the price of telecom services in Germany or how telecom operators looting you ? By the way Germany is my favourite nation in Rise of Nation Game ( its a pc offline game like age of empires , clash of clans)

But by the mid 2000s and early 2010s they started to factor the tech industry into their "one true way" for EVERYTHING that goes on in society and decided on the exact types and formfactors of technologies that would be allowed, hence why NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO MAKE ANY COMPUTER SYSTEM IN ANY FORM, TYPE OR COLOR NOR ANY OS WITH ANY INTERFACE APPEARANCE OR DEGREE OF APPEARANCE CUSTOMIZABILITY OUTSIDE OF THEIR IMPOSED CANON.

"Plug & Pray" was also called for the automatic configuration of addon cards, not just USB. Back in the days when free IRQs, DMAs et cetera could be counted with your fingers.

You guys are making me feel nostalgic. Now I miss my Gateway and Compaq computers from back then.

Having Gpu in Vesa-bus, it played some games faster than friend's 486DX2/66, which used ISA for Gpu.

Plug and Play? Or are you doing a funny joke?

Well, even if you don't have the time or space, there's DOS Box, and Virtual PC (Virtual Box), that can be downloaded and run from your current OS. You can load older OSes on that, or just use DOS Box, and use one machine for all that vintage gaming you might want to do. Hope this helped, even a little. :)

The lack of multi tasking actually made me switch back to console gaming for years. Programs running in the background causing stutters. After a while I preferred using my PS2 to my gaming pc. Both were on CRT's so no input lag and games physics were linked to the fps so many ran at 25, 30, 50 or 60 fps anyway regardless of platform. PC games did have a higher resolution but that doesn't matter that much in how much fun you have.

I bet to differ, we wern't staring at phones all day and we knew there was just 2 genders and hated socialism

do we all get excited? it is always pretty fun to visit childhood memories when life was easier and there was no stress, every day fun and joy. Try it yourself it's pretty fun and relaxing to visit those memories, you can use smell, sound and skill memories to bring back some of what you have allready forgotten. Those memories doesn't delete, they are always there even tho there are not in your longterm memory anymore, it cleans itself while you sleep so it doesn't get slow over time.
