Solution: Buy a old 286 from a antique shop :P - No really, i believe that this is the best option ( if, of course, it can be found ). I would really want to have a old 286 a 386 just for these old games.

I have an old P133 but I gave that to my sister so she could have a computer to write reports on and such. When she gets a better one I want that one back. That can play Privateer II the way it was supposed to. Rather I would have a way of playing it on this computer. It saves on the hassle.

3 years ago i selled to a student my old 486dx... i should never had done that.. i have regreted it a lot ( as i should never had selled my Amiga 500 ... another big mistake :) )

Seriously.. i have 16 486-DX33's @ home... just no motherboards... (also about 200 MB worth of SIMM-modules, along with 10 90-160 MB HD's)


MUHAHAHAHA!!! erhm.... anyone got an old motherboard?

The only computer I ever sold was my first PC a 25mhz 486. I have not regreted that for a second. My P133 could do everything that thing could and could do it better. Right now I'm waiting to buy a new AMD64. Once the 939 pins motherboards and chipsets are on the market and decently priced I will buy it. I'm getting tired of this Athlon 900mhz. It's not even XP. Well this is getting a little of topic now.

old motherboards.. old motherboards..
inventory:
2 old, grime(and possibly some spilt drink) covered keyboards..
1 nice keyboard
1 normal mouse
1 wireless mouse + recharger
1 joystick (collecting dust as the game I used it for crashes now)
1 xtra fast PC
1 super-backup baterry system(UPS?)
1 Large just-in-case the type they use in offices fan(use this in the summer, even with the PC's 3 fans it overheats)
1 250mb Zip drive
1 HP Deskjet 895Cxi printer
1 HP Scanjet 6200C
1 22-inch monitor
Piles of old PC stuff(Fans, power supply,cd drives x 2 and allot of cables)
no motherboards. sorry.
Just 1 really good PC

My brother also collects the old stuff. I have what I need and I don't keep anything old I don't need. Really what would I want with an old 266mhz PII? Sure I could play some old games on it but that's it. I don't have the room to keep it standing anyway. I just want my P133 back so I can play Privateer II again. That's it. The rest I will either sell or give away.

*L* I HAD to move the posts... hehe.. we where getting WAAAY off topic ;)

really... what was your first computer? for me everything started at the distant 1983 with a ZX Spectrum :)

I think it was my fathers MAC SE.. (all-in-one with a black/white 6" (?) monitor and a MFHD-driver :)
