@thecooldude9999 , Nope. it is a knockoff generic portable computer. I have 2 Compaq portable 3 computers and know what they look like. I also had a computer that looked just like this and it was a socket 7 system with a vga display and ran windows 95. The display cracked though.
I'd kill to get a computer like this :D I love these so much... My old IBM broke down a few years ago, sucks. Luckily you can buy these from the internetz nowadays.
Very nice! By the way, computers like those were called 'lunchbox' PCs (because of their shape). They were basically desktop systems in a case with a handle so they could be portable. I would love to find one of those and upgrade the internals to modern specs!
@SaikyoKi I have one the Compaq Portable 3 systems. Backup battery is shot, but I would say this looks "almost" the same. However my keyboard plugs into the side. I don't have a HD, but I used I think FreeDOS on a floppy.
It may be old but I have no plans on getting rid of it.
lol this was as close as it got for being that powerful before now there called cell phones lol cell phone are probebly as powerful as that........ well a regular cell phone not like an iphone ;)
That computer is too cool, I've never seen anything like it before! Classic game too, but not a patch on Prince of Persia which was from around about the same time (or at least I had them at the same time).
actually no, i just have two old computers i use to play old games or run old software. they are usually neatly stored in a closet when I don't use them
Who cares? Crysis is overrated. It starts off good, but then gets boring. Running around in corridors with virtually nothing to do is not a good gameplay experience
lol nice computer and still running good is great I use my Compaq Desk pro 4/66i from 1991 (not to old) for some daily tasks just to exercise it other than that I use a new imac I like yours what is it?
Nice, I remember playing around with a similar computer back in the days.. though it was more like laptops are nowadays.. but those orange black screens were alike :D
an old game runs perfectly on older hardware but in my case when I download any DOS game on my Windows Vista PC which is one year old, I get that message: this system does not support fullscreen mode.
Yeah well, thats Vista, you got what you paid for: a bad, buggy system with too high system requirements. For DOS games, download DOSBox. Works fine on my Mac, except Doom, which doesn't have sound.
i got a 286 at 15 mhz,and a 386 at 33 mhz,and a 486dx2-66mhz and the i had a p1 at 166mhz,and later a P3 at 800mhz ,AND NOW I GOT dual core 4600+ at 2400mhz ,8600gt 256mb video,320gb hdd, 2gb RAM ,WATH a HISTORY
Cool! I was the programmer on this game so many years ago. It was my first game written on PC and was written entirely in assembler language - I dont miss those days;-)
We are giving away a whole collection of old computers and stuff (Commdore, Amstrad, Dataphon, BTX). For more details, contact me or go to skate-date (dot) net (slash) computer-sammlung
I know that game, but i have never seen a computer that looked like a microwave oven... And that screen seems more "grayscale" (redscale?) than monocrome.
