  • it sounds like like a spaceship! lol

  • @howardrose Is the IBM on the right side a 5160 too?

  • ah, seems either I'm too old to remember or I learned my XT's parameters from the wrong person :)

  • Wasn't it 8086? As I remember, 8088 was a co-processor.

  • is that a b747 in disguise?

  • See, the top comments in this video are great. Because there is NO speech to write down... : /
