@EncoreEnterprisesLLC The original IBMs are pretty much the best keyboards ever made. Northgate Omnikeys are also good, but more obscure. On the Apple side, the Extended Keyboard I and II are fantastic. All have the same clicky switch feel.

@Maxxarcade Bought some ram from ebay but one of the 256 sticks seems to be dead. It's running on Windows XP SP3. None of my older Linux distros want to install so it was Windows or bust. It's still fun taking these prehistoric machines and seeing what they are capable of by today's standards.
About dropping in a Pentium 3, I was going to but the celeron and the P3 are identical in terms of specs except the Tualatin added an additional 256 L2 cache but that would require finding a 370 adapter

Keep up with the great videos.
Nothing better than coming home after school and seeing new videos from Maxxarcade.

@mociinurbo What OS does it use? The old Celerons were slow, so if you could put a Pentium 3 in there and add some more RAM, it would probably be a lot faster.

Are the older mechanical keyboards better than the modern keyboards? I haven't had a chance to use mechanical keyboards like the IBM Model M, and I mostly been used to using the newer style keyboards.

@EncoreEnterprisesLLC Some people don't like them because they make more noise and have a different feel. Only way to know, is to try one. I'm sure you could find a mechanical keyboard in a store demo area. An original IBM Model M might be harder to come by though.
