  • Not a bad deal for only $5! I know you said you got this one at Value Village, but did you get all your PBs there? I used to have a PB myself and would like to get another one sometime. Your collection of these computers is very impressive!

  • @JEMASCOLA Thank you! I've gotten all my Packard Bells from Value Village, except for my Legend 1510 Supreme which came from eBay back in 2005.

  • @Roadgeek Cool! You actually inspired me to check my local Value Village, and sure enough - I got me a PB Platinum Supreme 1665 for $3.24 including tax. It has Windows Me on it but am planning to put Windows 95 on it.

  • @JEMASCOLA Cool! The Platinum Series of Packard Bells were pretty much the best that money could buy back in the mid '90s. Some, including my PB2990, included a TV tuner card. Take good care of your 1665!

  • Does the sound card have any form of FM synthesis?

  • @kargaroc386 It certainly does. You can hear it in this video during the "My First Encyclopedia" segment. It uses that Packard Bell Software Wave Table Technology.

  • @Roadgeek My old plat supreme 1850 from 1997 has USB on the motherboard. :D

  • Wow that brings me back! My dad had a similar computer back in the mid 90's.

  • What is the Red CD on the desk?

  • My best frined it´s solding a Paclard Bell EX 510. You would probably want it.

    He will sold today on ebay for 20$. It doesn´t have any diskett drive, beacause the original it´s broken.

    But it cames with a Windows 95 Master CD for that computer, a Main Windiws 95 Disk with the Seral Number included, Microsoft BOB, Office 95 and Mcfee antivirus for Windows version 2.3.

  • how many computers do you have . why are p.b your favorite old brand.

  • I wouldn't mind seeing you get on the internet with this.
