A thread to discuss old tech, show off your setups, and argue autistically about which one has the most sovl.I took out my EGA monitor that's been in storage for a few years and now the horizontal geometry is all fucked up. Feelsbadman :'(Thread theme: https://youtube.com/watch?v=bMS6G83NqFQ
>>106598645On one hand I'm kind of jealous, on the other that looks a lot like my DOSBox-Staging shaders
i hate when i get to cool threads too early
This was a lot of fun when I was a kid. Did anyone else have one of these?
>>106598769CRT shaders have never been able to scratch the itch for me idk.>>106598816Honestly me too, which is why I suck at making threads.>>106598888I remember my older brother having a knock of version. It was beige and say upright but I can't find a picture of it
>>106599034Try DOSBox-Staging if you haven't, they make a decent effort of providing shaders that look like a monitor and not like a CRT TV (which is what everyone else is doing and which is what zoomers think monitors looked like). It's not going to replace a real EGA terminal if you have that luxury, but it's quite pleasant
>>106599078I just ended up using a VGA card and monitor instead. It's a 486 clone but it's in an AT case so I wanted to do EGA for aesthetic purposes and use the VGA on my Pentium 4 machine. Oh well.
>>106599078This is the ultimate retardation. It's like converting mp3's to flac's to make them sound better.
I have too many old computers. I literally don't know where to put them anymore. Everything's in there from 286 to Amiga to other assorted crap. Help.
>>106599549Based reckless hoarder.
>>106599493I just want things to look like I remember them looking
