Which reminds me... I still have couple of Ericsson R320 S phones, in "brick red" color. I'll see if i can upload the pics tomorrow

Anyhow, I do have one question... Is this particular topic about computer hardware (and old gaming consoles) only, or about ALL the vintage stuff? Because I have a 25yr old VCR & couple of other things to show & share

JunkBear · Jan 13, 2015

Talking about VCR I got mine from a lady that sold it 20$. Like new still in original wrapping with manuals only because her new bf wanted Full HD setup only. Sears hi-fi that was 589$ back in time.

Well it started out as just computer hardware but I think any cool nostalgic "stuff" should qualify. :rockout:

I bought an Asus GTX680 DCU2 card (2 slot model) with 150 euros, was that a bad deal?

well ... since i bought a ASUS R9 290 ref for that price ... i would say ... NO

(ok ... i almost doubled that price to get her under water ... but that was totally worth it! still cheaper than a new custom cooler model)

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Jan 13, 2015

I only use a VCR for classic 70,s porn.

:eek:

I know, I know... I just didn't want to go off-topic, most people hate that

Anyhow, here it is... I got this one for free, actually I've traded it for a cheap Hyundai DVD recorder (without the HDD) It seems to be in perfect condition (considering its age), but I did have to replace the belts

Despite being manufactured by Nordmende, some of you here might recognize this tape deck as JVC. 5-motor configuration, with one motor for every operation - Capstan, idler, tape elevator (eject-load), mode-switching (cam gear) and of course the head drum (only 2-heads on this one)

well hardware is hardware be it in a PC or in a L.E.M ... uh??? :roll:

Trekkie4 · Jan 13, 2015

And here's another (maybe not so old, but still vintage) item in my collection... Akai ATT022U USB turntable, I've actually traded the real thing for this one. Used to have the Kenwood KD-1600, but sorry to say I've had dozens of problems with that one, so I decided to get something else instead. There's nothing "professional" about this model, I know that but considering most of the other, modern USB turntables this one is actually pretty nice!

This Shure M94E came off my old Kenwood, and I'm STILL hoping to use it on Akai one of these days... I'll probably need to buy a new headshell first

In dog years, my dog Jess, is 63, she has been fitted with a micro-chip and consequently deserves a mention in the Nostalgic Hardware Club.

rtwjunkie · Jan 13, 2015

I'll be adding to the stuff I posted here already. Just got to dig out some old skt 478 era stuff, might take a couple days. Plus I know I have a PIII around somewhere.
