Every now and then I see a vintage car in the street, originally from the 40s or 60s, in spotless condition. Cars have been around for longer than computers… But would such a thing be viable for electronics?
Wait, does it exist already and I never heard of it?
This… Really feels like a very stupid question. Sorry
ha, i have this problem. its hard to keep perspective.
for cars its 25 years, so were almost to the point where anything <2000 is ‘antique’
i just paid way too much for a refurbed nintendo 64
sneakedit: ancient software
how about this… some guy wrote an entry point for a dll written in 1988 so the other day i could play a bbs door game from that era on a modern pc.
wild.
I also think that would be really cool, keeping the software environment just for curiosity.
Also, I’d lower that threshold for cars some 20 years at least. Most models from the 90s are bum cars, but I hardly see anything from the 70s or older in that state, instead they are very well restored and taken care of.
