What retro things have you done today?

I have this very ugly but immaculate P4 system.
The system builder logo on the front is really on there, I'm not sure how it has been printed.
Any ideas of what I could try to remove it without destroying the plastic?


Obviously if its dye-sub then there is no getting it off, but we'll see... I haven't tried much, just IPA and a magic eraser, when that did absolutely nothing I left it and put it in the loft. :p

"Centerprise Systems Ltd" doesn't appear to be trading, maybe set up the company, problem solved with many +++++ kudos points as company owner :D

Dammit! Do we think XFX would honour the Alpha Dog dual lifetime warranty still?

AGP 6800GT, PCIE 7800GTX, 8800GT, 8800GTS (Wendel special), 9800GTX+, 2x8800 GTX

Yes!! that top left one is the one I had!!
Lovely set of cards there, I completely forgot about the Fatality edition cards, I nearly purchased a 8600gt from that range back in the day and I definitely dodged a bullet there!
I picked up an overclocking beast of a 7900gs instead for a fraction of the price.

Only one way to find out!

Most likely find they class you as a village god for your love of the brand.

I have a 7600gt fatality that is knackered, would love to have it working again.

Have 2 boxed AGP cards 7800gt and 7600gt, both in non-x shape boxes sadly
 
I managed to pick up a boxed, genuine working NES Classic Mini for £65. Perfect condition, works great. Good times.

Some people charging £180 for them, presumably 90% of them are knockoffs.

Just put up the 80's style Christmas Tree, with most of the top shelf being new(ish) games, and I have Cadaver and a couple of SSI gold boxes on the way :)

I've had a few people come over such as neighbours or just general house repair and they say " wow that's some collection I remember playing X game "

Tends to be either Amiga or Sega Mega Drive that brings back the nostalgia for people :D
 
My young son who is very into retro hardware and has over his last few xmas/birthdays been completing his game boy collection has his sights on sega hardware now. So one game gear for xmas and the hunt for a reasonable nomad for the birthday begins.
