    It Was Forty Years Ago When Microsoft Introduced Windows, Joining a New Wave of Graphical User Interface-Based Operating Systems

    Yeah ME was a brutalized 98SE build with all kinds of extra BS and no real upsides. Every ME install I came across got downgraded to 98SE ASAP until 2000 workstation started to be viable. Drivers were still a big problem in the early 2000's and if you wanted games to work, you stuck with 9x...

    It Was Forty Years Ago When Microsoft Introduced Windows, Joining a New Wave of Graphical User Interface-Based Operating Systems

    As others have mentioned, that list is missing a TON. I remember when Windows 1 and 2 were out, I was working at Radio Shack in the late 80's in HS... at that point Deskmate was better (looking anyway). Win 3.1 changed all that even if it still ran on DOS. Hell we were STILL running windows...

    Smoking hot deal! 32gb DDR5 for only $400! /s

    Oh and in the VERY NEXT EMAIL I got from Newegg there is this. Why would anyone just buy the ram? This combo isn't too terrible. https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4848265 And I love that it says "2 item combo" when it is clearly 3 items.

    Microsoft Removes the Ability to Install Windows 11 via a Local Account; Online Accounts Are Now Required to Complete Setup

    I know everyone is different.... but 95TB of media? Are you doing zero compression 4KUHD rips or something? I have a jillion movies, shows, and music and I'm like maybe 10TB

    35% off @ $259.99 Intel Core Ultra 7 Desktop Processor 265K - 20 cores (8 P-cores + 12 E-cores) up to 5.5 GHz

    I'm eyeing a 265KF combo at Microcenter.... $200 less than the 9800x3d bundle. Last several builds have been AM4. And while I have enjoyed the multiple CPU upgrades on AM4 boards..... maybe time to give Intel another shot and save 2 hundy in the process. I know the 9800x3d is the GOAT and all...

    Bazzite? Anyone using it?

    I'll check out TPU. Mostly I have sold on Hardforum but it's not a huge community. I do ebay now and then but I HATE them. I did end up installing bazzite on my ancient potato laptop and it looks pretty cool if all I wanted to do was gaming. Haven't messed with it enough yet to see if it...

    Next PlayStation and Xbox Consoles Are Rumored to Feature AMD UDNA/RNDA 5 Graphics

    Pretty much the same here. PS3/X360 were so much of a drastic improvement over earlier generations it was unreal. Since then.... just generational upticks in resolution, the games seem the same. How many 360's did you go through? I had FIVE (but only purchased 2) due to RROD. Last one was a...

    Next PlayStation and Xbox Consoles Are Rumored to Feature AMD UDNA/RNDA 5 Graphics

    Shocker. Also... I don't think I'm buying a PS6 / Xbox XXX..........my PS5 collects dust and mostly either plays PS4 games or 4KUHD blurays. My PC gets more use, but since I can't seem to get away from Civ V, CPU and GPU seem less important. I don't know why I upgraded from 1080ti to 4070...

    Corsair K70 RGB Pro mechanical keyboard...

    Are you sure there's not at least 1 older/slower USB port on the motherboard, for stuff like mice/keyboards? But moot point anyway if it worked for you no issues.
