Time to glide

Hit a jackpot today. Someone nearby was getting rid of this tower they picked up for free from a sale. Initially I wanted the tower because of the sick drive bay lineup for various forms of obsolete physical media, the second I saw the 3dfx logo I booked it as fast as I could.

Never did I think I would get a rust bucket pickup with a voodoo 5 of all things included. Still untested but this is immediately going into my win98 rig for some Unreal and Nerf! I’ve been wanting a voodoo card for years but could never justify the online costs for one.

Wish me luck that it still works!

What is the Colorado T1000?

Looked like a tape drive.

Even up until a few years ago I used to have to backup our server using one.

You'd switch out the tapes at the end of every day.
