@@sudocatsda1guy390 i think you could run Doom with 4 meg of ram but if i remember rightly you needed a boot up disk that started straight into Dos to save memory and then type in the doom exe file to start the game. With 8 meg of memory there wasn't a problem which by the way, it cost me $300 for 4 meg of ram to upgrade my new pc to 8 meg of ram back in the early 90's. I think i had a DX40 with a 2 meg video card and very small hard drive, mouse , keyboard and a 14 inch vga monitor which cost me around $1,400 brand new. How things have changed. :)

@@dits791 first Doom I think never needed more than 8mb. Doom 2 ran Dos native (I had my first Windows operating system in 2003, so Dos native all I knew) with 4mb, but not well. You couldn't finish the game because last two levels caused two much lag. Also the got way too slow in other parts if too many enemies were on screen. I always had flu pump* computers which I used for gaming. Trying to run games was half the fun. The other half was playing Xcom. It did run Quake and GTA on 33mh 486DX with 12mb ram and graphics card meant for text editing. Quake shareware ran decently, of slow. Full version was unplayable * Flu pump is a slang term used in finnish referring to low power gaming computer.

Loving these new vintage laptop videos. Being a vintage tech collector, I have a very similar model, a ThinkPad 380ED, only mine is from 96-97 and has a Pentium MMX in it. Runs MS-DOS 6.22 and Win95 like a charm and fortunately doesn’t have one of those horrendous passive-matrix displays, but an early color liquid crystal display.

A good video once again on these old laptops you've been doing, and turns out i also saw the listing for this very one sometime ago, knew i had from the title of the listing it have "laptop 18" within it, and have bought a few laptops from that seller as well for a cheap price, a couple of nec versas, a 4080H & a 2780MT, also a compaq armada 1590dt too. Didn't think i'd end up seeing one of them from that seller in a youtube video, but there you & here it is, and nice to see you got this thinkpad working again.

Did you have much luck with those laptops? I was tempted to buy more but the postage price was quite a bit to me. Thankfully they listed that IBM I bought as a 380Cs, which doesn't exist. It's actually a 360Cs, which is why no one really bid on it I'd say
@huleeyaxerssius7
@huleeyaxerssius7 5 жыл бұрын
Have yet to receive them, so when they end up arriving, then i'll know for sure. And the postage of where they came from was a bit, but as they were a cheaper price for the laptops themselves, kind of worked out that way too. And had noticed that slight error in the listing too, also what i had thought as to why no-one else went for it. Those compaqs such as the ones i got go for a bit more money nowdays, so if this one is all good & working, would have been a decent deal for what i got it for.

I got the 3 laptops on monday, gave them a good clean like you have with this & the others, always is a good idea to give used laptops a clean like that too, and have set them up since then. the versa 4080H has MS-DOS 6.22 & WfW 3.11 on it now, and the armada 1590DT with windows 95 B as i have a few windows 98 laptops already, and is a good 95 machine too. And with those apple laptops, i saw they went for some higher prices, they tend to bring in higher prices because we know how many apple products go for higher prices, even older ones that might not even work like that 1400cs.

My first laptop, which wasn't new at the time, but not SUPER old either... was an IBM Thinkpad 360PE, with pen input flip around screen. Similarly the kbd came up to allow access to the innards, drives, battery, etc. It shipped with win 3.1, but I managed a 95c install... Used that puppy with Aol Instant Messenger, web browsing, downloading games and demos online from Game Revolution and FTP servers. Loved it... of course didn't think it would ever be worth anything as time was moving ahead, and it too was a 486, a DX2 if I recall... Just barely allowed for Win95. So I left it behind somewhere, not concerned.... just literally leaving it in an old house, or storage, or a box somewhere. just gone. And it had everything, the IBM external FDD, internal, battery, spare, dock, pen... and worked perfect. Today on eBay seeing this sort of complete set with such a rare and nearly un findable model, well.... its sad... say that much.

Typically if they have two controls (brightness and contrast) it'll be a passive matrix display, which oft have ghosting and slow refresh. If it just has a brightness control then it's likely a nicer active matrix display.

Nice ! For some reason I have a Toshiba laptop about the same size as your IBM. However my Toshiba is much newer while sporting a Classic Pentium CPU and I think 8MB ram. It MIRACULOUSLY still works with it's OS, the worst of the worst, Windows ME. I installed Warcraft2 on it for the pleasure of good old nostalgia. Warcraft2 also informed me "YOUR SOUND CARD WORKS PERFECTLY", and yes I was enjoying myself. It also has an external 10Mbit NIC that slides in as a card I think...

I think they're powerful and classic. The CPU is so good even the ram is 8gb which is nice to take some parts to upgrade your old laptop instead though.

Because you like wasting money. I'm not even saying these machines aren't worth it but you don't need more than 2. One modern and one T60/X60 is all you need. Or just one if you get a 51nb modded T/X series.

As the Thinkpad reached a new level of WOW recently ? Thats what it feels like. So just seen another new video of a Thinkpad and I also picked up a T43P Thinkpad last Sunday at a car boot sale for 5 euros. Lovely machines.

I did something similar with a little Dell Latitude 2100 which was previously a student laptop (pre-Chromebook). Obviously not as dramatic a restoration as this video but for $60 it turned out to be a pretty sweet little project. I wiped it and installed Linux Mint. Sweet little laptop for my 6yo daughter to start learning on.

Neat! I still have the first computer I ever used - a 2006 Inspiron E1505 (Intel T2300 1.66 GHz Core Duo, upgraded to 2GB ram, 80 GB HDD). I hope and plan to keep it and upgrade it further, including new LCD panel, speakers, SSD, and maxing RAM with a 4GB 2x2 kit (chipset may only supports 3.20 or thereabout).
