We've had too much time to adapt with every new set of technology that asking us now would be useless, you'd have to ask us in 1992. We'd be blown away by the look of it, the speed, the quality, but at the same time we would ease into it and adapt rather quickly, compared to someone from the 60s or 1800s using it! xD Our toys were rather advanced in the 90s, so I think the reaction would be the same as when the iPod came to be.

Samsung revisited the pen tablet concept too! Alot of their relatively newer upper-mid to high end tablets host the same wacom-based technology their pen phones have. While watching this on my galaxy tab which came with an s-pen and has the technology I have noticed some elements of the pen master seem to have carried into Samsung current day offerings too, particularly the pen, which the larger spen which comes with their tablets seem to take inspiration from having a similar yet more rounded(?) form factor and keeping the button on the top.

Long time viewer, first time commenter here. I just wanted to say you're a pretty good guy and all that, but lets not get too mushy about it alright? Not sure what made this video the first one I've posted on after watching ... hundreds(?) and saying nothing. But then again I''m not sure why anyone would bother with making a video of a 20 year old "tablet" either., yet it's exactly what I wanted to watch even if I had no idea about it 20min ago and it made my day, so lets just leave it at that shall we? But yeah... you make the KZbins, and in a bigger picture, the world, a better place by sharing your enthusiasm and love of wierd old tech with the rest of us. Keep up the good work and all that, just don't let this get to your head! That's pretty much it I guess, expect another post in another couple of years or so as long as you keep it up. Well honestly, I'd mostly likely keep watching wether you keep it up or not, so there's that, but as long as you love keep showing me stuff I had no idea i'd love, it's all I ask for.

Sounds like you gotta run SpinRite on the old drive. Having the vintage hardware that you've got, it's a must-have, and well worth it for even maintaining modern SSDs. There's a good chance it'll bring the old drive back long enough to copy everything across.
