Some have built portable setups with an Indy and an Indy presenter. I remember 25 years ago someone showing off with such a custom portable configuration, with an Indy motherboard and PSU, a keyboard and track ball and an Indy presenter cra

Legendary drum machines fall mostly in two categories : analog ones such as the Roland TR808 (and also electronic drums such as the Simmons SDS5), and early digital ones such as the LinnDrum and the Oberheim DMX, which use low bit samples (

I currently support many NAS servers in the 50TB - 2PB range, many of them being 10, 12, and up to 15 years old for some of them. Most of them still run with their original power supplies, motherboard and most of their original (HGST -- now

I have restored a few hundreds LTO-1 and 2 tapes using an LTO-3 drive a few years ago. If you keep the drives around and run Linux (which supports obsolete hardware better), keeping LTO tapes 10, 15, 20 years is not a problem at all. A few
