    Great show! I've been needing something new to watch for a while now and this hits the spot. I'm surprised the IBM 5150 does support 3.5" floppies. I must keep that in mind should I ever add one to my collection.

    Just watched the episode on the 5150 a buddy of mines mom worked In a research lab at a hospital and always brought home the newest computer tech. I remember playing some games like spy hunter and star gate on it.

    Talking about a few mods I've done over the last few weeks.



    Yes, I missed number 22. I had the previous update mis-labelled at Ep 22 in Final Cut. :(

    Nice video, but why does on the modded saturn the screen flickers with 60hz but not 50hz?

    The camera films at 50Hz, so when the system's in 50Hz mode, the camera and system are nearly synced.

    That's what I thought :p
    But in real life though, I cannot stand 50hz, its too flickery.
    Hell, even 60hz is borderline.

    Ill be damned I do not know how you guys manage to deal with 50hz.
