Is that good or bad? Are you going to sell it on ebay for $470 profit?
Not that guy but don't play games at all these days. I just have a box of old games and software in my closet that I say I'll have a look at any day now and never do. Are there any software tools that play the games automatically so I can have a picture frame type device that displays them?

Probably some website that does exactly that. However I wouldn't know the specifics.
Half the fun for me is using the hardware. Honestly with out the hardware I probably wouldn't give two shits about most of these games.
I spent a good chunk of time hunting down a very specific sound card that was never sold in stores or any retail market. Only specific prebuilts from IBM. Not sure if any manufacture even got any. I found one of these 486 multi media desktops from IBM, ended up getting the entire system for about a hundred dollars. Got the system in the mail. Booted it up, nabbed the drivers from the immediately failing hard drive. Slapped a Compact Flash solution into it. F'n Shit Works. Hearing Sounds from a card that barely exists. Made by a PC Gaming legend.
you got scammed
voodoo 3 3000 pci sells for 500 dollars on ebay

>he fell for the old hardware meme
I'll admit, it's been funny seeing this meme rise and get to this point
A sucker born every minute lol
We get it. You play games on software emulators.

Good shit, anon.
which card?
Prometheus
Never heard of it. Why is it special?
It's special because of who made it. And it was never sold in any retail market. Only OEM and very limited at that.
Good deal.

How the frick can people charge almost time-period MSRP for retro PC hardware nowadays? Is there that many people wanting to relive the DOS days?
I'm surprised some of this stuff isn't priced higher. The days of finding this stuff cheap in the wild are nearly over.
the 10-15 people who actually want this junk will pay any price
>junk
Sorry I don't game on a SBC.
