Can you tell I'm a fan of these models? Despite all their quirks and diva behaviour

I want big orange power switches to make a comeback. The kind that make a solid clunk when you flip them.

Such a great design language during that era at IBM.

It doesn't even run destroy all humans! Incase you were being serious these are Personal System 2s otherwise known as the PS/2..fun fact this range of computers is where the ps/2 connector started

Ooh yeah I know of the connector but didn't know they came from these haha

Man these were so cool when they were in the stores. Do you run OS/2 on them?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Unfortunately due to the 720kb drives and the meager specs I couldn't get os/2 to install and run. Got pc dos on these and os/2 on the 57sx
