A computer is would be a good find in those days. Did you have to do much to get it running?
PSU and RAM had to be replaced. Garbage picked those too.
Starting my fourth decade on this rock. Distressingly pale... My boys are into trying to fix and upgrade the consoles & PC's they've grown up with, plus a couple old PowerPC G4 & G5 Macs I snatched up a few years ago, so we'll see where that goes.
@CanadaPlus I'm 54. If you're into the generation markers, I'm a Gen X. We don't get your generation's jokes and we're totally comfortable with that.
Another gen-z dude here 🙋🏼♂️
Nice! Did you experience the CD era at all, or were you straight into MP3s?
More like both, i always had a little cd collection, but it was mostly self-burned from mp3s my dad bought off iTunes. I also had a early-ish mp3 player at some point.
I remember when my own little Zoomer was born, so I can't help ya here.

I was born in 1991. I do not know what that makes me... half dead maybe.😹
Millennial, I'm pretty sure.
