The last paragraph is the true tech relic :shobon:

I was going through my MOD music collection and it did strike me as interesting that many of the ones from the 90s include the composer's full street address and phone number in the track info.

Funny enough one of them was just down the street from the venue of the first big LAN party I ever attended. Small world and all that.

On a related note I think the SID on my C64 has kicked the bucket. As a total purist none of the modern clones will suffice, so I'm going to have to roll the dice getting a used one from Eastern Europe.

What do you even play on a G3 mac? Quake and that’s it?

My bad I forgot how many actual mac ports there actually were. You’d definitely be buying all your own games then.

I wasn’t at this particular party but something about this picture just gives me pangs of nostalgia, it really captures a vibe I never experienced before or since.
