New video! So here's something I've been wanting to do for a while! Today we're gonna try and mod a Nintendo GameCube to install Windows NT. This is my first (of hopefully many) GameCube homebrew experiments!

New video! So a viewer recently sent me a link to this Android tablet that appears to be from Compaq. Yeah that's right, the influential company from the early days of the personal computer is now making modern consumer tech. At least, that's what it might seem like at first...

New video! Today we're checking out a Linux distro created by a group of Windows bootleggers from the mid-2000s! So maybe not surprisingly, it looks a lot like Windows XP... at least at first.

New video! Everyone's got something to say about the MacBook Neo. And I had to see what all the fuss was about. So I bought one. Then I decided to put Windows on it for some reason! This should be fun...

New video! Back in late 2010, Dell released their answer to the iPad: a 2-in-1 laptop running Windows 7 with a flippable screen. While it seemed like a cool machine at first, a closer look reveals that it's pretty much just a netbook with some tablet features thrown in.

New video! Yep... I've got another tablet to talk about today. This time, it's BlackBerry's PlayBook from 2011. What was supposed to be an answer to the iPad ended up being a complete failure. So today we're gonna discuss its fate, and see if it was really a bad product.

New video! Today we're exploring an old version of Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac. Back before Apple's transition to Intel processors, this program provided a convenient way to emulate an x86 system for running Windows-only software. But was it any good? Let's find out!

New video! So how bad can a cheap Android tablet from 2010 be? Well, today we're gonna find out! This thing sold for a fraction of the cost of a first gen iPad, and predates the release of Android 3.0 Honeycomb. So this should be fun...

New video! Here's a bit of a retro tech oddity. This prototype tablet PC was developed by Intel back in 2006, and was an engineering sample for the Ultra-Mobile PC standard. Which makes this one of the earliest UMPCs around!

Does anyone recognize this connector? I’m thinking it’s VHDCI (perhaps for a SCSI drive?) but not sure.

New video! So here's something you don't see everyday: an Android tablet made for use in prisons. And like a lot of prison tech, it's made with clear plastic and comes with a lot of limitations.

Merry Christmas Eve! Usually there’d be a holiday themed video going out tomorrow, but unfortunately I’ve been sick the past few days. I’ve mostly recovered now so I’m planning on getting it out next week (hopefully before new years!)

New video! With Windows 10 support ended, there's plenty of people rethinking what OS they want to use moving forward. And for those looking to switch to Linux, Zorin OS provides a similar UI to what you're already used to. But is it the best Windows replacement out there?
