Crazy is if you tried to install Windows 10 on it :)

:lol: I saw it on LGR after I'd bought this Floppy Disk Module and it works perfectly. :lol:

I always laugh when I do the PC cleanup and it discards more than my Atari's RAM in junk. :lol:

This is all very well, but does it play Doom?
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

It's a pentium 166mhz so it should do.

Quake anyone?
