The foam insulation stuff in bags is a packing service offered by lots of shipping/packing stores. You wrap the empty plastic bag around the fragile item and then insert a hose, it fills the bag as a viscous foam that ideally forms around the item to ensure safety. Great for CRTs for obvious reasons. Kind of works like that orange spray foam in a can stuff, where it cures and firms up fairly quickly after spraying it into the bag.

You can get pre-filled ones where you pop a couple of bubbles filled with the foam and an activator. They use those for shipping prebuilt gaming PCs with heavy graphics cards and CPU coolers.

FYI those Thinkjet batteries are not sealed lead-acid and they will leak. That pack contains 6 cell batteries (I believe they might be NiCad) and the circuitry to recharge them, so opening it up and checking it would be a good idea. Mine had leaked but no damage had been done yet, thankfully.

The HP 5035T was something I used back in 2001-2002 while I was at the local community college taking electronics repair. It absolutely can be used as a teaching tool, and my professor used it quite a lot. I'm sure a hobbyist or even a professional could make some kind of use of it, but it just makes more sense to me as a teaching tool.

Hi Shelby, it's Kevin. Just a couple of things about the X9DRH I sent you: 1. For the v2 Xeon's you need BIOS v3.00 or newer (motherboard should have it due to being manufactured in 2018). 2. So if you install the v2's and you get a blank screen, you will need to install the Sandy Bridge Xeon's you have and flash the to latest BIOS. 3. I ordered a couple of Supermicro Heatsinks from eBay shipped directly to you. Part# SNK-P0050AP4. These come with the narrow ILMs and are the correct heatsinks for this motherboard. 4. I believe this motherboard is either new or openbox, so it hasn't been tested yet. Thanks!

@KittyKatKya
@KittyKatKya Месяц назад
@@LagrangePoint0 Regardless of whether you mean the 2690 Shelby already had or the 2690 v2s sent in this video, you/someone would be FAR better served by even mid-lower end consumer grade CPUs from the several generations from Intel or AMD. Even today, games are rarely going to be making use of more than a few cores at any given time so the multitude of extra cores (8c16t for the "v1", 10c20t for v2) will go mostly unused. Even ignoring that, the architecture these are built on (Sandy and Ivy Bridge respectively) is 12+ years old at this point and are going to have horrid IPC (how much they can do in terms of "doing work"/intelligently or efficiently doing work) versus current offerings, as well as not being able to clock super high and while sucking back loads of power to do so. Aside from having the bits laying around and geeeenerally not caring about how much power you're burning, even for the sorts of tasks these would have been used for when they were still current, keeping them in service for actual day to day usage is really hard to justify; At least aside from the always present "I just think they're neat" factor. I say this as someone typing on a 3770k (consumer Ivy) system, with a dual 2667v2 workstation to toy around with in the attic.

Those Boston speakers sound really good for there size. I currently have a set of BA735 setup on my spare computer that I use for emulation. These are basically the digital only version of these speakers which use a coaxial digital input. Where as the BA745 are analogue and have two inputs on the speakers. One 3.5mm green for connection to speaker output on PC and one 3.5mm pink input for microphone passthrough to PC.

Micro fiche is a technology that should continue to be used. The Fiches last, can be read without much tech (a jewelers loup and a backlight will work, i think.) We have a lot of modern data, but it's stored on media that just doesn't last, or if it does have a reasonable lifespan for the storage media, requires machines to read with are HARD to make. I'm thinking CDR's, they actually hold up pretty well if stored properly. But optical media devices are just not really being made anymore. I've got a bunch, but they will eventually fail, and when they do all the CDR's i have will be useless.

My guess - it's a desk calculator made for a Commodore sales agent, dealer or somebody similar for semi-permanent desk installation.
