Looks nice mumbles. The only issue I'd have is using a sub 16" screen again after getting used to 27"+ monitors in recent years!

I was sorting the attic out recently when I found a receipt from Simply Computers for a computer I purchased from them. The spec was Pentium processor, 1GB hard drive 4mb Matrox Mystique graphics card and a 3 1/2 inch floppy drive. Can't remember how much ram was in there. It cost over £1,100.00. In those days you could go back to game and get a refund if your game would not run. I wanted to play Flight Unlimited because the graphics were so good. :lol:

I can imagine that would be an adjustment!!Up the Junction wrote: ↑Mon Dec 13, 2021 3:55 pm Looks nice mumbles. The only issue I'd have is using a sub 16" screen again after getting used to 27"+ monitors in recent years!
I'm used to gaming on a console so 50 inch TV but sit much closer to the laptop so my eyes seem to cope (ATM anyways)
Enjoying GTA 5 for a 3rd time

A brand spanking new MacBook Pro M1Max with 32GB of RAM. Even when I have to run WIndows inside Parallels, it's still a mighty fine piece of kit.
