hmm... I just have my 200mmx machine at home, an identical at my office, a p4/GF6800GT build at the office and my PS1/pro stored... at the office 🤣 I could have another retroPC at home (most likely the p4 build) but due to space constrains I chose to have an Amiga1200 setup...

win95 era? I knew noone with a TNT back then, the majority here had either a CL-544x or a S3 card (50% a trio/vision and 50% a Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 one) or a Matrox Mystique or some other crappy PCI vga 🤣

Great info here, I'll stay away from that Quadra box... Midi switches/through boxes seem to be somewhat obscure, can't say that I found something better than the Quadra on eBay... edit: what about this Taiwanese thing, could it work too? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MidiBox-4X4-USB-MIDI-Interface-Thru- …

^ does the file 5000v107 have any extension? it needs one, do a DIR and write the complete filename in the box. Alternatively rename it to "update.bin" and type that in the file box...
