Guys, The 1st. Gen. Pentium is the King of CPUs.
It came in like a Wreaking ball and Obliterated the competition.
Putting many computer companies Out of Business.

With its High production manufacturing and Low retail cost.

It dominated the computer market with-in a few years.

Paired with Windows-NT, Win-95, Novell, UNIX and Linux
The 1st. Gen. Pentium CPU was a Processor for Everyone.
Businesses, Servers, and Home computers.

I built this computer in reference to the 1st. Gen. Pentium

I don’t think NO other CPU made such a Difference and Dominated the
Computer market like the 1st. Gen. Pentium.

I call it the “King” and put in it a Voodoo-3-3000 Evil King video card.

I used the Pentium-90 because of the Classic Gold cap. But I think the Pentium 100 thru 200 was most popular and made the most impact on the computer market before Win-98

The Pentium-90 is the minimum requirements for the Voodoo-3-3000

He seems to take pictures of his own hardware though. Is that within the capabilities of a bot?

These requirements are strange. Quicktime and Quickdraw. These are for a frickin Macintosh. And there were PCI cards with TV-out.

I am aroused about any X86 motherboard that has full functional ISA slot. I think i have problem. Not really into that original (Turbo) XT,286,386 and CGA/EGA stuff. So just a DOS nut.
PS. If I upload RAR, it is a 16-bit DOS RAR Version 2.50.

Yes it is, and we have no idea if its their own hardware or just pictures from an archive.

Could a bot rack up over 4,000 comments without being noticed by anyone here until now?

Depends on how good that bot is at being human, Ive seen some pretty well programmed bots that fool 90% of the people interacting with them.

I tried a few of them in reverse Google image search and nothing showed up. Am I wrong in assuming that a bot would just scrape them off the Internet?

Google reverse search isnt perfect either, unless the image is exactly the same as the one it has then it can miss a detection. Im thinking its likely from an archive of images not from google.

Then again it could be a human that is triggering out bot sense, OP doesn't reply to comments very much having seen their other threads.
