Except Geforce 4 MX cards. They will always be cheap and plentiful 😀

You don't find them, they find you 🤣

Or not. If everyone throws them in the dumpster, because nobody wants them now, then they too will become rare, like a good working CRT monitor, that was a little over 3 years ago considered a worthless boat anchor 😊 Ok, I know, a monitor takes up a lot of space 😀

I know of one guy who actually did take a loan for an Apple computer.

Oh well, expect lots of new posts here about AT power connectors plugged in backwards. And many questions about jumpers.

Noob questions from folks that are too lazy to read a manual or perform a 5 second search on this forum 😵

$143.50 with free shipping for a Diamond Stealth 64 DRAM 2MB VLB card. No idea why they said 64MB in the advertisement but any buyer would know better.

So many bids for an incorrectly advertised video card from a seller with a bunch of negative feedback indicating he/she sells incorrectly described / untested things. Wow.

That is absolutely insane....

So glad I got a bunch of stuff within the past two years before prices went sky high.

In the last couple months, stuff has just gotten absolutely insane although I have been able to score some crazy good deals.

I think now it the time for me to contact a place I know that has a bunch of ISA video cards for cheap before they decide to clean house again. Same place I got around 50 ISA sound cards from.
