Here are 4 out of the 18 retro computers in my retro room. Going to provide pictures of the rest of the room and everything else with an upcoming System Specs post. Nothing better than walking in here on the weekend, cranking up some OMF on the Gravis and tinkering around / playing games.

Hello, I've just moved into a new place so here is my setup at the moment:

Very nice collection of big box games! Also: jelly of the trinitron 😀

444 consoles to one TV 😀
watch and learn 😉

My room & desk at night.

My room & desk at night.

Cool. And coming to think of it, I don't think I have ever seen a right aligned modern (or any) desktop system before. Thanks for sharing!

Saturday night

Keywords: VLB amDX2-80, DOS AWE player AMP 3.0, SB32 EMU8000 (8MB ram) SPDIF, Topping DX3PRO+ DAC, Creative Inspire T7900, VFD Spectrum analyzer, Rigol MSO5354 (for more bling)

Bonus points for those who can spot supplemental 5cl Martell VS for smoothing out evening...

No fancy lights or posters I’m afraid folks, just me trying to fit too many PCs under a desk.

486 DOS 6.22
Pentium Win95
P II 98SE
P III W2k
P4 XP

Sony multiscan 200ES
Belkin Omniview Pro KVM

…and a 2013 iMac I guess.

(I know it’s really basic having the “LGR speakers” but I swear I had them long before I knew what that was!)

Today's pictures of my retro living room

Today it's like this. The two cases under the desk are my normal work area, the desk with the boxes and test bench is my computing build/test area.

No beige cases here at the moment... and tha Aerocool case was great until almost every damn bit of it went sticky (rubberised surface coating), now I hate to have to touch it even...

Since no one answered you, it's an Open Source Scan Converter (OSSC). I used one for a bit to hook my Pentium 90 system up to my home theatre:

That computer is now back earning its keep as a monitor stand:

Can I ask the model of white case?

Hey man who cares about this stuff, they are awesome speakers from an iconic retro brand, period correct, sound great, shielded, and just the right shade of beige to fit the aesthetics 😁 they look awesome in your setup! (and yes, I of course also own a pair and love em 😀 )

It's a good question and yes I do have feet. I Pulled the desk forward about 50cm after taking the photo, it's as good as I can do for legroom at the moment.

Thank you, you're right and I do love 'em. I'm using a TC Level Pilot C (just left of the keyboard) to control the input level because I'm too lazy to try matching both sides all the time,

That looks legit. I really like it, if I'd set up my place like that it may be possible to comply with the waf of my wife 😉

I'm 100% certain that I would no longer have a wife if I did that in our house.

But a peaceful life and a will of your own.

I do miss those days for sure... But married life does come with benefits. Otherwise nobody would do it... 😀
