Let's put way too much effort into saving an enormously mediocre computer from the year 2000!

It looks it followed the iMac trend from the era to add blue, usually transparent, plastic in untasteful ways. Can it become a hackintosh?

It probably can't run any sort of Intel Mac OS (they all require x64, right?) but with a little more RAM it can probably run Basilisk II just fine and give you that turbocharged 68k Mac experience.

Man ... the specs and the timeframe on this thing make me think that maybe it's time for you to hit up Pouet.net and do a video about the late 90s demoscene. People were pulling off some incredible stuff back then in DOS without the use of a 3D accelerator card. Lots of love for 303 by Acme, Nature Suxx by Federation Against Nature and Astral Blur by The Black Lotus. I used to watch them over and over again just to see the cool stuff my computer could do.

Yesss!! Wow what horrible low-end specs... I love it! Hmm, did the BlueLight ISP disc install any branded browsers? They may be hidden in an application directory somewhere.

Anyone else have trouble with the first minute or so of video? For me it broke up badly but then was fine. I tried different browsers and rebooted. No network issues that I can find, and it was always in the first minute or so until the "Action Retro" opening. As for the PC itself - I don't remember it or "BlueLight.com" as an ISP. But by 2000 I think the closest Kmart to me was a bit of a ways away, so I didn't go there much.

For me, I see a little bit of distortion about a minute in. I wonder if it’s on Patreons side

Looks like it could make a perfect MUD/MUCK/MUSH/MU* server where everybody could log in to resurrect, build and explore the perfect K-Mart experience!

YOu totally gotta see if you can update the processor and just find a version of linux or BSD to install on it to keep it going! or make it dual boot. Or do Windows 2000 professional.

Try to install syllable desktop on this thing. Found this site called archiveos, it has tons of obscure OS’s for hours of fun.

Ive got one of these!!!! My front panel wasnt cracked, but the led and reset mount needed to be epoxied. When I found mine in an attic at my gf childhood home, the PSU was dead, the mobo needed recapped. I dropped a Voodoo Banshee 16mg pci, and a TDK translucent blue CD-RW in it. With 128mb of ram it runs games pretty nicely! I might have a copy of the OEM drive floating around, I think I made a backup.

1) Awesome video! Great ska band name, too. 2) As others had reported, I got distortion during the first six seconds of the video ("...from the year [redacted by glitch]") and video melt for the next few seconds. 3) Hear me out: this needs to be a Dettuxx box. I can't think of a better challenge for this azure pup. I'm one of the few weirdos that remembers Dettuxx, "probably the world's nastiest Linux-distribution" (http://www.dettus.net/dettuxx/). Back around 2k a kid in Denmark made eight floppy images and hosted them at home with a few pages of text. You'd download the image files, write them to 3.5" floppies, and follow such stellar install instructions as "wait until your harddrive gets quiet". It'd be more fun if you can find two stick of PC-133 256 MB RAM and a 1 GHz P3 Coppermine to max out the freshness. You still don't need to do that to have this fun.

You forgot to update your patreon supporters list. I didn't see myself under Wild Eep. Side note, I never got my stickers for signing up as a Wild Eep member...
