This one's been a long time coming! For years I've been curious about the Diamond Trackstar series of cards from the 80s. And after a couple of pricey purchases and some items courteously on loan for this video, w...

Well this was inevitable! As soon as I saw these funky things online about a month ago I had to grab them. And of course, countless requests to cover them ensued as word spread around social media, tech news, enthusiast groups and so on. I kno...

The name's Bond, J. Bond.
Got a simpler video this week! Taking a look at this J. Bond 386 PC, a system that I bought years ago for a whopping 99 cents. I never did make the video I planned to back then but in hindsight I'm glad...

Fresh Oddware! And it’s another unusual 5.25” drive bay thing because these things are seemingly endless. This one in particular has been on my want-to-review list for years and I’m stoked to finally get to it.
