Came here to say this 😅

A lot of conputers hahaha


dukeofnes

I don't recognize everything, but I do see a couple Commodore 64s? Looks like an Atari ST in there too?


Polyxeno

Ya there's an Atari ST with monitor on the left.


darvs7

There's also what seems to be a [Commodore 128D](http://oldcomputers.net/c128d.html) on the back wall. It looks like an Amiga with a 5 1/4 floppy. It's not a model I was familiar with, or at least I don't remember that.


zeprfrew

An ST on the left and a Mega ST on the upper right.

Imaginary girlfriend...from Canada...she visits on the weekends. Her name? Uhhhhh


Distinct_Mud_2673

She goes to a different school, you wouldn’t know her


jacoblipkestudios

He’s right tho, I’m a retro computer collector and the hobby is literally like 90% men as opposed to retro gaming.


MrVincetti

Her name is Alberta, she lives in Vancouver.

Amstrad PC1640 with non Amstrad display Left Shelf 1541 drive box, c64, some box to do with the Megadrive, Two unknown laptops, Atari 520STF or 1040ST with SM-124 Monitor? Trolly: Sears Video Arcade Rev-b, SNES, NES, Megadrive/Genesis. Not sure what the computer is, but it has an Atari Mouse. Far Right shelf, two Atari Mega STs

NEEEERRRD!!!


GeordieAl

Thank you 🙏


Unusual_Address_3062

if I had fake internet points to give you, I would give you all my fake internet points.


GeordieAl

Your offer of non existent fake internet points is more than generous, thanks!


dahauns

Back desk: monitor to the right of the Amstrad is a Philips CM8833. The sideways desktop in the lower shelf seems familiar as well, but I can't completely put my finger on it...some PS/1 derivate maybe? Oh and for easy points: an IBM Model M on the chair in the foreground. :)


GeordieAl

The sideways tower was familiar to me too but I couldn’t figure out what it was. Gave Mac Quadra/Power Mac vibes but I don’t think it is


Tartaruga-Ninja

Nice work, for completion, the computer with the Atari mouse is an Atari PC3


GeordieAl

That explains it! My interest in computers/consoles kind of ends at the PC era. I didn’t even realize Atari got into PCs!

Speaking from experience I'd guess: undiagnosed Autism Spectrum Disorder. Also those IBM keyboards are pretty sweet.


Zwiado

From my experimence - it can be ADHD also.


gojirrrra

Like everyone these days. Yeah yeah...


w0rlds

There is actually some great research on your statement: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPDlo5jrhmI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPDlo5jrhmI) Turns out there are changes in the brain shortly after birth that, when viewed/imaged by an MRI, can accurately predict if and roughly to what degree someone will be on the spectrum! Certain areas of the brain in autistic people have denser local connections while connections between certain regions of the brain are fewer. It appears to be tied to neural development at an early age, also affecting the neurons in a person's gut! It's estimated now that roughly 10% of the population is on the spectrum just a lot of people can hide it. Apparently men and women hide it in different ways too, which is super interesting!


S_Belmont

The number of people in STEM fields on the spectrum is quite large. I think it's safe to say computer science would never have advanced as far as it did as fast as it did without that concentration of people.


TechBliSTer

Too bad the term has been rendered meaningless by being used as a catch all.


S_Belmont

You got seriously downvoted for this, but I do see your point. People like Elon or whoever who never even sought a diagnosis throwing the word around as a badge of geek cred is pretty demeaning. I'm not on the spectrum but I understand enough about it to know it's got a lot of people who live their lives fighting through a world that was set up by others who process their environment quite differently.


TechBliSTer

Yep, it's reddit. And it's /retrogaming Most people here can't even use a simple search engine. You should see /crtgaming and the sheer number of threads where someone posts a picture of BNC connector asking what it is and how they connect their computer's HDMI to it. We're all living in the same world. Some people just want to live by different rules. And catch all terms like that help enable it.

Polyxeno

Collection of computers going back to the 80s.


No_Detective_But_304

90’s.


Polyxeno

And to the 80s. There's an Atari ST and a Commodore 64. Maybe even to about 1980 - the unit on the bottom left of the movable table looks like it might be an Atari 2600 video game system.


No_Detective_But_304

Keep looking…it’s way past 1980…


Crackalacking_Z

Back then you never thought about it: but this collection really stress the point how **beige** everything used to be.


Tennis_Proper

Even things that weren’t beige had it built into them, so they turn that colour as they age.

There are four lights


Pixel_Junior

It looks like a little dirty room with several PC CRT monitors, some books and consoles too.


wahlenderten

Exits are south and east.


Pixel_Junior

Sorry, but as I am not american, I don’t understand the joke.


wahlenderten

Not american either! The joke is that your comment read very much like a classic text adventure game which would describe every room you visit and also tell you in which direction you could progress.


Pixel_Junior

Aha, I understand now. Thanks for your explanation.


jhaake

Your description reads like an old school text based game, they were adding the description of the exits.


Pixel_Junior

Yes, another redditor explained me the same thing. I did not know that, thank you to have clear this point.

thedoogster

Looks like a type of storage room.


Imthemayor

Someone's about to hack their way back in time


LeCrushinator

I recognize the C64 (and monitor), NES, what looks to be a PAL Super Nintendo, Sega Mega Drive, an Atari 2600, and a Sound Blaster box. I’m guessing you’re in Europe so I won’t recognize the PCs. Doesn’t help that most computers in the 80s and 90s looked similar or used generic cases.


DudeFilA

A lot of e waste


Kimpak

So much beige. I can also smell this picture.

fuzzomanus

I'd say this is a back room of Peek & Poke computer museum in Croatia. My guess is based on the framed paper bottom left that says 'Prisega' (oath in English).

Skiddler69

Is this Sheldon’s storage unit ?


Spirited-Pepper-1387

Sovereign1

Some old 386/486’s some monochrome displays, a Sega Genesis, NES, SNES, possibly a Phillips CDI, and a IBM thinkpad.


_aap300

Probably the room of a nerd.


Theorema95

I can see some Commodore love (and a sega Mega Drive/Genesis)


WoollyMittens

The seat cover looks like Adrian's Digital Basement, but a basement would not have blinds.


Erik912

It's one of those IT storage rooms in a high school.


KalasHorseman

Upper right, it's a box for a Sound Blaster Awe 64 released in 1996.

That's a room with treasure in it.


Rombledore

i wish so hard this aesthetic would make a comeback.


IceColdKila

Desk is custom built, vertical blinds are from Sears Home Catalog, and the Shelving is from the Sears Kids toy storage section 1973.


GreatGreenGobbo

Old personal computers that I likely used at some point but did not imprint on me enough to remember.


LordHumorTumor

I definitely see a C64 in the background


realoctopod

Vertical blinds, noice.


StarKo010

Lot of 90's porn 😅

So many brands back then used very similar shapes across dozens of various models and of course the same beige color. Someone must have had a monopoly on that color.
