proggR Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I've been thinking about my first computer and the nostalgia is making me want it again. Its pretty bad (a Hewlett-Packard Vectra 386/25N) but it was fun in its time. Does anyone know any places I may be able to find one? I checked eBay and didn't find anything and then Googled it with "buy" after the name but haven't hit any sites actually selling it. If anyone knows that'd be great. Thanks in advance.

What the hell would you do with one anyway, run MSDOS.

Thanks I'll keep looking through there. I bought an old laptop off a friend for $30, It ran 3.11 and had 16Mbs of hard disk. Had no battery capacity but I sure as hell loved running DOS games on it. Looked so vintage. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/197739-where-to-find-old-computers-other-than-ebay/#findComment-1038081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
