But can it run Crysis?
(Sorry, couldn't resist)

That title hints at there being an older rebuilt computer that DOES run Windows 7, something I find a greater feat.
Neonpunk? (Steampunk also has great uses for valves)

i love these super old, retro "computers".
i hope they'll bring this monster back to life once again ^^
and p0rn on tapes that this machine will print? sounds like fun to me xD

you'd probably be able to do pornographic ascii art line by line and then paste them all together to form a picture
The sad thing is that I reckon it'd been done at least once.

Swheet machine. A little piece of trivia for everyone, my grandmother worked at Bletchley Park as a decoder. We were really surprised when back in the 90's she suddenly started telling us about it as it became declassified. To hear it all first hand was so very interesting, and something I'll never forget.

Now thats pretty awesome. Did anyone play her in that enigma movie?

Oh, ASCII porn has been done aplenty. LOL I don't know about ticker tape porn though. After all, ASCII was a distant technological dream when that beast was first built.

All the greatest technological innovations stem from one true motivation "Can I see naked ladies?"

I think the general term is "retrofuturism."

They are going to put Windows 7 on that old system?

Nope, and boy was it inaccurate regardless.

Yeah I was wondering if she sat there nitpicking every tiny error

Heh, she never saw it, she could hardly leave the house at the time the film was released, let alone comment upon it. She's 97 this year, its crazy to think what she's seen in her life time, and what I suppose we all will as well.

That thing doesn't even have enough power to be a pocket calculator.
