Remember the alleged tea about Megnuts wandering wasted around Windsor?
Here's an update. Sounds like there may have been some truth to it. Allegedly.

IBM 5150 and IBM PS/2
Been putting off cleaning these two but ran into them while making space in the garage so I took a few quick pics. A pair of landmarks in computing but I grabbed just for the memes.
The 5150 is as close as I've got to the 5100 from John Titor's posts - an icon of computing, time travel, and conspiracy theories.
The PS/2 I like just because it gave it's name to one of my favourite connectors.
Both in pretty shabby state. One rusted and dusty, the other a bundle of loose parts, both missing all their peripherals.
Lots of work before I can even test if they power on so they're going back on the shelf for now. I'm so excited to flip those huge, chunky power switches and hear them hum.
