Ok, I just wanted to share these pics of old computers.  This is such a geeky thing , but dangit I love it!  These are located inside of a case at Dunn Solutions in Skokie, Il.  
Check these out...

This is an old Radio Shack computer. Look at those big floppy disk drives.  OMG. 
















This is an old Commodore PET.  I'd love to see this thing fired up. 


Believe it or not, this is an old COMPAQ.  What a crappy monitor. Crappy UI design.  I'm sure at the time they were thinking this was being compact, but WAS IT?



This is an Atari 800.  I'm surprised that I never heard of this during my Atari video game days.  I'm sure this was probably less for the gamer market and more for the computer user market. 

Check out this old MAC.  I remember playing "Dark Castle" on this back in '86.  Rock on!

Honestly, I don't know what this is, but it looks pretty crappy.  COOL!

Anybody know the model of this mac?  It's pretty cool.  I remember this cube model vaguely.
