Here's mine. The T1 is just insane considering the size and it's priced pretty well too for a CNC'd case.

I feel Madison's MacBook Pro. most actually used macbooks I see (including mine) are just a special level of scuffed but they somehow keep on living. Like, sure, does my bluetooth kinda not work? Yes. Is the battery just awful? Totally! Do I still love my little XCode machine? Absolutely.

This was a super interesting watch! I feel like everyone has at least one piece of tech with a story behind it, and it was really cool to see you guys share yours. I'd love to see more of this.

 

now i'm just waiting for this thread to turn into a show and tell too

they are all messed up

The portion where Andy talked about that Leica resonated with me. Film cameras are just so wonderful to use, and Leica is basically at the highest tier there is. I have several 35mm, a few 120 medium format cameras, and even a 4x5 large format. The 4x5 was my grandfather's when he worked as an event photographer in the 50's, so I'm wanting to go through it and make sure it's in top shape before using it. My favorite photos I've ever taken were on 35mm though, very accessible for the budding enthusiast and there is still a large selection of 35mm film of all types available even now. Plus, there are still quite a few photo labs that will develop film if you don't have the space or skill.

 

Very cool video.

I really liked this video!

It makes me realize how much old tech I loved over the years. And sadly I horded the wrong stuff!!

 

Just another reminder I need to clean out my attic.

A DreamCast.
Anthony chose... a DreamCast.

 

...

 

WHY ARE YOU SO F***ING FANTASTIC?!!??! What right do you have to be this goddamn awesome!?

Best console ever.

 

Edit: Ok, so I finished watching the video now (had to hurry to profess my love of the DreamCast, could not wait) and man, those racing shots with the drone... really make me wish I could fly a FPV drone in my area, but it's forbidden to high hell. Regardless, awesome stuff Colin!

Chicken... sticks?

[Ross Siggers]

The fact that Anthony loves Dreamcasts made my day. I looooove them, I'm a bit of a collector for them, got a respectable amount of stuff, including a few sealed games.

 

Although I'm yet to delve into the modding scene for them. I have one that I plan to heavily mod(dchdmi, gdemu, clock battery mod, coloured case), then I'll have some sort of freakish holy trinity;

 

A modded Dreamcast.

An original Dreamcast

A Dreamcast turned into a PC

 

 

Oh p.s. @GabenJr the controller is a little better with a PS4 thumbstick. It's quite an easy mod

Now that I've recovered from my brain BSoD over Madison saying "chicken sticks"... fun video, it's nice to see the personality and passions of different LMG team members this way.
