Retro unboxings

[jathor]

I hope this is in the right section but I was hoping to get some more Linus Retro Unboxings, the one's he has are quite interesting and remind me of where we came from and how fast technology has evolved.... also, very very entertaining. 

 

what do you guys think?

 

more retro unboxings? and/or reviews of blasts from the past? i.e. he mentioned 8800 gtx a few times and so forth.

 

i for one would love some

I doubt he would be able to unbox anything classed as "retro" as it was most likely taken out of the box and used.

I loved the retro unboxings. He was about to unbox 9400gt or something a while back but it was just to showcase the coupon that came with it.

 

(Almost 500 posts :P)

Newegg did some retro unboxings as an April Fools joke. I found them pretty entertaining, they're probably still up.

just rebuilt an old athlon 64, 9800se (temporary, 7300gt later) and 2x1gb ddr400 and those retro onboxings (YESSS!!!) are newer than this...
tried playing minecraft on this, kinda works (fps is fine) graphics a bit buggy over 800x600..

back on topic, we have enough youtube channels for tech if anyone finds one that specifically does retro unboxings i think it'd be a good idea to link it in here..

Linus probably isn't going to do retro unboxings because probably he already unboxed them and forgot to film them or because that its very hard to find one.
