Wouldn't it be cool to have a section of the forum for old computers?

[JoeCoke]

I really love older computers but have no where specific to discuss them. I know that technically you can just post under the regular sections, but for instance, you make a post asking a question about a 3DFX Voodoo card, it'll just get buried by today's stuff, like the millionth thread asking about 480 vs 1060. I also know that not many will agree because a lot of people don't understand why anyone would like obsolete tech. I just love this forum so much, and I refuse to join another just for dealing with old stuff, that would be stupid.

 

What are your thoughts on this?

i'd just put it in General discussion tbh

I dont think theres enough of a following for old hardware, outside of peripherals (think ibm KBs and OG akg cans.) outside of the nostolgia factor theyre not very useful/relevant.

 

anyway, if you want to talk about it find like a r/vintagetech or something like that.

It'll easily get buried because people who actually care about old stuff are a small minority.
