Sony's NightShot can do amazing things for filming video in complete darkness. But especially for recording video outdoors in the dark, you want to hear what's going on outside at night, as well as see it. I found a $10 GE microphone that is nothing special when hooked up to a computer, but when connected to the "Plug-In Power" mic input of a Sony camcorder, it becomes extremely sensitive, to the point that it can pick up the sound of footsteps over 80 feet away! In fact, you don't want it ...

An old video I recorded back in early 2008 using my Compaq laptop and a cheap webcam, but never uploaded until now. I demonstrate the spin-up and spin-down of four old 20-megabyte MFM hard drives, two 5¼" half-height and two 3½" half-height, respectively: MiniScribe 3425, Seagate ST-225, MiniScribe 8425, and finally the MiniScribe 8425F (a slightly "F"aster version of the 8425). ... old classic vintage pc seagate st225 st-225 miniscribe mini scribe 3425 8425 8425f mfm rll hard disk drive ...

Video clips from Westlife's appearance on Nashville radio station WSIX-FM in January 2003, to promote a cover of the Kenny Rogers song "Daytime Friends," which they recorded in town and then performed live at the Wildhorse Saloon. This was featured on the UK TV special "Can Westlife Cut It?" in May 2003. Thanks go to Susan of thecommitted.net for sending me a Video CD of the TV special in its entirety! ... westlife country music kenny rogers daytime friends and nighttime night time lovers ...

This Pentium-III laptop computer can't keep up with modern software requirements, but it still has a few tricks up its sleeve, including a built-in composite video output. It is also very small and light, just like my new ThinkPad. I installed a Compact Flash memory card in place of the original hard drive which crashed, but the performance isn't as good. And long live the Amdek Color-I monitor, from 1981! ... compaq evo n400c piii pentium iii laptop notebook computer pc windows xp pro 2000 ...

A quick presentation of my "new" IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad X60 laptop. It's actually from 2006, but it's almost as small and light as today's "netbooks," yet is MUCH faster, has a full "tallscreen" 12.1-inch display, and plays YouTube HD 1080P videos flawlessly. With 2 gigs of RAM, Windows XP runs great on it, and Windows 7 or even "hackintosh"-style Mac OS X would work fine as well. A full review video is coming soon! ... 2006 ibm lenovo thinkpad think pad x60 series netbook laptop notebook pc ...

It's been a very long time since I did any video game videos, so here are eight games all in one video: Ms. Pac-Man, Pitfall, Donkey Kong, Frogger, Q*Bert, Beamrider, Space Invaders, and River Raid, all played on my Atari XE Game System. Introduced in 1987, the XE Game System was the last and most advanced member of the Atari 8-bit home computer series, but all of these games would also play fine on the original Atari 400 and 800 computers from 1979. As you can see, the graphics and sound ...

My dad's home computer, in nearly daily use since he bought it new in 1999 at PC Richard's. Here are the original specs: h10025.www1.hp.com I upgraded it with an extra 128 MB of RAM (for a total of 192 MB) and a Zip drive, but otherwise the hardware is pretty much original. It has been absolutely 100% reliable and is even still running the original Compaq OEM installation of Windows 98 (first edition) and Office 97. He has a current computer at work, but at home this Compaq still does what ...

I've thought long and hard about buying a new laptop, but netbooks are too tiny and slow, regular laptops are too bulky, I hate touchpads and Windows Vista, and Windows 7 has yet to win me over. So in the end, I'm getting a refurbished IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad X60, with all the things I like: a fast Core 2 Duo processor, 2 gigs of RAM, a 12.1-inch "tallscreen" display, Windows XP Pro, built-in WiFi and a FireWire port, and best of all, the classic "eraser head" TrackPoint control. It's a little ...

Just some silly and pointless video of me trying out the various fader and transition effects of my old Sony camcorder. This is just raw footage from the tape, so as you can see it took me a couple tries to get it right. The "bounce" effect is my favorite. Then I demonstrate the GE Bedroom Entertainment System with its original speakers, which sound a little tinny but not all that bad for their size. ... bouncy bounce bouncing clocks clock radio radios ge ge general electric am fm cassette ...

I came across this fantastic song on a recording of "TBS Radio" 954 kHz JOKR from Tokyo, Japan in AM Stereo. "Maridi Mondo Morita" is as close as I can make out the title. If anyone has a full quality copy of this song I'd love to hear it!
