E533: In this episode, I was requested to bring my Amithlon Amiga to work to help an attorney recover some old files off of 5.25. but i have to convert it back to windows 98 to do so. I show the machine and what it is, and how it still does great for such a old girl. Abit VP-6 Dual P3 1ghz sequential serial numbers, with a Compaq PD650 MO drive, and a 5.25GB dial sided HP Optical disk, and some other stuff.
