Today we're checking out Win4Lin - an old virtualization software that let you run Windows software on Linux. It claimed to do so at native speeds, since it gave the guest environment direct access to your machine's hardware and filesystem. Hope you enjoy!

Well it's a new year, and for some reason AOL is still selling a $7/month subscription to their desktop client. So you know I had to check it out to see why...

Remember that time Microsoft sued over a Linux distro's name? And then had to pay $20 million to ensure it would never get used again? Yeah... today's story is a fun one. Hope you enjoy!

So a viewer sent in an interesting suggestion recently: try and "debloat" a Windows bootleg. Basically, we're gonna take one of those ridiculously modified versions of Windows and try to restore it back to factory settings. Hope you enjoy!

Did you know that Nokia used to make Linux tablets? Well... they actually still do. But back in 2005, they released something that didn't really look like a tablet at all. This is the Nokia 770.

So here's something a little different! Today we're checking out Geckium - a UI mod for Mozilla Firefox that gives it a more Chrome-like appearance. And it's pretty convincing! Not only that, you can select from a handful of Chrome versions to imitate... and even install Chrome themes?! Yeah, it's pretty awesome.

Well, this sure is an exiting one! I recently got my hands on some extremely rare webOS prototype hardware thanks to a viewer named David. So today, we're going to take an extensive look at these things and explore what this mobile OS could've been.

So here's something I've been wanting to talk about for a long time: the Windows 7 House Party Pack! Yeah... this was a real thing back in 2009. And I figured that Windows 7's 15th anniversary would be the perfect time to cover it... even if I am a week late, heh.

Hello Patrons! Here's a video I've been wanting to make for years now. Back in 2021, I discovered a disc I burned of KolibriOS inside of a DVD drive. And I thought "hmm, I should do an episode on that someday." Well... today is that day. Hope you enjoy!

Hello Patrons! So I recently found some knockoff handheld consoles on Temu and figured I'd pick them up to showcase in a video. Are they going to be bad? Probably. But hey... I kinda expected that. Hope you enjoy!

Hello Patrons! Oh boy... was this quite the project. Most of my time last week was spent putting this video together. What started out as a simple "hey let's try one of the ReactOS nightly builds" turned into a marathon of driver issues and OS re-installs. But thanks to a ReactOS developer, we got some things working in the end! Hope you enjoy.

Hello Patrons! It's been over 2 decades since Apple released the eMate - a half laptop, half PDA... thing. And it didn't even last a year before being discontinued along with the entire Newton product line. So today, we're gonna travel back to 1997 to see just how bad (or good?) this thing was!
