Back in 2004, Microsoft released a fingerprint reader for Windows XP machines. It sucked as a security product, but could actually be kinda useful if you wanted to easily switch between user accounts on a shared system. So let's see what it could do!

I still have mine. I bought brand new right when it came out… used to annoy my mother because she couldn’t use my computer 🤣
-
i remember these for elementary school growing up because you had to use your own ID number for your lunch swipe, but administrators couldnt expect a thousand 5-8 year olds to remember their code so we used those

Microsoft: What an inconvenience using a password! Microsoft: Is suggested using a password to protect your information because this tool won't do it

The Dr. Breen "f**k you" was a perfect nod.

"I'll give Dr.Breen the middle finger" Barney vibes "IF YOU SEE DR.BREEN TELL HIM I SAID FUCK YOU

I’m surprised at how functional and useful it was. Fast switching between accounts was very cool.

We had this at my school library to take out books back in 2007 or so.

I can just see someone's sibling running into the family office and putting their finger on the reader while you're playing runescape lmao

Microsoft actually had a rebate program for 64 bit users of later versions of Windows. You would call a certain number and give them your hardware info for your scanner, and they would mail you a $35 dollar check. Source: did that myself

Watching these vintage XP videos makes me miss XP more and more. (don't miss the security vulnerabilities..)
-
Why does it look like a flip phone?
-
I have an XP era Microsoft keyboard with one of these built in! I use it as my main keyboard
-
Installed those in the office back in 2005 - Not for security - For convenience - All staff had their own accounts available on all the terminals. They could just hit the fingerprint reader and go straight to their own account - Very convenient like you say a 6:30 👍👍

I think we need to see if it works on Windows 10/11!
-
3:29 install software first before plugging a USB device? Truly a Plug & Pray Microsoft moment
-
11:13 Bro became Barney Calhoun

If there's one thing I must say, it's that the algorithm has been shoving this one video everytime and everywhere I open YouTube. (Literally. Any device.) Congrats, you caught my attention.

"Firefox [..] with a third party addon called 'Fingerfox' " ... inhales ... thinks ... ok, no.

Oh my god I wanted one of these so badly as a kid ever since I saw the box in a random electronics store back in 2008 or something lol
