    Just going to ignore the "YOU HUNGER FOR FLESH" window.
  • If you add a fan, Steve Jobs will spin in his grave fast enough to cool the entire system!
  • @JeremyLevi
    I appreciate that zero effort was made to select monitor sizes / resolutions with remotely similar DPIs. Watching the window radically change size as you dragged it between the three screens really was a thing of beauty.
  • @AndrewBeals
    Squirrel Simulator feels as if it should be a HyperCard stack.
  • @Hinoserm
    Oh hey, I'm the one who makes those Slaton Computers 16mb SIMMs. Glad to see them being used.
  • @JeffGeerling
    12:10 it's incredible an old Mac could do multi-monitor window management back then with less jank than a modern Linux desktop :D
  • @MrMegaManFan
    If old computers hadn't become so expensive, I'd love to have a Mac SE in my collection. I have very fond memories of using one exactly like this in the computer lab of my high school after hours.

    SCSI External Video Card... The most hilarious combination of words and letters EVER!
  • @trekintosh
    “I wonder why the SCSI video card slows the whole system down?” Asked and answered lmao
  • I'm going to go through all the videos on the channel to see if you ever did an episode about the Socrates pictured up on the shelf in the back. I had one as a kid -- it was as close to a Nintendo as my parents were willing to get -- but between the membrane keyboard and incredibly sluggish performance, I can't say that I got a lot of use out of it. Thankfully they had no problem with me sitting in the basement all day at age 10 playing SimCity 2000 on my LC III.

    My cat simulator will bring me your squirrel simulator as an unwanted gift which will crawl up my leg, get away and hide in the house and I won't be able to rescue it until the next day.

    [banging on the table like a hungry child] Case mod! Case mod! Case mod!
  • @95Comics
    Name the squirrel dee, so you can call the game dee’s nuts! 😂
  • @BrianMaddox
    Oh Oh Oh…call it the Mississippi Squirrel Simulator and then you can add in a “Go Bezerk” button!
  • @ClearComplexity
    An SE30 is my only "Classic Mac" type Mac... but it's in a desktop form factor and not in its original casing with glorious tiny low res display. I got the board as-is, repaired it, but didn't want to buy a chassis, old or new, so I just made my own custom case, maxed it out, and I ended up with a solid color Mac in a small form factor... which was moot because my main classic Mac is a Maciotosh iici maxed out... Couldn't let the SE30 board go to scrap, and it was a fun project, so it works out.
  • @rager1969
    July 4th obviously delayed this video from Saturday to Monday and I saw the same thing with another channel that released last night rather than Friday night. You are both Americans, makes sense. Funnily, I saw a third channel that released today rather than on Saturday and he's Swedish living in Spain, so I don't know what that's about.
  • @frankwc0o
    This is exciting to see a PDS booster; suitable for SE/30! For $180 it's affordable. Can't wait to install it on my SE/30.
  • @KOSMOS1701A
    2:13 its beautiful, its like a streaming setup from the early 90s
  • I was not a retro computer lover until i discovered your channel I enjoy your videos so much
