  Is that computer on?

  no, I think it is just like embedded with the old OS, assuming it is text-based, like DOS or something

  .... yeah, that ancient IBM XT could run Windows! Really!

  I am so tempted to take that comp and run...but the police would catch up to me, assuming they had IP's back in the day...

  ... uhm.... please tell me you're joking.

IP's on an 8 MHz machine that likely doesn't even have a hard drive or modem? *smack*

I'd be scared to plug it in anyway, power supplies do weird things when they get old. You wouldn't be able to hook it up to any monitor made in the past 15 years anyway ;)

  I'm sure you could get the conversion cables from your neighborhood radio shack though :P

  FYI, there have been TCP/IP stacks written for DOS for many years. And all you need is to boot from either a floppy to access the net. However, this operation would never have had that lol.

  There have been yes, but uh...

The fact that Geoduck thought he could get caught via IP was just too funny to pass up.

  That keyboard would be worth a pretty penny these days.
