Is that a motherfuckin Compaq Presario 5000 keyboard?

I don’t know, I got it for $2 at a thrift shop this weekend. It’s a compaq for sure. I got it to go with my early 90s IBM mouse. I got so excited I forgot to research it. I will definitely be doing that after work

I played so much Runescape on that keyboard. The actual old school Runescape, where your character was a shitty little sprite.

I really need to try to play it. My computer lab at school growing up was lacking. We had Oregon trail, chopper commando, etc.

I haven’t played a ton of old games besides doom, Age of empires, etc.

Although I played Warcraft and original counterstrike at a pc bong once.

My main experience with older pc games is like 2002-2007, when I finally was able to save and buy my own PC.
