To open, or not to open, the still sealed computer...

It'd be ultra cool if I could get the original monitor for this thing.

Don't open it!

Seriously though, think of the value it would have in 10 years time still boxed. Money, dear boy.

Yeah, take everyone's advice and don't open it. I'm sure you bought it purely for ornamental purposes. :P

Well, I vote for opening

Awesome, I would do same thing.

Yeah, it practically is like a whole new machine, and it powered up for the first time here... Apart from when it was manufactured at the factory.

Only thing that it needs is a new CR2032 battery for the CMOS memory. That's an easy fix.

Glad you didn't listen to the evil money-wanters

Kind of seems pointless to have opened that if you already had a modern PC.

If I had, I would either be a stalker or have been to your house before

Why? Old shit is awesome; I'm thinking of converting one of my old, shitty desktops to a W98 machine, provided it will work, since it will allow me to play older PC games perfectly, and submit runs of said games to SDA as there's no emulation involved.

You know you can play windows 95-98 games perfectly on a windows 7 machine if you go to your task bar and shut off "explorer" right?

Not by a long shot, not even counting DOS games, which won't work at all without emulation.

I don't know about you guys, but I hate keeping things in the box. I would never want to keep something in mint condition. NEVER.
