  • Ok that’s even crazier, I had no idea they made the quattro in a mobile format. Yeah the HP website calls it a ‘portable workstation’.

    I mean compared to modern cards it’s a little old but back in the day that was mainly used by data scientists and field statisticians that needed ridiculous amount of simulation math

    Also, the designator ‘workstation’ back then was more than just ‘A place to work’, but a specific class of PC that was designed for high end tasks like rendering video or CAD, and they were ridiculously expensive. Fitting all that power in a laptop is really mind blowing to me

    You found a treasure there









  • There is really no benefit to relieving your ignorance

    If I leave you in the dark, I am badwrong for not doing free labor for you

    If I answer your question, I just get my inbox flooded with people looking to argue for no good reason.

    They lost a license on an old all in one game in the late 80s because they did not defend it rigorously enough in court. You won’t be able to find an article about it b/c all legal nintendo case searches get caught on the Palworld and Wii U controller court cases even if you change the date ranges.

    I don’t know what the name of the unit was, it was never released outside of Japan. IIRC it was a tank simulator game with the console built into a controller that looked like a little turret on a pivot and used the same tech as eventually went into the nintendo light gun

    The reason nintendo so aggressively pursues emulation is that they are scared of losing the rights to things like their bios files.
