Yes, they still make them. I must admit that after those first CF-25s, I've never used any other laptops than the Panasonics. I'm so used to their...
If you are in for a vintage Toughbook, the Panasonic CF-27 Mk4 is the real holy grail. It's a Pentium 3 model. It supports...
Its looks very AR20 mechanism. The differences I see are that the rotary switch has been changed from mechanical to optical. The motor is also...
I made money with the laptop. Simply put, I traveled with it to all sorts of remote places around the world where there was oil. There, I used it...
I’d like to share some pictures of my first portable MP3 player. I think it was around 1997 when I first discovered MP3 music. Like many others, I...
What a wonderful and detailed description of one of the first MP3 players! I remember those days when I was eagerly waiting for a simple, portable...
"Ok I heard one in person, and yeah it'll smoke any vintage, as well as the DJ Tech"....If Reli says this, I'm definitely going to want one! Now...

The only thing missing from that ad is Ernst Stavro Blofeld's Cat :) Those stairs and wall give it such a wonderful 60s vibe. This machine is...
Sony CFS-W50 in red :)
There's really not much information available about it yet. I've put it on my wishlist. Perhaps there's a date on the motor mechanism or somewhere...
Nice interesting machine! With FM! Found some pics of it from some old ebay listing. Check out the tuner scale. It was not only JDM. Any idea from...
Looks like a Philips 774! That will be one hell of a loud party there with the Rock Steady Crew :fisch
I think getting the service manual is a great idea. That way, repairs are much easier, because you can check if everything is properly assembled...
