That’s really cool that someone thought to preserve this and put it on display in a museum. It’s like a modern historical artifact from the golden age of computing.
Now do Suprnova! Those early, end of Kazaa days were magic.
I wonder if it was donated by the founders, or recuperated from seized evidence maybe?
I would like to know that too.
What an amazing piece of history!
Who created piratebay?
Gottfrid Svartholm, Fredrik Neij, Peter Sunde https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pirate_Bay
the beige CDROM drive on a black panelled case is peak turn-of-the-millennium PC. Not to mention the airflow holes that are practically an afterthought.
I thought the same thing. I remembering upgraded to a light-scribe drive which was cool. I thought it would take off more but USB keys killed it.
