Things We Have

Here in the office of Haxor Noob we have a collection of gaming hardware locked away in our vault.  Some almost the same age as me,  others a good deal newer.

The list so far contains:

• BBC Acorn
• ZX Spectrum
• NES
• SNES
• N64
• Game Cube
• Wii
• Gameboy Advance
• DS
• DS Lite
• DSi
• Dreamcast
• PS One
• PS2
• PS2 Slim
• PS3 (60 Gig)
• PSP (1000)
• XBOX
• XBOX 360 (1st Gen)
• XBOX 360 (Elite)
• Advent 4211 (AKA MSi Wind)
• Asus EEE PC 901
• Asus EEE Box
• iPhone (3G, 16Gig)
• iPod Touch (32Gig)
• iPod Nano
• Blackberry 8310
• Dell Inspiron
• Sony Vaio Z51

All the ones that need it are used across a collection of display devices too, most are tested on a good ‘ol CRT, Plasma and LCD.  Covering all visual bases for you, the descerning geek.

We have a house full of TVs and viewing devices, these include:

• Beko 32″ HD LCD
• Samsung 40″ HD 1080p LCD
• Samsung 20″ LCD
• Samsung 22″ HD 1080p LCD
• Hitachi 42″ Plasma
• Sony 22″ LCD

Over the last few decades what was a small collection of cartridges, tapes and CDs has now grown into a towering pile of plastic waiting to crush any mortal brave enough to venture into it’s shadow.  We have everything from old cassettes, CDs, cartridges, CDs and DVDs.

When not gaming we’re blowing into cartridges to make them work, wiping discs against our amble breasts to remove dirt or winding back the loose cassette tape in order to bask in the glory that is twenty minutes of loading time.

There’s nothing like the high pitch epileptic fit inducing tone of Lazer Squad loading on a ZX SPectrum to induce nostalgia.  I get flash backs of being really good with the ZX, I can never remember whether it was playing the games or fine tuning the cassette player with the tuning screw.

Happy days.
