New video! With Windows 10 support ended, there's plenty of people rethinking what OS they want to use moving forward. And for those looking to switch to Linux, Zorin OS provides a similar UI to what you're already used to. But is it the best Windows replacement out there?

Merry Christmas Eve! Usually there’d be a holiday themed video going out tomorrow, but unfortunately I’ve been sick the past few days. I’ve mostly recovered now so I’m planning on getting it out next week (hopefully before new years!)

New video! Here's a bit of a strange idea: can we successfully migrate from Windows 98 directly to Windows Vista? Well... this program sent in by a viewer claims to do just that! So let's check it out.

I just found out that someone put a sign on the side of the road where the Bliss hill is!

This wasn't me, but whoever made it put a quote from my documentary on it 👀

New video! Back in 2010, ASUS launched the Eee Keyboard PC - an entire computer housed in a keyboard, screen included! It's one of the strangest computer designs that I've seen in a while, and today we're gonna mess around with it.

New video! A while back we took a look at this bizarre smartphone that runs Windows 7. Which got me thinking... would it be possible to upgrade this thing to a newer Windows version? That's what we're gonna find out today!

Here's some (potentially) lost media for you! A viewer recently uploaded this video of the employee party that Microsoft held during XP's launch. It mostly features short interviews with some of the developers, but there's also clips of people on stage speaking.

New video! So a lot of you probably saw this one coming, but today we're gonna be checking out Windows 10 LTSC! This specialized release of the OS will be supported by Microsoft until 2032. And turns out, there's a pretty easy way to upgrade to it.

New video! Today marks the end of AOL Dial-Up. Because after over 30 years, the service is being retired. So I thought I'd try to dial into the service one last time before we say goodbye.
