       As I continue to trawl through old backups please enjoy this screenshot of a NetBSD system dated Feb 2005. Not sure what I was up to, or what the system running it was.#NetBSD #twm

       @wezm I love old screenshots. Nearly 25 years ago I was building NetBSD 1.5Y from my Solaris 8 desktop at the BBC. Fun times.#solaris #netbsd #evilwm

       Oh and here's a photo from 2001 showing a NetBSD crash. The first UNIX-like OS I ran on my own hardware was NetBSD in 2001 on a cobbled together PC with a Cyrix 6x86 CPU and some memory from who knows where. It would crash under heavy load, here extracting the pkgsrc tarball, due to bad RAM or the CPU getting too hot, I can't remember.#NetBSD

       @jperkin fantastic! That looks like a big screen for the time.

       @wezm It was one of the flat panel Sun ones, I think 19"? I'm front left in this screen grab from our opscam around that time. The Sony Vaio on my right was my #NetBSD laptop.I used to be able to read tiny fonts. Time has caught up with me... ;-)
