Welcome to Computer History.

We are nolstagia driven with our choice of posts and discussion of the impact of technology.

A lot of what ends up posted here has a bias towards the 1970s' up until now simply because "we" experienced a lot of this "new" technology directly as it was released.

Our community goal is to become more than just a collection of links-- we want to be a community of shared experience.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.capebreton.social, are as follows:

@videodrome Just updating to IE5.5 like it's 1999.

Turns out that's not a full IE 5.5 package. The full ones are available here:

@chris @videodrome Still can't get it to work, even with 5.5 and adding to Trusted Sites. It installed the ActiveX component, then stopped here.
