I think this Thread is kind of missing here. It´s just about funny computer or software related things you found on the internet.

Here are some of mine:

Here's a funny ancient video about our favourite TTS voice.

"Windows XP, FAT but sexy". Guess someone didn't have a hard drive above thirty gigabytes when making the video.

I wonder if any of you guys are old enough to remember when this came out:

Bohemian Rhapsody itself would also sound amazing on the actual YM2612, now I come to think of it. MegaDrive audio > SNES audio IMO and I bet CRMX is in agreement UwU :3

I honestly think both the Mega Drive and the SNES soundchip are really good, but in their own ways.

For something like Bohemian Rhapshody, the YM2612 would be amazing to listen to :3

I mean, the PS1 used a descendent of the SPC700 (since Sony designed it) and a lot of games used a combination of CDXA and chip playback since it saved loading times than directly using CDDA audio, as well as made it more difficult to rip the audio data directly from the game files.

The main drawback of the SNES chip is the paltry amount of RAM allowed for sample playback (64K) which is why many games sounded so muffled.

The Mega Drive version of Midnight Resistance has quite possibly one of the best 16-bit era OSTs ever
