Wait, people thought I was bullshitting? That's really me.

Here's Retro Fox's photo taken with a Mavica CD1000

And here's another one @ms-dos5 took of me with Tube Time's Comix 35

Is that really CommodoreZ in the background of your VCF computer photo, or are they just joking around?

That's actually him, we were both at VCF East this year (along with several other people I know mainly online)

FUJITSU S-7/300 and S-7/300U

The Fujitsu S-7/300U was a workstation equipped with Sun Microsystems’ 64-bit UltraSPARC RISC-based microprocessor. Fujitsu announced the S-7/300U models 140, 170, and 170E in November 1995. The machines were supplied by Sun Microsystems, headquartered in the U.S., on an OEM basis and corresponded to Sun Microsystems’ Sun Ultra 1 line. The Fujitsu S-7/300U models were intended to strengthen the S-7/300 series of high-end workstations announced a month earlier.

The Fujitsu S-7/300, on the other hand, was a workstation running on the 64-bit SPARC64 RISC-based processor, which was jointly developed by Fujitsu and HAL Computer Systems. The S-7/300 was positioned as a high-end Fujitsu-developed workstation in the S family. Fujitsu announced the 140 and 160 models in November 1996 to extend the S-7/300 line.

"Astronaut John W. Young took this picture during the second orbit of the Gemini-Titan 3 three-orbit mission as the spacecraft "Molly Brown" passed over Northern Mexico at an altitude of 90 miles. The light-brown circular area at the lower right is the Sonoran Desert. The lower portion of the picture is Mexico, and the upper part is California. Young used a hand-held modified 70mm Hasselblad camera with color film."
