I have a channel devoted to retro computers, but I also love good modern technology and gadgets. The problem is, my subscribers are not fans of both. This channel will remove my retro computing content and share the technology and gadgets that have caught my eye or that I use on a regular basis. I hope you will subscribe to both channels and understand if you pick only one. But pick one! πŸ˜‚

Attention! On my retro computing channel, I have a topic that's likely of interest to those who follow this channel. I’m clearing off the workbench for an ad hoc livestream tomorrow at 2:00 PM Eastern. We’re going to unbox and assemble the new SOLDR PRO soldering station live on camera! πŸ”ŒοΈ

There’s no strict agenda for this oneβ€”just a casual build and some great conversation in the chat. If you've been curious about the gear I use for my retroCombs repairs, this is the stream for you. If you are coming over from this channel, drop in chat and let me know.

Is "Android 14" just a buzzword, or does it actually make a difference on your TV? πŸ€”

I finally review the 2026 vSeeBox V6 Max to see if the hardware specs and the new Android TV 14 OS live up to the "Max" name. I break down the unboxing, the full setup process, and run a few speed tests to see how it handles the real world.

If you are thinking about cutting the cord or upgrading your current setup in 2026, you need to see this UI tour first.

🚫 It was finally time to retire the old IKEA desk.

βœ… Say hello to the new heavy lifter in the studio!

I just finished assembling the FlexiSpot E6 Pro for the new livestream setup. It’s a massive upgrade in stability and ergonomics (and my back is already thanking me).

If you are looking to upgrade your workspace or just want to see how this thing goes together, check out the new video! πŸ‘‡

The vSeeBox V6 Plus is here... and I'm confused. πŸ€” They "upgraded" it to Android 14 (which is nice) but then downgraded some of the hardware from previous models. Like100M Ethernet port. Yes, 100M... in 2025! What do you all think? Is a new OS worth the hardware downgrade? Let me know in the comments!

I'm putting the ClonerAlliance ViewPRO through its paces – this is the standalone recorder that lets you capture your vSeeBox footage without a computer! Think easy, think retro-style recording, think pure convenience. You asked, I delivered!

Go watch it now and let me know your thoughts. Could this be the missing piece in your vSeeBox setup? Discuss! πŸ‘‡

You love my vSeeBox videos! Now, check out the EVPad 11P Android TV Box and learn if this is a better option than the vSeeBox products. As always, remember, how you use these devices determines their legality in your neck of the woods. Tired of these Android TV box reviews? Leave a comment below and let me know what else you'd like to see on the channel. I do have a couple of non-Android TV box videos coming up next. I hope you'll take a look at them.

Not normally a YouTube shorts users; however, decided for some devices, it might make sense to create these quick takes and the Ulanzi Fast Claw (amzn.to/48BWOo6 #ad) seemed like the perfect device to give it a try. Let me know what you think. Good idea or not?
