Compaq Contura Aero 4/25 486 laptop (1994).
Cost me £12, it needs repairs to the screen bracket & a clean. Also I have no idea if it will work, additionally it has no PCMCIA floppy drive. BIOS info stored on a hidden partition on the HDD, no floppy = problems

Compaq Contura Aero update:
The VGA out didn't work, but not really sure why I need it anyway 😀
I fixed the snapped hinge, also greased them up, as it was stuck solid (probably why it snapped)

Har 2 VAD Contura. Anna produsent nå. Veldig behagelig enten det er sitte, middagshvil, prøve å sovne til rolig musikk når man våkner i 03-tida, eller har lungebetennelse.
Er den minst stygge vi fant. Pene hvilestoler finnes ikke.
Våre har anna armlene (helt). Kjøpt på Finn, er styggdyre som nye.

Spending some quality time with my car to install a new radio now that the heat has calmed down and do some quality of life improvements.
Changing out the old window switch plugs from a bit of a mess because I changed out the switches to Contura illuminateen switches, to DT1 plugs.
