The end of the world seems to be coming sooner and sooner ad that means I won't have to work for 30 more years when I retire.

We had these old ass everex (I think that was the brand) 386's that had an one line 8 character display on the front that would display what drive was being accessed and what sector/track it was on. It was pretty useless, until we found the memory address that held the buffer (80h if I remember correctly. We were dumb so we wrote a TSR in turbo pascal that are random times would scroll something like "this computer is about to blow up in 5...4...3...2...1...BOOM!".

I don't think anyone really cared as it was the secondary computer lab used by the programming club mainly, but we thought we were really bad ass.
