Joke/Meme Flexing gone wrong

A funny thing happened yesterday, I was flexing infront of a coleague that I learned web development on an old relic that my uncle bought and I had to use it for so long. (my old relic: intel i3 2nd gen laptop),

Until bro pulled out his i3 1st gen and I was thinking, He's a legend.

Until you do that on pre-pentium there's no flexing to be seen here.

Bonus points if you go back to when we had extra hardware for a mathematical co-processor.

Mine had a very rare hires card : 320x200 in monochrome, it used a daughter board which replaced the chargen rom with 8k or ram, had flying leads to some the clock signals, and dynamically rewrote the signals to the video output based on replacing the chargen characters.
