Thanks, I finally made it past the swinging rope in level 2 of The Jetsons: By George, in Trouble Again. It's a game without ingame save support and I just need to finish it since the 90s 😀.

Have you already sold some of your Socket 7 CPUs? It's not that I want to buy some, I'm just curious if there are still people who want those CPUs.

Somewhere on the Belgium-Netherlands border, I've got a couple of AT minitowers and one AT bigtower that I want to throw away, unless there's someone who wants to collect them for free. Unfortunately, I'm not going through the hassle to ship it to Malaysia.
