/otg/ - Old Tech General

Who old tech here? I've been using a Smith Corona PWP 6000 Plus typewriter from 1993 to type out important papers without distraction
I'm liking the linear switches, though I think the neighbours want to kill me when I hit print. Still gotta see if the floppy drive works

Post some of the oldest tech you have that you still use here

Here's what it sounds like when printing

I fixed up an IBM Selectric 2 I got for free.
It works almost perfectly but I can't get the correction ribbon to work

Is there a trick to getting it working? I can't get correction tape working properly in my machine as well.

idk I can't find anywhere that it's jamming.
I thought about asking the YT channel 'Phoenix Typewriters' but I've bothered him enough on an Selectric 3

Guess I'll have to harass them too

i had sexual relations with a zip drive
i miss her

I still use this old P70, even though it's slow and cumbersome

That's incredible

Can you type a "You're a fag" too?
