I think my P4 is new enough that it didn’t even come with a floppy drive which kinda sucks. we still have a shitton of floppy disks but nothing to run them on.

Yeah I suspect most of them are now days. If I ever got one I’d want to inspect it before I ever used it. really want to see what is on some of these floppy disks.
I’ve found really ancient shit in other peoples houses before; lol.
Not mine as my family has moved around a lot sooo yeah.
But I think technically the oldest thing I’ve found is the IBM model F so far. Made in 1983 so. Well technically I bought it and a car full of 80/90s tech for $5 so I basically found it, lol.

Wifi card in surface is detected but Qubes doesn’t support my universities security settings🙁
really? I don’t see any reason why It shouldn’t.
I also dont live with a family that keeps old crap, lol.
I guess the oldest one I actually got for free/found would be my dual pentium pro systems actually.
That came with tape drives and 5.25" drives along with 3.25" ones as well because 1995
I threw out everything except the motherboards+CPUs and one of the tape drives though because reasons.
They use EAP it doesn’t work with a lot of devices. I tried the Leap but it doesn’t want to play
Usually with linux either the university Wi-Fi is either a) basically unsecured and you can log in with no passwords or anything lol
