I also shot this footage about 8 years ago as well and sat on it til now.
In the previous video I explored a Compaq Prolinea 4100. Now meet it's companion, the HP Vectra 5/100. It's essentially a slightly better 486. It has the following:

Intel Pentium 100MHz CPU (Yet to be tested with the division bug)
64MB of EDO RAM
Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16 Vibra Sound Card
Linksys LNE100TX Ethernet Adapter
Maxtor 1GB IDE Hard Drive
16x IDE CD-ROM Drive
1.44MB 3.5 Floppy
*Dead* Built-in Cirrus Logic VGA
*Working* S3 Trio64 SVGA Video

Now why would I want this when I already have the Compaq with similar specs? Well someday I'd like to have a retro lan party with similar spec'd machines. This won't be the last Hewlett Packard featured on the channel.
