One of my first-ever commercial jobs, in 1990β¦
Pixel art of a Philips P3348 386 SX PC for a large screen at a former annual technology fair in the Netherlands called Firato.
I pixeled this in Deluxe Paint ("DPaint") on an Amiga, in 16-color high-resolution mode, 640 pixels wide. π

@kwramm Cool. π I didn't know the PC model name anymore, thanks!

@metin the actual model is P 3348. Mine also came with 2MB RAM and a 100MB HDD. I later put a Soundblaster 1.0 in, then a Roland LAPC-1. I think VGA was a Chips and Technologies chipset that just didn't want to give me Super VGA in DPaint II for PC (darn!)

@kwramm Ah, good ol' Soundblaster. π
And DPaint II was an interesting odd beast in the series. It was the first DPaint with a 256-color palette before the AGA Amiga was released.
Such a PC and DPaint II remind me of thisβ¦ π

@metin yeah, I was pretty jealous. DP2 with 256 looked gorgeous on my dad's 286 with a VGA screen, compared to my A500's rather blurry RGB monitor with 32 colors
