Noel's Retro Lab - Invidious

Noel's Retro Lab

Welcome to Noel's Retro Lab!

This is Noel, and I make videos about old computers repairing, restoring and, sometimes, enhancing them. I like to understand why things work exactly the way they do, so I'll often go on deep dives to figure out why something isn't working right or trying to make something better.

Donations of retro equipment are always welcome. If you'd like to donate something to the channel, you can contact me through Twitter, Discord, or the "business inquiries" contact feature on YouTube below.

You can support Noel's Retro Lab on Patreon: www.patreon.com/NoelsRetroLab

I DON'T DO PAID REVIEWS. Product and sponsor policy noelsretrolab.com/reviewpolicy.html
