We had a bright orange magic box that was connected to a beige windows 95 box that you were never allowed to turn off because nobody knew if it would survive a reboot and there was no software for the orange box for a more modern setup. Almost felt an like arcane ritual, typing in the command lines to get it to work.
Could honestly try a virtual machine or an emulator at that point. Would be worth a shot.
This used to be IT in the early 2000s

Beige as far as the eye could see (in a data centre)
There is also this particular tone of light brownish green which is on so many industrial tools like drill presses, table top saws and so on. I kinda dig it
Ooh, never thought of that as so ugly it's pretty but I can kinda see it now
Nowadays it's a lot more of dark mode, which is a shame (especially since our software still doesn't have it)
