[extropy-chat] antique computers

[Emlyn O'regan]

Table top video games from the eighties are now collectable, AFAIK. Worse
luck for me, I've always wanted a tabletop galaga, but they cost too much
these days.

eg:

Also, I've known people to go around collecting workable commodore 64 setups
these days. Don't do it! The memory of how cool they were is very fragile,
easily ruptured by a dose of reality :-(
