And, why exactly, are there TWO W!ndoze keys on modern keyboards? They are normally only used for one purpose, opening the Start menu ... and not used during normal typing! I do use them for fast user switching (WINDOWS+L) and there may be other shortcuts. But I would think one of them could be assigned to something else. Perhaps a Tux can be printed on one of them
As for collecting, a part of the reason (for me anyway) is being a custodion of something that isn't made any more, and it's enjoyable being able to get things working on these old machines. My C=64 has special value to me since I spent countless hours writing my own stuff for it, as well as playing games. Something I've not been able to do with a modern PC (apart from the odd game or two).
