    Why do you do this? (retro-coding)

    I like coding on the machines I originally used and didn't have have the money to afford. Boyle's law applies to computer science.... I like the mental stimulation of working in small places with limited resources and seeing what can happen. I'm going back further to machines that were around...

    Your best and worst vintage computer investments?

    I'm a hobbyist.... I don't buy/obtain old tech for investing.... I do it for the fun/enjoyment. Now, if someone offered me a VAX 11/780 free..... well, that would require some house re-arranging... :)

    Here is the picture of the unit. I think its in pretty good shape. I'm not sure how far I want to go with aesthetics (scratches, painting, etc). Right now, I want to clean it up nicely and replace as many of the discrete components as needed to keep it going into the future. Any...
