I think I suffer from computer hoarding. I’m ashamed to list all the hardware I have in the home, from tower to webbook and everything in between.

I have two 286 laptops. Thankfully (from my wife's perspective) the 8086 was disassembled and parted out several years back.

However, I keep her at bay because we know someone who has an OPERATIONAL Trash-80.

Same here. I even have a WebTV set connected to the TV in the living room. I guess I'm a hoarder.

Deprived, I wuz.

LOL you sound like me. While my office has a new i7 gaming rig and I have a laptop and tablet for work, my attic could double as a Desktop PC museum. I have everything I have ever had, beginning with a Commodore 64, 128, Trash 80, Amiga 500, Zenith, and on through all the desktop itterations from 8088 through current.
