I certainly do! I'm honestly a fan of vintage hardware, especially old DOS and Windows 9.x stuff. So far, I have:
-Packard Bell Multimedia 820 running Windows 98 Second Edition over MS-DOS 6.22, with a 3GB IDE hard drive, a CD-ROM drive that is a little sticky and unreliable, a 5.25" 1.2MB floppy drive, a 3.5" 1.44MB floppy drive, USB 1.0, and a Network Anywhere Ethernet card
-A Toshiba Sattelite laptop running Windows X P Service Pack 3 with a (I think) 100GB IDE hard drive, an Atheros 7005 Wifi/Bluetooth adapter, a DVD drive, and naturally, USB,
-A Sony Mavica FD-71 floppy disk digital camera,
-A CRT TV/DVD player combo unit,
-A VCR,
-A 2-tray cassette deck,
-And a Raspberry Pi 3B+ running Raspbian Stretch, or Retropie, depending on the use case.
I intend to get a few more old machines as well, including a Commodore 128, with all the hardware I'd need to run GEOS 128 and QuantumLink Reloaded, an IBM PC 5170 (AT), a ZX Spectrum 128K "Toastrack", and a parallel port, black-and-white dot matrix printer.
What about you? What old technology doyou have? What do you want to get?
