Amigas are easily my favorites, see the signature.

I have rescued a few other machines that seem to be experiencing renewed interest, or have a following.

Hewlett Packards:  several Hp-85s, Hp-86 & Hp-87
Hp-85 was Hp's first desktop 8-bit computer, about 1980.  Sold new for about $3600. All-in-one design (display, printer, data cartrige, CPU).  Still Cool.  A company in California refurbs these and sells them on e-Bay for around $500.

Osborne 1: needs restoration and software

Apple:  Apple IIc, Quadra 605 (OS7.5.5), other pizza boxes, a G3 Biege tower, G4 graphite

Timex/Sinclair ZX81

IBM: an original PC Jr, 5150, PS/1 (PC Dos 7 & Windows 3.1)


@ Lempkee

I haven't seen you around much in a while.  If you've been away, welcome back!

EDIT:  It's not retro, but I just got Xubuntu running on a PS3.  It has some the excitement I felt with my first A500 in 1988.
