[darksun9210]

commodore:-
Vic20
Amigas re. sig.

Nintendo:- NES, N64, GameCube
Sony:- PS1
Atari:- XEGS with detatchable keyboard.
Sun:- IPC with a cycle5 turbo board (sparc5 equivilent), solaris2.6
and some (yawn) x86's

[McVenco]

I've gathered quite a collection since returned to the Amiga 2 years ago, but since I'm more an Amiga user than a collector I have decided to keep only this:

* Amiga 4000T and Amiga 2500 - both fully loaded with gfx cards, accelerators etc.
* C64 breadbin and C64 wedge model - both for making music, with Prophet64 and the hopefully-soon-to-be-released MSSIAH cartridge
* C64-DTV

The rest of my collection is being sold right now.

All other computer stuff I have isn't retro (Wii, laptop and desktop pc)

A1000 (not working though :/ )
A1200
A4000 with Apollo 4040

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.

Yeah, i mostly just sit on the sideline and looking, i do stuff in the Amiga scene still but i decided to just be abit more in the background as..well yeah its not been that fun the last year (forums etc).

PM me your psn id , or just add me and let me know its you, if u wanna be on my list that is

[grumps]

Not much left now, sold most of it

Just a CDTV
       Oric1
       Oric Atmos
       Amstrad PCW
            :-?

[fishy_fiz]

Very little these days, although Ive recently started collecting again, so hopefully soon I'll be able to add a lot more to the list.

A500
A1200 (bppc/grex/voodoo3/256meg fast)
Sega Saturn (one of my favorite machines)
Dead Sega Dreamcast (need to buy another, as I'm very fond of the Dreamcast)
PS2 (almost as dead as my Dreamcast,.. drive is buggered and very few discs work these days)
Xbox
Performa 5260 PowerMac

I have a few other machines as well, but theyre not retro so  I wont bother to list them. Despite not being able to do it myself (no digital camera) it'd be nice if people can provide pictures of thier collections. Word lists arent all that exciting to look at, and some people have a weird tendancy to just make stuff up :-)

@Lempkee
Your collection is freakish and Im jealous  :-)

Here is a list of 1980's / early 1990's computers I own (listed by year):

1980: Apple II plus, TRS-80 Model III
1981: Vic 20, TI-99/4A (2 - 1 NEW in box!)
1982: Atari 1200XL, Commodore 64
1983: Kaypro II, Atari 800XL (2)
1984: Apple IIc, IBM Portable PC 5155
1985: Amiga 1000, Kaypro "New 2", Commodore 128
1986: Colour Computer III
1987: Amiga 500 (2), Mac SE, Compaq Portable III
1988: Amiga 2000HD
1990: Amiga 3000, NeXTstation
1991: Mac Classic II
1992: Amiga 4000
1993: SGI Indy

Notice how only 2 are actual "PCs". I generally hate PCs, but these two were free and they are from the 80's. The IBM has a nice "clicky" keyboard & amber screen and the Compaq has a plasma screen.

I now use a couple "modern" computers (which I got free) running BeOS, but the keyboards I use with them were made in the 1980's - nice "clicky" 1984 IBM AT (best keyboard ever) and 1986 Model M.

Besides the clicky IBM keyboards, the "award for best keyboard feel" goes to (surprisingly) the TRS-80 Model III, TI-99/4A and the Kaypro "New 2".

Wow, I don't feel so bad now with all the stuff I have (or had) at one point or another.

Currently have a combination of old and new stuff which includes:

Amiga 500 (w/GVP HD+8)
Amiga 1200
Amiga 3000 (working on getting that 4060 board fitted)
Apple IIgs (w/ Zip Chip, hard drive, and rare Apple CD-ROM)
Mac Quadra 630 (overclocked to 40 MHz, OS 8.1, but very badly yellowed)
PowerMac G5 / Dual 2.7GHz
2008 MacBook 15-Inch
2009 Mac Mini
2x PC clones featuring Dual Xeons / Asus PC-DL motherboard
2x PC clones featuring overclocked Core 2 Quads @ 3.5 and watercooled
2x Sega Dreamcasts (one never opened)
Gamecube
Xbox 360
PS3
Wii
Magnavox Odyssey 2 (no clue if that still works, I think I'll need to find out soon!)
Atari Lynx (acting up with corroded game contacts last time I checked)
PSP

At one point or another I also had a:

TI 99/4A (with the MBX joystick and keypad add-on)
Apple IIe (with a whopping 1MB of memory)
PowerMac 9500 (w/800MHz G4 running OS X)
PowerMac G4 Cube (1.7GHz dual processor upgraded)
Super Nintendo (taken by the ex-girlfriend)
Nintendo 64 (also taken by the ex)
Another Gamecube (the ex again)
Original Xbox (current girlfriends brother took that)
Another Amiga 500
Another Amiga 1200
Another Amiga 3000


I regret selling my G4 Cube and original Amiga 1200 at this time.  The G4 Cube, although slower compared to the G5 I still have, was definitely a marvel of engineering for the point in time it came out.  And the original A1200 was a heck of a lot more stable and decked out than the unit I currently have.  I also have a N64 cartridge of "Duke Nuken Zero Hour" that I'll probably never play again.  Boo-hoo...
