I never said I was. Some of my sysstems are working systems because I
bought them 20+ years ago to do exactly that, work. Improving them is
reasonable in that context. The reast are collected because I wanted one
back when and could never afford it. Now I get to play with it.

I have MB1 and MBII systems as well plus boards made by my former (four
lifetimes ago) for MB as well. Nice stuff, big, sophisticated often very
fast
or very slow.
