I find that rather unusual. In the 80s I used to call on companies
in Montreal and there were a lot of them in the small computer
market. More than likely there are other collectors and your
entering late on the scene.

Computers are tough to find here (not like california...) I have managed

1980x oh you mean recent stuff. ;) I have a handful of machines
I really like to use from the 70's. Just got some core for my PDP-8/F
that should be old enough.

No intrest in those.
