On another list, there has been a long thread about SO's and room for
the hobby. Does anyone else keep their collection set up and
functioning? Does your SO understand? I'm luck in that I have a large
room to set mine up. I currently have up and running:

NeXT TC slab, 17" Trinitron, laser printer, SCSI box, flatbed scanner

Sgi Indy, 20" Trinitron, SCSI box, Lexmark Optra with PS support

Sun Sparc 5, 20" Trintron

Mac Performa 631CD,DOS board, now just a 15" since the 20" Radius died,
StyleWriter 2500, LaserWriter II-NTX, ImageWriter II with LocalTalk
board

NeXT Cube with Dimension, 17" mono, ext CD rom, laserprinter, soon 21"
NeXT Hitachi on the Dimension

WinTel machine, 21" Mitsubishi, 19" CTX on Dual Head, Epson AL1000,
Epson Stylus 1500, Kurta digitizer, flatbed scanner

Commodore 128D, 14" RGB, MPS-803, 2 1571's running CP/M

Intel box booting BeOS, 17" monitor

Other printers and stuff: Calcomp 1043GT plotter("E" size), Zericon
PC3610 plotter ("D" size), HP LJ4si, HP OfficeJet R60, Canon BJC-4550,
Canon BJ-230, Tandy DMP-2100, Epson LQ570 (2 of them), Epson AL-1500's
(2 of them)


This doesn't even count the servers in the closet. I just took down an
Amiga 3000 that I'm selling. I also have been selling all of the Apple
II's ,Tandys and other machines that I collected. Besides, I don't want
to keep a lot of boxes in storage, they need to be used and ran.

I've told my wife she is kind of lucky. At least I don't collect
mainframes.
