I am, of course.
In some countries like Spain, where computer technology came
more slowly than others cause of circunstances about I don't
like to speak now, an afficionado to classic computing has
a lot of problems to obtain some class of equipment.
The only ways we have are eBay or another auction house, and lists
like this, ever thinking in the problem that suppose the shipping
costs and the shipping act itself from any foreign country of one
machine of big or medium (and even little) size.
I vote for this site.
