Price guide for vintage computers

Hate to prolong this already too-long thread, but that raises an
interesting point; since that's exactly what most of us were doing in
those long-ago days, hacking around the insides with our soldering
irons, is it really a sin to do the same thing today instead of keeping
them on the shelf in pristine condition?

Comments?

Everything is fine with what you state as there is no right or wrong way to collect,
IMO. The only exception I would take about your statements above is, if in your quest
for beat up machines that YOU would beat them up in order to get them to your liking.
I assume that is not what you do, but felt the need to mention it. Even though one's
system is theirs and they can do anything they want to with them, I personally take
exception to intentional damage of items. Again I am not saying that is what you do.
