Sour I may be, but there were plenty of sources of neat computer
"junk" before eBay. And I liked those sources, thank-you very much.
They cultivated a sense of patience and appreciation.
In my books, collecting old computer stuff has as much to do with the
hunt as anything else. If the hunt is turned into a keyword search
and instant gratification, it looses its appeal. Why? I think it's
because you learn a lot more about computers while hunting them down
than you do with them at your finger tips.
