I find that most people in my life have at least one "thing" they are collecting. It is often an insight into their personality and it is fun to hear people talk about something they are passionate about.

I grew up with that stuff. The ti99 was very powerful for it's day and we had an Atari 400 which was eventually replaced by an Atari ST. My school friend had the 800. His dad used an Apple Mac 11e.

Before that my dad used a Commodore Pet to work from home. They were cutting edge at the time and it introduced the home computing concept to us. 1980 was great.
