Something I would definitely not have a need for, but it looks pretty cool. They various types of configurations.

This is what computers were supposed to look like when i was young.

Honestly, I don't know how old you are but I am 29 and as someone who loves modern tech I have fallen in love with old retro tech colors and designs as well.

I recently have been modifying old gaming hardware like my GameCube and buying things like Gamboys and Nintendo DS:s and even modern takes on old hardware like the Analogue Pocket.

I absolutely love the way these look in this image.

I'm old enough that computers in private homes were science fiction when I was young.

They still are today! You just have to pick up an old book
