I’ll probably also take this opportunity to off load most of my 3D printers. I’ll keep the centauri carbon since my son and wife use it occasionally and probably the Saturn 4 ultra since if I do want to print something, it’ll probably be in resin. The rest can go and stop taking up space.
I’m going to start referring to my early 40s as my really late 30s
Going to wait and let the RAM shortage get a little worse before selling my 5 year old laptop with 16GB of RAM for $2000
I’ll probably be keeping any game consoles and at least the Atari 800XL with a small chance of keeping the Commodore 64. The Tandy CoCo 2 is interesting due to the architecture and how it came to be, but not terribly compelling to use. The TI-99/4a is a piece of garbage that can go fuck itself. Of the non 8-bit home computers the Apple IIgs is likely a goner and I’m on the fence about the Tandy 1000tx it does take up a lot of room, but it’s the XT compatible I would keep and Compaq portable will probably go. I’ll probably keep the PowerBooks as they don’t really take up much room, and while the Performa 410 is nostalgic due to being the same model as my first childhood computer, I’m realistically never going to do anything with it. I’m not going to bother fixing or even reassembling the Osborne 1, just get rid of it in parts. I’ll probably keep the Windows 98 PC, I might realistically pull that out for games.
I *should* be getting all my retro computers out and getting pictures of them so I can list them on Craigslist, but it’s also too nice of a day to be digging through the basement
