...heh...I own a dozen or so computers. I worked in I/T for 37 years ever since the inception of the first computers used in the business arena.
I have 3 Apples, including an original MAC B&W screen, and a LISA, as well as a more sophisticated Apple MAC. I own a North Star and a Kay Pro 64 with LISP AI software. Also an Atari 1200XL with 12 game carts, and a Commodore 64 all in perfect condition. 3 IBM Laptops and this one I am typing on is a Sony VIAO with a solid state hard drive. And a Compaq suitcase style so called portable, and all are in working order.
I've always said I would write a book about the evolution of this phenomena. I am retired from IBM...
