Papalapa Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) With the last incorporation of the TI-99/4A I reached the capacity limit. I would only make a (huge) effort for an Apple II or an Commodore CBM8032, but I doubt that it will catch either of them here in Europe due the high prices, so I show you my definitive retrocomputers collection. In order of proximity: A vulgar PC (puaj, don't keep in mind), an iMac G4, an iMac G4 iLamp, a Macintosh SE 1/20, a Macintosh Performa 460 and a Macintosh LC II (these last two sharing monitor, keyboard and mouse). And the rest of the "pets": A ZX-81 16K, a ZX-Spectrum 48K, a VIC-20 40K, a Commodore 64C, an Amstrad CPC464 and a Texas Instruments TI-99/4A 48K with some or their accesories. Except the Texas Instruments all of them have taken me hours and hours to clean, repair, expand, and add some extras (in fact I still have to do the S-Video MOD for the VIC-20). Apple computers are always on the table ready to use but the other ones are into a "book" with their cables, accesoires and so on as you can see in the following pictures: This concludes my collector eagerness and now I'm going to start enjoying each one of them by reading their user manual, typing the BASIC examples of the manuals and loading the three hundred and nine hundred programs into the respective microSD cards, so I have "work" until that I get retired and still beyond.. ?

Papalapa Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 As usually happens in the life, nothing is "definitive" as I said in my first post, here's my collection actually: From left to right: Macintosh LC II, Macintosh Performa 460 (both sharing monitor, keyboard and mouse through a Dr. Bott KVM), Apple IIe Enhanced, iMac G4 lamp, iMac G4, IBM ThinkCentre and Macintosh SE 1/20. The rest od the collection into the drawers remains unchanged. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papalapa Posted May 24, 2021 Author Share Posted May 24, 2021 (edited) Well, after two years of the original post, here are the updated photos of the collection today. The ones on the table are all interconnected in one way or another and ready to be started up. The ones in the second photo are kept in their boxes, eagerly waiting for me to take them out for a walk one day ? For space reasons I doubt that the collection will increase...
