rubber_jonnie wrote: Thu Aug 26, 2021 9:01 am I only own 3, the ][e, a Mac Classic and a Performa 6200.

Trouble is there's also the 10+ Atari STs, the 3 BBC Bs, an acorn Electron, a QL, a couple of Spectrums, a ZX81, an Oric Atmos, A1200, numerous consoles, 2 SGI Octanes and some other stuff that I can't remember right now.....

I might need help....
I don't see this as at all unusual, other than the ST habit. :-)

In terms of pre-Intel Apple stuff, are 2x Mac Plus, 2x SE/30 and a Portable too many?
Doesn't seem like too many to me.

I blame @exxos for the ST habit personally.........:lol:

Me too...I think I only had my original 1040STF & Falcon (plus a donated 'broken' 520STFM and two BBC micros) until the arrival of this forum...now the total is in excess of 30 Atari's, two Amigas the Amstrad NC100 (no, hang on...that one is your fault @rubber_jonnie !)...

I have had to stop even looking at fleabay/marketplace in case I see yet more bargains...at least until the existing collection is sorted!

Fair enough, I'll take the hit for the NC100 :)

At 30+ Atari's, that makes you worse than me BTW ;)

@exxos I'm excluding the 25 or so 'junk' boards I got from you (for soldering/desoldering practice)... :?

@rubber_jonnie Possibly more STs than you but maybe not as many retro computers overall?

Maybe we should let this drift back to its original intent :)
