H89 assembled or never assembled?

But on the back of that, I start thinking that there just aren't enough hours in the day to run (and keep operational) everything that I have, anyway - I end up with a few favourite systems, and lots more stuff that spends most of the time just sitting on a shelf. After thinking that, I then start thinking that maybe it'd be better to keep it as a kit of parts, because there might come a time when there aren't any kits left, and it would be more interesting to people in a museum somewhere (particularly if all the assembled ones had long since ceased to function anyway) in its current state. Of course the reality is that I'd find it fun to assemble it and get it working, and so perhaps wouldn't be able to resist :-) But I can understand how there's an argument for keeping it as-is, even if the owner isn't treating it as some form of investment. cheers Jules
