Our children have more limited scope.
Of course, there are those of us in the younger end of the age range who
have a geeky "other half". Although apparently I'm not allowed to go
and buy that PDP-8/I off eBay. It seems that the 11/73, MicroVAX II and
the risk of bringing my 11/34 and 11/84s down here are enough...
I did consider parting with the PDP-11/73 but my gf wouldn't let me.
Not a common problem, I suspect.
