Second thrill:
finding a 70 Thousand dollar corporate
server for 70 dollars (marked down to 30!)
I'm a bit older than some of you but I reached
that point only ten years ago.
For me, it was seeing a $10,000 PDP-8 (new) marked $250
and haggling it down to $35. That was at Dayton, 20
years ago. It was my first classic machine (well...
the first machine that was already a classic when
I got it; I had an Elf and a PET, but they weren't
classic yet).
