No I stick with the simple stuff like Amigas, Atari ST's, 8 bit Commodores,
Apple IIgs, Timex, old PC's, 68k & PPC Macs, etc. Most of my problems come
when trying to find drivers for oddball upgrades, figuring out where to get
obsolete parts, or messing with Apple Unix configurations. Just like every
other hobby you spend as much time researching as you do acquiring and using
(at least for me anyway).

Then you must not have tried to set up an S/390. :)

Atari (or an S/390) with little or no experience
is what's insane.

I never had too much of a problem setting machines up that I never
touched before, most have allot in common. Google is a big time saver
if you ever run into problems. If you start getting into the
architecture find a decent forum that caters to those kind of
machines. Having a manual is very helpful, and if you get frustrated
put the thing down and go do something else for a while. I guess even
Sellam is human like the rest of us and has bad days.
