25y of support work and building and running networks has left me very
jaded with IT, though. I want out. Playing with older kit is still
fun, and occasionally using it to write on, but that's about it.
Modern games are mostly boring, with intensely difficult but very
derivative gameplay, stunning graphics but no originality. The OSs are
so complex that dabblers can't get involved, the hardware is vastly
powerful but locked away behind elaborate drivers and
professionals-only-need-apply languages. It's all rather dull.
It occurs to me that you might find something like beagleboard.org
interesting...
