Hi Seth,
I'm sorry to see anyone leave the list or the hobby for any reason, but
especially because of comments made on the list.
I strongly agree with Rob. Hang on to some of your favorite toys. You
never know when you might want to play with them again. I have a lot of
regrets from letting go a lot of equipment that I might never find again.

The learning is the best part, I think. It's
almost a
letdown when something is already just working.
Weird Stuff Warehouse used to put "Guaranteed Not to Work" stickers on of the items they sold. One time I bought an
Atari 800 with such a
sticker,
intending to part it out to repair other
machines. To my dismay, it
worked
perfectly. I went back and complained. They said
I was the only person to
have ever complained, but that they would honor the guarantee if I
brought
it back, i.e., they would break it for me.
It's that attention to quality and customer satisfaction that is so sorely
lacking today.
