Well, I collect for the same reasons as Enrico and my collection is
somewhere over 300 comupters. It would be wonderful to make sure they are
all working and use them on a regular basis but that is not even remotely
feasible to say the least. We all have different reasons for collecting and
mine are 1) to save them for their historical importance, 2) save them from
the scrap yard, and 3) have fun playing and repairing them as time permits
(not very often!)
