Dining room? Well, I ain't got no dining room. Instead I have a machine room,
a command room, a small kitchen and bedroom, and of course a data centre room
(closet with tapes and spare parts).

My parents used to have a dining room. It now contains this PC, the PC/XT
with the EPROM programmer, etc, a laser printer, a PDP8/e system, a
TRS-80 Model 4, a DAP, a PERQ, an ITEM, a Daybreak, an FTS-88, an HP2100A
and many more toys...

Nothing. For some odd reason they're happy to house my computer
collection. Mind you, they get all electronic and mechanical repairs done
free of charge. Oh and my father collects slide rules, so he can't realyl
complain about other calculating devices :-)

Must be *huge* slide rule collection to take up anywhere
near as much space as your machines! (Bet they're less
noisy and don't need their caps reforming too!)
