Confessions of a tech nerd: Why I buy vintage

vintagetech1
I’ve just found this link posted on Apple II Enthusiasts Facebook group, where Christopher Phin writes about his passion to buy vintage computers (mostly Apple in his case). It is a very entertaining and light reading, and at least for me, it reflects very precisely what I feel about vintage computers.

The author said his in his 30’s which explains why for him the vintage he buys is too modern to me, except for the classic Macintosh maybe. But the sentiment is exactly the same when I am able to buy some only 8-bit computer from the 80’s, and he expresses it very well:

“Why do I buy vintage tech? Because I couldn’t when it wasn’t.”
