What do you do with your old tech?
I got too much crap, it&#x27;s not just tech but, the tech is what I&#x27;m most conflicted about. My stash includes a Timex Sinclair, a couple of Atari 800s and Mac classics (no keyboards), a ColecoVision and a VIC 20, a Commodore 128 and quite a few Commodore 64s with associated 1541 drives and other supporting pieces&#x2F;parts as well as numerous beige boxes from 386s on up<p>I know part of it is sentimental [0] since I ran a BBS or two on the C64s and some of the IBMs. My issue seems to stem from the tech still being operational (especially the Commodores) but not being useful besides a reflection of the past. [1] Its part sunk cost as well<p>I&#x27;m reaching out as a sanity check to see if there any ideas to utilize any of this besides the recycling bin. I do not want to become the Weird Stuff Warehouse [2] for my area but I&#x27;d rather not just chucking everything out if there&#x27;s a better use that I haven&#x27;t thought of or about<p>[0] Ask HN: Do you become emotionally attached to your old tech?
