And this is why I still hang out here, after abandoning nearly everything else.

I love how a discussion like this can occur here and there's no flaming or egos getting hurt. When you post a labor of love like this, it's great to see the reaction on HN.

I spend a lot of time trying to decide what to do with old tech in my volunteer gig. We have old Univac "dumb" terminals and I feel the need to plug them in and see if they still work. I come here for re-charging.

I think emulating old hardware is fascinating. Am I the only one who watches old media just to hopefully get a glimpse of the past?
