There are mainly just two things wrong with old computers: 1) they're not as powerful (speed and memory) and 2) they often need some repairs and modifications to continue to be used.

But other than these 2 things, old computers are generally just superior in my opinion.

@golemwire@fosstodon.org The first could be a good thing. Limitations is what make you creative and less prone to procrastination. Nowdays we are full of tools, upgrades and improvements, so often we end up jumping from thing to thing instead of doing what we're supposed to be doing.

@sterpeto@social.vivaldi.net That's very true, actually. Not to mention the spectacular effort required to create computers that run this fast. It really causes fun market stuff to happen doesn't it?

Ironically, I just had to restart my PC because my computer hang due to an
#NVidia / #Nouveau failure. So on that... I'd love to have a simpler computer (and about that, I'm still tinkering with my #Commodore #C64U commodore I think I'll find a good use for it).
