So, I recently acquired yet another lot of vintage computing items on the cheap. I got a RadioShack TRS-80 Color Computer and a bunch of games/programs. The cool thing about it is that RadioShack still technically supports the thing, since it falls under the products that they service in their repair shops for obsolete technology.

The games are surprisingly expensive, though.  D=

Any of you have any old computers? Even ones where there OS is MS-DOS is fair game.

Not me. My Legacy Collection sucks due to lack of money.

What does it look like?

Just got a bunch of Atari 800XLs, and a ton of accessories, including printers, modems, and of course games.

The cost? Absolutely free. Craigslist is awesome.  :)

It's all super dirty though, I'm cleaning it outside because it's so dirty. Still, can't beat free.

Very nice. Dirty or not, free is good.

One was in the box, and that was the only one that worked.
