Do you collect anything?

I could get into collecting fountain pens. I have a very expensive Mont Blanc and a Pelikan. I also have some interesting pens and mechanical pencils, some are multi-color, like my Norma. The old Fisher Tri-Pen (black and red ballpoints plus 0.7 mm pencil) is my favorite for daily use.

Sometimes I play the original Monkey Island games, Fate of Atlantis and Flight of the Amazon Queen.

Not sure why I keep them except they work are T-series IBM notesbooks.

It all started with the t10 and now own t20,t21, t30,t40,t60,t500 and w500, w530. I even have docking stations etc.

I used to use them as servers for various development tasks however virtualization(running another computer within a computer) it all went away.

My kids use a t500 as their computer with a $70 SSD it flies!

I used to collect lighters, mostly Dupont and Dunhill. I also collected Cognac.

They were expensive hobbies, a Dupont lighter can be as much as $800 to few thousands. Cognac is expensive too, Louis XIII was little over $1k and it's over $2k now(about $2400-2500 at Costco)
