I remember using a Commodore 64 to do payroll for a company, and then I ran the computer for the windmills in Palm Springs, CA...it was an Atari 800!
Then there was the day I stared at an ADAM wishing I had the $400 to buy it on clearance....

And behave, or I'll break out the Odyssey2 and force everyone to work in 800 bytes of 8048 assembly. NO 6502 FOR YOU!!!

Some of those old machines rocked. No BSOD, and they ran and ran, Maybe slowly, but they ran.
Rexcently I needed a DOS disk to FDISK a system...heck no one sells DOS anymore! I had to steal the files off of Google. I felt so bad, using software that I did not pay for....

Bought it for $10 from a friends in my younger geek days.. did everything with it.. took it apart, reassembled it, later on went to sell it for $40 to another geek. Last I knew a bunch of RIT hacks had it on ethernet and serving a websiteif it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud; and I'm gonna go there free.
