My neighbor passed away, and had two what seemed to be old P4-era
machines sitting on a carport for about a year. I was tempted to ask the
family if I could take them, but I don't have room for retro hardware.
I've got to virtualize old systems now.

Not to say that if I could find someone tossing out a Sun Sparcstation
2, 5, IPX, Ultra 1 or Sun 3 that I wouldn't make room.   :)
