Ever since VICE (a C64 emulator) was released about 20-25 years ago, I ended up abandoning all my hardware. Gave it all away. The emulators are just fantastic, and I have all my disk images saved as .d64 files, so I'm not missing out on anything.

I still have my VIC-20 around somewhere, and I feel nostalgic every time I see it. The first week I owned it was an amazing time... couldn't wait to get home from school and play around on it.
