Use emulators. Much easier and fun because you don' have to deal with real hardware

(Get and MSX 2+ or a TurboR (16-bit) - as an emulator - btw)

More fun because don't have to deal with hardware? soo... where is the fun?

Oxidation, faulty connections, composite video input, flaky FDDs, I don't miss that in the least

At least get a driver emulator hw that reads from SD/CF or maybe USB drives ;)

> that reads from SD/CF

Great way not to miss that oxidation and faulty connections.

So much fun filling my life with inanimate fragments of plastic and metal. All that matters is the code; in 200 years do you think people will marvel at old PCBs? I doubt it, but the code will forever be beautiful.
