I spotted this old computer on eBay Australia for only USD 17, AUD 25. It was a local pickup in Melbourne and after checking out the photos, I was surprised that it was still available. Because I live further away, I thought it could make for a fun video, recreating this computer with matching parts, to see how it runs classic games.
