VLUG-
I just plugged in, and turned on my old (first) computer, a Hyperion. It cost me some $4,405 in 1983. It still works, just as it did when I bought it.
JFTHOI, I ran a simulation of my two favourite lottery numbers for about a million years on this Hyperion in GWbasic. It concluded that it would take at the minimum after about three or more simulations about 34,000 years to win the lottery.
There would possibly be a real interest in a show of old computers. I would most certainly bring my old Hyperion, and if I can find the parts, the Timex Sinclair, WITH the extra RAM module.
Cheers, Stacey F.

Your definition of free differs from mine as the ad indicates it's $30.
