Every now and then I get a feeling that it might be a sensible thing to rationalize my collection a bit. I mean I got three different systems to run Amiga software, three systems to run C64 software, three to run Spectrum software and two to run MSX software. In each case, there's one all round machine that would suffice quite nicely. Most of the stuff stands idle as I usually concentrate one or two machines at a time. There's also a couple of projects waiting for me to find time to assemble them. The thing is that I like fiddling with the hardware and the object of fiddling varies based on which system I'm most excited about at the moment. You really can't fiddle with an emulator, or of course you can but it's different kind of fiddling. The fiddling factor also justifies different models of the same system, therefore I'm reluctant to let go of any of my systems.
On the other hand, I'm pretty happy with what I got and with the exception of a Memotech MTX I don't have any urge to get into new systems. I'm also shifting down in getting upgrades to the existing systems. In the future I hope to be able to properly display all my systems.
