I used to be a « computer victim « but I almost totaly lost this passion with time (im 35yo) and this old gear is enough for me!Wow - You guys like computers almost as much as us old guys like stereo equipment!!
I hope I will keep the passion for music at least…
I’m almost 63, and I’ve been a serious music lover since I first heard DSOM and Europe ‘72 in 1973, nearly 50 years ago (although I was listening to Beatles records long before that). The audio bug naturally followed when I first heard a real top notch rig (Denon Tt w/ black widow tonearm, GAS electronics, and Dahlquist speakers) in college in 1978. And both of my sons (34 and 30), having grown up in a house with good music playing all the time have also been serious music lovers since they were small. We even have a very active thread between the three of us, the primary subject of which is new (or old) music we’ve discovered.I used to be a « computer victim « but I almost totaly lost this passion with time (im 35yo) and this old gear is enough for me!

So, it doesn’t go away, at least not for me, although from time to time the focus changes. You’re on a long, strange trip - enjoy the ride!

I'm 65 and like Win 7 era Thinkpads. I don't run a farm like I used to and haven't bought over in 2 years.
I put Win 7 back on one yesterday and am selling it to a guy tonight at a profit of 60% after 4 years use.
I can't see the screen like I used to and if I don't keep typing I'll lose the ability to do so.
I can still build, Admin and run FreeBSD and Linux desktops though.

I got a new box since after trying to live with my fanless Lenovo with 4G of RAM I could not. The Lenovo M75t mini tower is nothing to look at and there are some annoyances but it runs like a scalded cat. Ryzen 7 5750 8 cores/16 threads. I can transcode a 590M album in WAV to FLAC in about 10,2 seconds elapsed even on a bitlocker filesystem (not sure where the crypto overhead goes whether it's done by the drive or the AMD CPU...)
