Old computers find their cool

From the Weekend Standard, "China's Business Newspaper":
These days people are holding on to their old desktops and laptops - for nostalgia's sake, for the kitsch value - turning yesteryear's outmoded computers into today's historical artifacts and giving them a growing value in the ever-so-hungry collectibles market.
Maybe that old TI-99/4A or TRS-80 Color Computer I have in my closet might be worth something. Then again...

Speaking of old computers, the Computer History Museum is a good place to look at them.
