So what retro computing presents did you get?

My wife gave me one of those to clean the dust 😀

I got a 2nd Audician 32 Plus from my wife. What a woman! She also got me a digital multimeter. 😀

The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.

I got me one of those NES minis. No PSU included and as noted elsewhere on the internets the controller cable length is insultingly short. I have Super Mario Bros burned into my synapses so noticed that the music is too slow and the controls are slightly off, so it's not a device aimed at people who have played the real thing in the last little while. Otherwise it's OK though I guess 😀

Life? Don't talk to me about life.
