Not too too vintage, but it's PATA and 15+ years old now I think. "Accidentally" stumbled into a thrift, found an open box new in box LiteOn iHAP422-98 DVD-RW drive, which I think has all the premium audio extraction features. So a bit whelmed about that. I seem to be scared of running out of working ODDs, I can't leave decent looking ones if I see them, though this one is a bona fide good-un I think. I think it might be better for "backing up" some kinds of disks also, not totally informed on that.
Also vintage hardware but weird for this thread probably, a "bag full" of 90s radios... Cobra CB, uniden bearcat and RadioShack handheld scanners and a SW amplified antenna. I mess with that kind of thing on an off. I know it's all Software Defined Radio this and that these days, which is wildly flexible, but if you find something interesting to monitor, you can maybe stick an old scanner on that frequency and free up the SDR setup. Handheld CB is a lot nicer than the one I've got already which is a bit too antique, (and kinda not all that smaller than original WWII walkie talkie 🤣 ) and I plan to use it when camping/boating etc. The bearcat specifically does weather channels as well which might be handy. These were all in very decent shape, probably over $100 worth to the right people. They may yet get involved in vintage computing, there's some data on the airwaves still.
Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.
