Just thinking about rare things I'd like to have some day but likely never will. What are yours?

My three right now:

  • Asus P/I-P65UP8 motherboard with the P6ND Pentium Pro daughterboard
  • A loaded Quantum3D AAlchemy 8164 system
  • ALR Revolution 6x6 machine

Like this? Bitchin' dual p-pro setup

And this? The great Pentium Pro haul of 2018

^.^

A 8164 is (relatively) easy to get by comparison, you just gotta throw enough money around and someone will sell one.

Yeah, something like that! My biggest problems are I don't have a lot of money to throw about, and not really any contacts to rustle up the comparatively rare (i.e. not-from-Ebay) stuff.

Same here. Just put a bit back every month, and eventually it will happen. Both the p65up8 and 6x6's took over a decade to acquire. Be patient.
