     @xarph @blakespot @kiteless How's using an input device like a completely band new car? This is fine.

     @blakespot @dosnostalgic @kiteless How much of a vintage computer can one replace with modern components before it stops being a vintage computer?
     I have no answers but I imagine this is aircooled volkswagen restoration territory, where all you need is the VIN plate and the rest is reproduction parts.
