   My retrocomputing bucket list, updated:

   • Commodore PET (if I had a spare $2000, I could get a rare as fuck SuperPET today, without even leaving town)
   • Unisys ICON (a total pipe dream, there are like six of them left after the Ministry of Education fed them all into a wood chipper in the 90s)
   • IBM PC XT (not so hard to find, just expensive)
   • A Ukrainian-made Sinclair ZX Spectrum clone (Slava Ukraini! Herojam slava!)
   • Neo•Geo MVS (I'd love the full stand up arcade, I'd settle for a consolized board)

   In the past few years, I've acquired several important systems I'll never sell: My Amiga 1200, my self-build Commodore 64 SixtyClone, my KS1 ZX Spectrum Next, and now my Apple IIgs. I doubt I'll ever have all my bucket list computers, but you never know what tomorrow will bring.

     @thomasfuchs It ran QNX, was a diskless network computer with a file server called LexICON, and it was only sold directly to Ontario schools.

     @thomasfuchs Not a peep about it. What's inside? Z80?
