Bah! That's new stuff. The oldest bits of working tech I have here are:
1. A BBC Micro Model B + accesories, from ~1983.
2. A computer that I designed and built myself for my college project.
3. A single board computer I built for my A level project that has a
telephone keypad for input!
Interestingly, all 3 of the above are based on variants of the venerable 6502.
Z80s were for pansies! :-)

Cool. The oldest Sun tech I have here is my Sun 3/80 running SunOS 4.1.1_U1
and a pair of SPARCstation 2s running Solaris 7.
