It looks obvious

 I run into this site of old computers and discovered that it isn’t only the computers that got old. In fact it isn’t the computers that getting out of fashion it is us the computer geeks that can’t keep up.

But you can’t forget first love. The first computer I had with its simple one-touch keyboard and 1kb(!!)  RAM, My Sinclair ZX-81 . Later I spent ton of money and bought a cartridge of RAM extension.  It was 64KB and it was awesome, I was writing simple basic and assembler and I don’t recall using the full 64KB. I believe my mother still has it somewhere in the closet and I’m sure that if I’ll connect it to the electricity it will work again.
