I didn't end up buying anything so fancy or expensive as any of that this time around. Just a few smaller bits I was looking for, and for very decent prices.
What I was most excited about was what I thought was a Sound Blaster AWE32 at the bottom of a bin of random ISA cards for $7. Turns out it's actually just a Sound Blaster 32.
Oh well, a ~$50 card instead of a ~$300 card. Still a deal.

Amigas continue to be sanely priced, as you'd expect.
I found one of these in a thrift store in the early 2000s. Video Toaster, keyboard and mouse, everything except maybe a monitor. I was vaguely aware of Amigas and the Video Toaster at the time, so I wanted to grab it to mess around with... but I was too lazy to go to the bank or an ATM to get the $40 cash it cost, and it was gone the next day.
Dumbass.

On the free pile, something I never would have imagined existed: a Snap-On Scribe II, a (presumably) dot matrix printer. Clearly this one has been well used in its life. Going by Snap-On's general pricing, this must've cost more than a house back in the day.

I saw this DEC InfoServer 1000 and my mind went instantly to "classy as shit Greaseweazle omni-enclosure." No budget for that kind of thing at the moment, sadly!

Faux stone was a highly underrated style. This and that Silicon Graphics keyboard look classy as shit.

Even with a... not-great keyboard, there's something so right about playing Tetris on a Soviet computer.

How does hosting a church on Sundays to the exclusion of computer history events further the mission of the Computer History Museum? It fucking sucks as a venue for VCF West now since it’s restricted to Friday and Saturday. #retrocomputing #vcf #vcfw
