I wish.
I don't live close enough to a power plant, so I can't even get enough
electricity (not that I could afford it either).

I think I still have a computer I built when I was 13 though. A *real*
microcomputer (8080A on breadboards, everything, even numeric keypad
interface home made). Maybe I should say a *really* micro computer.

Actually, the "glass-FET" stuff is mostly audio and ham radio/shortwave.
Looking for a few good TV's though. I have a line on a "space-helmet" TV
from the late 60's. Trying to get the owner to part with it.
