better to look in the thrift shops these days... you'd be surprised what folks
take in to them for others to pick up and enjoy... i once found a complete C-64
with original packing, manuals, software with additional hardware and software
in a local thrift store for $20US... if i had had the cash available, i'd have
grabbed it then...

yeah, some ports do not like being connected and disconnected while powered
up... old SCSI is especially bad about it... it definitely doesn't like having
the wrong device plugged into it, either... eg: centronix ports used for
different items like printers and external SCSI HDs or scanners...
