Yeah, I think I'm in the same boat. Except sometimes I cant help myself.

I've often listed old stuff on ebay (when ebay was good), for $1 along with a me
ssage that was along the lines of "this works, and didnt want to throw it in the
 bin, hoping it will get a new home".

When ebay was good, I'd sometimes get a couple $100 dollars for stuff that was j
ust sitting in a box. Not sure many use ebay these (I know I dont as much - and 
my attempts to empty the box havent even got the $1 now).

My new toy I'm waiting on is a few CM5 boards to go into my DeskPi Super6C that 
I've managed to score (hence my keeness to get SBBS running on 64 bit arm).

I also have an Radxa X4 coming (Pi sized but N100 processor), which might be SBB
S home if arm64 doesnt work out...
