Sure, but would you rather spend $300 on nostalgia or, say $150, if it can run the same software, and looks similar? If I were to buy one, $150 is doable, $300

Sure, but would you rather spend $300 on nostalgia or, say $150, if it can run the same software, and looks similar? If I were to buy one, $150 is doable, $300 is GTFO. I do have "nostalgia" - I learned Assembly on a Soviet ZX Spectrum clone.
