I feel the same about old HW as I do old cars: some deserve historical recognition for their importance, and I'm thankful for the uh, passionately committed people who maintain them against all odds and sometimes at ridiculous expense, so that these important historical icons remain, but they are the past, and I don't live there anymore.
While we can learn from them and their inventors/creators, if we choose, I'm much happier with my rock solid highly reliable five year old RAM and my new MacBook Pro. I've driven a lot of the Jeeps ever made, and off-road I'll take my JKU Rubicon over any of them (except maybe the 2004 "LJ") any day. It's a beast to maintain mostly because I am beastly to it, and the older ones are worse for that.
I don’t rush after the newest and shiniest (my M3 replaced a 2013 Air), but when it's time, the RAM and JKU will be replaced with new.
