As time goes on, the number of people with the knowledge or interest to run these legacy systems will be declining, and I wonder what the market will be for them say a decade from now. My guess is that prices will drop sharply because the demand will simply not be there while the supply will increase as older people move on. Your collection is impressive to say the least, but it's not for the faint of heart and can easily overwhelm the uninitiated.

Awesome! Ever research what you could get for all of it on eBay?

Never bothered because eBay isn't the way to sell a large collection,in my mind, although it would work to generate interest to deal on the side. I've been at this for decades, so I know the value of say my entire ADAM collection and I wouldn't be very flexible if ever I decide to sell.

You must have a very understanding Mrs. NIAD

What she doesn't know won't hurt her! The only time she was like WTF was when I acquired a large collection from a former Coleco employee that was shipped in 6 large boxes. That one (so many rarities that were not known to exist like the CV cart version of A.E. that i found on a data pack) and one other large score where the two that really stick out over the years.

Nice Collection. I lost most of my Adam stuff but still have most all my Video games starting with the Atari 2600 all the way up to the current consoles.

Oh wow! I'm not much of a collector myself, but I love seeing what other users have. You must have a very understanding Mrs. NIAD

N.I.A.D.'s ADAM Computer Collection

Here are pics of my ADAM Computer collection that were taken back in 2014. I have a number of items over the years and parted with a few things such as the EVE PS-1 Power Supply.
