Not that those are bad machines, but...
  1. They don't have big metal keyboards (and cases).
  2. They actually run modern OSes without putting in a new computer.
  3. They aren't machines I grew up on.
If I had them, they'd wind up being terminals or thin-clients. The Kaypros' the only thing I'd actually mod into something cool and useful. (A more likely outcome would actually be an x86 gaming-ready machine, rather than a Pandora...)

That said, if you're ever thinking of tossing them, I might be game to at least cover shipping costs to get them here; while I love old machines, I am aware of the uselessness of most of them, and too tight a budget to collect them regardless, so you can probably get more on ebay.
