Will people show off their old computers and phones in say, 30 or 50 years in the future?
Every now and then I see a vintage car in the street, originally from the 40s or 60s, in spotless condition. Cars have been around for longer than computers.... But would such a thing be viable for electronics?
Wait, does it exist already and I never heard of it?
This... Really feels like a very stupid question. Sorry

This is absolutely a thing. There are communities focused around a number of vintage computers (Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, Sinclair Spectrum, Atari 400 & 800, Apple II, MS-DOS Machines, early Windows, First generation iMacs, the list goes on) and pretty much all game consoles.
The one specific models I'm nostalgic for are the IBM ps/2 30 & 50.
Damn I feel old now. Used every single one of those. Owned several of them. Still have piles of Amigas in my basement too. Like, at least five of them that are functional plus a couple that don’t work anymore.
RIP my A3000T.
