Am I the only Zoomer? I see a lot of "I remember"-type responses, so I have to wonder.

Alright! It's kind of similar for me, I grew up playing among old towers in our basement, and I still have a supply of retro stuff handed down to me, if I can catch it. I love seeing problems solved in different ways, or even the same way but visibly in old hardware. Today it's all buried under the higher layers of abstraction, and the the other end of gen Z hasn't even used a filesystem necessarily, let alone had to think about the physical layer.
