Amigas
When I was about 17, and my peers were busily involved with drink, women, and other such things, I started a Commodore Amiga User Group. This would have been 1997-98, by which time the Amiga was pretty much dead as a platform. Despite that, we got a few people meeting up regularly (in fact, three of them still meet up weekly in the pub to talk about computers and sci-fi).

My main computer was an Amiga 1200 hacked into a tower case, which I used until 2001 when I switched to a Linux PC. But I still have all my old Amigas.
*counts up in head*
At least 6-7 of them - 3 A1200s, 1 A600, and a bunch of A500s. Plus loads of disks, peripherals, etc. And my Commodore 64 - can't bear to part with that either. Probably worth something, if I could ever be persuaded to sell them.

Oh yes, I played Warhammer and the other Games Workshop games as well, and still have all that stuff somewhere at my parents' house too.
