'Hi Steve - For Q & A
Apologies this has taken so long, I emailed you about this some time ago but then lost track of time and couldn't be bothered to type this on a phone or tablet.
Alas, I am now in-front of a computer with a keyboard so can create the response properly:
As a caveat this is not meant to be a dig at you or anybody else, the perhaps challenging statements are internal-monologue things that I have said to myself
so I am genuinely interested to know if you feel the same. As in this is not me saying "What are YOU doing" but more asking if you think in the same way:
I used to have a large(ish) gaming/hardware collection which included a Bandai Pippin and a Neo Geo AES. A relationship breakdown meant that they went "missing"
from the shed in which they were stored. Initially I was quite upset about this but then shortly afterwards I thought: What was I/am I doing? I have all of these
things around me and yes I have enjoyed playing them and collecting them but ultimately do I really need all this stuff around me?
So the question is: Do you ever feel the same, look around you at all the boxes, wires, games, shelves bent under-load, blankets over boxes etc and think:
What am I doing?'

'FOR Q&A. Have you ever thought about selling a lot of your old computer stuff and have money in the bank for a rainy day.
you can always play the games on emulators. Or keep one or two of your best systems.
I had more gaming systems and so many games I would never play then got rid and now have kept my Atari Jag , n64 and Xbox first one.'
