Me too of course, but see below.

Same here of course.

Don't worry, you'll be the first person I'll invite to mine!

Screw the rest of them.  Do we really need them, those modern computer
wallopers?  A true Classic Computist is one whose Classic Computers are
his newest computers.  I judge people by their newest computers.  If you
have an XP box and use it, to me you are a worthless XP luser, and I don't
care whether or not you also happen to have a PDP-11 or whatnot in your
basement.  It's your newest and most actively used computer that counts
to me.  If you have a PDP-11/45 and want me to respect you as a PDP-11/45
user, then make that PDP-11/45 your main and primary computer and throw
that XP box out the window.
