14. Definitely. I bought a decades old computer off of eBay a couple of years ago

similar to one that I used as a kid. Let's just say I paid triple digits for it. For certain computers, even very old ones, there is a market for them.

And I am glad to say that 2 years after I bought the antique, I finally got it connected. Was/is great to relive old times. (I am a bit of a techie). It was a real blast for me to see that screen that I worked and played with decades ago.

You would be surprised what people are willing to pay for certain types of computers for nostalgia's sake. Totally agree that it's worth spending a few minutes to see what the prevailing price is. Worst case, the OP can always give it away, MAKING SURE they wipe the hard drive if possible.
