    $30 Box of Random Electronics

    I used to play DopeWars on mine in highschool. Teaches you good life advice. Buy low, sell high! Just make sure it didn't lose power for more than 2 minutes, because then all your data is gone

    VCF was fun, met Mac84, Techknight, and a few other people that I knew online, and saw a few people I haven't seen in a while.
