Finally got my old Apple IIe to boot after 17 years in a closet

Honestly, I found it at my parents' place last weekend and the power supply was totally dead. I ordered a new one for $35 and swapped it out, which was scary. When I flipped the switch and heard that beep and saw the prompt, I was so surprised. Has anyone else brought something back from the dead that you thought was a lost cause?

I used to be the first person to just toss broken stuff. Fixing that old radio last year really changed my mind though, it's way more satisfying. Now I always check if something can be saved.

Isn't it wild how much stuff we keep just in case? Feels good to actually fix something instead of throwing it out.
