Ok I?m not a major collector or anything, but I have a few computers and consoles and over 50% of them I didn?t pay a penny for. Not that I?m wanting to sound like ?ha ha look what I?ve got for free? or anything, I?ve not got anything special for free and if I was offered something of worth, I would inform people of the potential value of the object, but it is amazing what you get given when people know you?re a bit of geek.
Blagged items include:
1) Atari 2600 (pong with paddles is still the most two player gaming fun available, I can even get my mrs to play)
2) Commodore 64
3) Amiga
4) Atari ST
5) SNES (American)
6) My NeoGeo pocket was a birthday present don?t know if that counts
7) I?ve got a Dreamcast in the works, but I think I may have to bung the bloke a few quid, I?ll let you know.
So what have you blagged, what will people give away for free, I?m always amazed, maybe it?s just that people think I?m a charity case, I do wonder sometimes.

,) so they'd have only chucked it out anyway, or worse - given it to the Game Station down the road (YES, they actually do that! :O ) Otherwise there's no way I'd steal from a charity.
