The 386 Experience works to divert vintage electronics from being thrown away. The 386 Experience exists to promote the continued use of vintage computers and electronics. As these systems and software age, there are fewer and fewer of them available. Much of the software is discarded as "useless" and the hardware is thrown away for being "obsolete." We want to rescue the software and electronics before they vanish from existence. Computer users with knowledge of how to use and repair these systems are still around and it is our responsibility to pass this knowledge on to future generations. There was a time when you used a typewriter to type a letter, a 8-Track tape to listen to an album, and a dial up modem to connect to the internet. If we cannot repair a device to the original operation, we work to modify the device. These Texas Instruments TI-55 calculators would otherwise be useless without our modification to work by 9 volt battery power. They can be enjoyed by other generations and continued to be used for purposes that they were designed for over 40 years ago.
