Back to the root of my love of computing

Hello all,
My first ever computer was a PCjr with the 128K RAM upgrade. I loved that machine and learned BASIC programming with it even though I had only a composite monitor.
That machine, and the XT that followed, have been lost to time, but I've finally managed to find similar examples to the ones I had all those years ago, and I'm stoked to begin using them again. I do need to acquire a solution to power the PCjr however, as the original transformer has failed.
I've been lurking a while prior to registering, and have learned a lot already. Thanks to Mike and everyone for this site and sharing your knowledge with those of us who need it!
