Some need an actual old hardware for research, for improving emulators, for testing compatibility, for porting specific software. I would guess it may have more uses, but those are ones I know of. And for display in a museum, too
NASA needed 8086 chips till they retired the shuttle. They were paying good $$$ for the things as well. Dunno if anyone would need those things anymore at this point.
What’s the point of the laptop?

Ahh thanks. I thought he meant it about a singular laptop.
They aren’t manufactured, you have to buy them from people second hand.
