More and more, I view my Classic Computer collection as a hinderance to building a proper darkroom. Oddly enough, the main purpose of my PDP-11/44 these days is to hold a couple old enlargers that I don’t use.
LOL! I wish I still had my De Vere 5x4 enlarger, but I've nowhere to put such a thing. Anyway, although I have access to some 5x4 Sinar equipment, the largest format I still have of my own is a couple of Mamiya 645s.
OT anecdote: Some years ago a colleague asked if I'd take her wedding photos. I used to dislike doing that in the 70s and 80s so I wasn't keen on taking the hundreds of shots that seem to be the modern fashion. She persisted, so I said I would if she bought me the 22 megapixel digital back for my Mamiya 645 Pro. OK, she said, so I suggested she ought to check the price, after which she declined :-)
