       One thing that I never understood about Z5 and Z6 demise is that at least   
   here, in Latin America, we have a strong retrocomputing community, so every   
   now and then someone from our glorious past joins back to the family. In a   
   slow pace, but steady, we were able to add 10 systems to Argentina, Brazil and   
   Panama in the last 5 years.    
      
       It's been a while since Z5 and Z6 are gone... There should have been   
   someone on that area willing to come back...    
      
   ... I put a dollar in one of those change machines. Nothing changed.
