Vogons is a great place with lots of experts on vintage software and hardware. Definitely recommend it to anyone interested in either running old stuff or just on history/tidbits/how-things-worked like that post.

Just don't read their poetry.

Honestly the Vogons were only the third worst poets in the universe. If you can read awful human poetry like anything by Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings, they won't faze you.

In the original radio series, the name was Paul Neil Milne Johnstone… who was an actual schoolfriend, or at least was at school with, Douglas Adams. He didn't appreciate being name-checked in the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy so it had to be changed. I believe that if you closely watch the fake video graphics in the BBC TV series, you can see some of Adams' best efforts to remember Johnstons actual "poetry" on screen.

I tried once, but I had to gnaw my own legs off to survive.

They also have a collection of old drivers that have become hard to find with time.

It was an amazing read! I still have so much more digging to do from it.
