Abandonware games and old times

Where does the passion for abandonware comes from? My childhood perhaps. What's left of that age? What do I miss so much? The hours spent developing Civilizations, the afternoons wandering for the underworld of Ultima. Here I am now, aged (well, not so much), an "abandonware enthusiast", ready to pay tribute to all those wonderful DOS games.

My collection

I own a few old DOS titles, not many, just enough to help me remember the old times when I look at those wonderful boxes.

I keep looking for games to buy and, once in a while, I find rare gems.
