  Very true. Had many bikes, usually broken at time of acquisition. Most rusted out under the house. Went bikeless for a few years then got one driven in need (home work commute in an inner city just too long to be a quick walk, and car use ridiculous) and have kept it in reasonable condition since. Meantime, down on the riverside, a peleton of recreational Men in Lycra ride cycles where a single carbon fibre wheel would buy my car... To your point. An sbc I got in a kickstarer died when the Ukrainian devs went into a war. 3 years later somebody has worked out how to attach to boot prom and serial, interrupt boot with a short on the mainboard and get into the locked boot sequence. So hoarding those dead sbc and cables can come good!
