I have all but two of my cell phones dating back to 1995. Unfortunately I didn't keep the chargers for many of them so while they should be functional I can't really confirm that.

Also have a Mac SE from 1990. Booted the last time I tried (~2020). Somehow avoided the capacitor apocalypse.

Am finding many of my early Apple iPads won't charge and won't turn on at all even if plugged into a charger. Am assuming if the battery is hosed they won't do anything. As a general thing I've found that mobile devices won't turn on if the battery is dead or removed, seems constant across Nokia/Sony/Motorola/Apple.

I went through a frenzy of ditching old equipment about a decade ago, until then I had a collection of IBM Thinkpads dating to the late 1990s as well as some Apple PowerBooks as well as an Apple //e from mid 1980s. Ditched the older game consoles as well, unfortunately.
