Funny, I did exactly the same. Bought 486 off the ebay, got me some Turbo C and bunch of old books on computer graphics. It's very satisfying feeling vs even working on some hobby ML projects or some other new web fancy thing.
My day job(web dev) is like everyday the same house is flooded with sewage and I need to clean it quickly and also put a smile on my face and tell how great is that and that I managed to do it all today and suggest new ways of cleaning sewage better.
