Yep.  Still use my C-64 for certain things.

I can imagine some musicians, scrolling thorough menu after menu on some
tiny little two line LCD display on their synth cursing and saying,
"remember when synths had knobs?"

I spend hours plugging and unplugging cables and twisting knobs on this
MOTM thing.

I have never in all my years seen such a wonderful and affordable analog
modular synth....

Sorry for your troubles Paul.  We ALL appreciate your efforts.  Turn the
computer switch to the OFF position and go have a great vacation.  We will
all be here dreaming up endless new modules for you to build while you are
gone.
