The dads of two guys I knew remodelled their entire basements to accommodate "the computer." Now writing this down, it sounds like they bought VAXes or something, but it was just plain old Pentiums, plus printers and stuff.

They were just looking for an excuse to remodel the basement and “the computer” made it seem like something they were doing for the family.
