Serious question, and I know "to each his own", but what is everyone's draw to EMs?

Personally I feel they're slow and boring to play. Just too old school compared to modern solid state pins.

What do people who collect EMs find so cool about them? (this isn't a smart-ass thread either)

Quoted from dothedoo:

I take it you missed Expo 2014

If I lived closer than 9 hours away, perhaps I would've made it.

Great write ups on EMs.

Are there written rule sets anywhere, even if very short?

What's the up keep on them with all the relays, etc. in comparison to a dmd upkeep?

Really going to try to spend a little more time with some EMs at the Ohio Show in March.
