It's more like saying high speed dial up is making a comeback because people miss the handshake sound. Those of us who've moved to broadband will never look back, or understand the sentiment.
I spent years with a 300 baud modem connection between my ADM-3A terminal at home and the DEC20 mainframe at work, staring in the late seventies. Later, it was a VT100 terminal with Tektronix 4010 graphics, at 1200 baud. Then, I got a 386SX - wow!
I'd rather not go back. Although, I'd happily use a DEC20; its TOPS20 operating system was the most easy to use, that I've yet seen.
I currently use a mix of DSLR (5DS,6D,SL2) and mirrorless (M5,M6). I'll buy into the R-series when they release something that will produce a meaningful increase in image quality. Like, a 100MP camera.
