I bet you could find a Dot Matrix font for your injet or laser if you looked around.
As someone who lived through the dot matrix era, I'm just as glad that they are no longer with us. I've gotten spoiled by being able to read what I print without eyestrain. :-)
A projector with surround sound speakers for my living room.

A custom gaming pc built by Digital Storm to replace my HP Omen laptop. I've done quite a bit of research. I looked at Digital Storm, AVA Direct, Maingear, Falcon Northwest, and System 76. For a while I was eyeing Maingear, then Falcon Northwest, but Digital Storm has most of the options that I'd want.

An 85 inch 8k tv for enthusiast purposes.

A three set bookcase for my room so that I can replace my old bookcase and to better store the books that I have and more.
-
A Purple queen-sized mattress with an adjustable base to replace my old bed and twin-sized mattress and also my incline pillow.
Interesting question.
- Top of the line electric motorcycle. I think this would be the best from Zero Motorcycles, but I'd have to research (SR/S, I think).
- A metal 3D printer. I love the abilities of 3D printing, but I'm not very excited about putting a bunch more plastic in the world. Also, plastic is not very strong and I assume metal prints could be very strong and therefore much more useful. Print a new motor for my motorcycle? Yes, please! And so much more: my own hardware store (screws, etc.), furniture, jewelry, silverware, cooking utensils, grill parts, etc.
- Top of the line PC. $5k PC. It would be interesting to see what the bleeding edge looks like. Be nice to keep this because it would probably age well.
From what I can tell, Zero does that shit that Tesla and BMW do, where you have to pay to unlock features that your car/motorcycle already has. Which is a shame, because the idea of owning an electric motorcycle, particularly a highway-capable one, intrigues me.
Tbh, the jump from upper mid tier to top of the line PC is present but not overwhelming.
