If what you liked most about retro computing is the music, SIDPLAY for Mac OS X emulates the SID audio chip from the Commodore 64 and plays music files of the era.

Of which there are thousands, including music from C64 games, tracks from the demo scene of the day, and even tracks from contemporary composers. A lot of similarity in the demo scene tracks makes much of the collection difficult to enjoy, but it's still impressive.
