Hi,
I thought I'd write a introduction now that I've been here a while
I'm just your average retro-computing-nerd.
Started out with a ABC-80 (a TRS-80 inspired swedish computer) in the mid eighties. Moved to Commodore 128 round about -87-88, kept using that until I got my first PC (a Victor 286) in -92. After that it was all various PC-models.
About five years ago I realized that I missed my old C128 and bought one on a Swedish auction site. When looking for the C128 I saw some other old computers and there was the start of my collection.
Now I actively collect old computers. Preferably boxed ones. I don't have as much time to play with them as I'd like, but I always have one, two or three oldies up and running in my play room ready for gaming or programming.
I'm also a huge fan of the game Ghosts 'n Goblins (and its successor Ghouls 'n Ghosts). I have a lot of ports of this game and looking for more versions. The biggest gap in the GnG collection is the missing Arcade Cabinet. I'd really want one of those, but there is no room at the moment.
Some not so useful links:
Link to a list of my Collection
Link to my unfinished collection web site
Anyway, I just wanted to say hi, to you all. I think I might enjoy this place!
