Hello everyone,

I found this forum while Googling for info about the Olivetti PC1 which I've recently acquired. I won one of these PCs in a computer magazine's prize draw when I was about 11 (around 1988), so I'm enjoying reliving those early days again. That PC led to me learning C and eventually my career as a software engineer.

My main retro interest though is Commodore 8-bit machines. My collection contains six C64s (mixture of breadbin and 64C), one flat C128, both 1541 and 1541-II disk drives and a 1084S monitor. I've been gradually restoring these over the last year - recapping, cleaning, replacing broken SID chips and so on. I just wish I had more time to play with them!

Looking forward to spending time on the forums and drawing on everyone's expertise!

Chris
