I haven't done a great deal of "Retro" or "Vintage" computing since those machines weren't vintage, started off on an 8088 XT (I think it was the legendary IBM 5150 which is another thing I wish I never tossed).
I've partially built a 6502 emulator even though the most I've done with them (and cousins) were NES and Atari.
I have a TI/99 silver edition or whatever laying around with a bunch of tapes. I still want to record those to WAV or figure out a good way to back them up but that's a pretty low priority overall.
What brought me here was the fact I have a big pile of old IDE disks with games and other software I wrote ~30 years ago hanging around the freespace of these CHS drives and I'd like to get that code back, if the drives let me, and put it up on GitHub or similar to preserve things I did when I was a child and early adult.
These days I work in information security, in particular application security. It's a cool field, but does leave me wishing I had some further EE or CS experience on a more "vintage fundamental" level
