Introducing: Thomas Hillebrandt

[Thomas Hillebrandt]

Hi, ev'rybody!

Well...Since Erik has been nice enough to set up this forum for all us super-geeks, I guess I'd better join in...

Personal info...
Name: Thomas Hillebrandt
Age: 27
Nationality: Danish (as in, from Denmark - not as in pastry)
Job: None, currently
Hobbies: Composing music and collecting old computers.

I started collecting in the summer of 2001, when I got my in-laws' old IBM PS/2 model 60 and their Commodore VIC-20. At that time I already had my own old Amiga 1200 (with German keyboard) and a Commodore 128D I'd picked up at a flea-marked to be able to play my old C64-games again.

Things have escallated since.
My humble collection can be seen at http://computer.thomashillebrandt.com, although that page only shows a little over half my collection. I'm just so lazy, I can't seem to be bothered to update the page ...

Anyway.. I hope this forum will make me knew friends, and at least give me an excuse to talk about old dusty machines with someone who not only understands them, but also appreciates them..

Welcome!

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to the VC Forum!

That's one impressive collection (especially considering your storage constraints) and I really like your website design!

I'll be adding a link to your site the next time I update mine.

Enjoy the forums!

I've only tried an emulated version of the
VIC-20. Interesting machine.

Heh! I've been so lazy, I haven't done a
web page!
