G'day,
I thought I'd have a go at seeing if the VCF blog capability would be of any use. I have a few projects I'm working on (don't we all) and this might be a good way to keep my meanderings in one place, rather than have them disappear off as old threads on various forums. I have a bunch of other hobbies outside of old computers so I'm not sure how often I'll update things, but this placemarker blog post is a start.
Things I'd perhaps like to cover are:
I'm really only a newbie at a lot of this stuff (particularly the DEC gear) and generally a lurker here on the VCF so if I post something obvious or even outright dumb then please be gentle
Steve.

Things I'd perhaps like to cover are:
- an IBM System/360 console display
- my attempts to get some low-end PDP-11s going someday
- some old peripherals (ASR33, DECwriterII, VT 220 terminals)
- a Fairchild F8 3850 development kit
- Compaq LTE notebook
- IBM 5150
- Apple ][
- Creed Model 9W Morse Reperforator (pre-war/WWII)
- Other electronic stuff
