Re: I might be a bit quiet #2 ...
Yeah, he's got a whole retro-stables to build. :-)
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

:cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
Finally got the keys to the new place at 19:30 this evening. What a nightmare it has been getting here and still I have no stuff as its coming out of storage and will be arriving Wednesday.
I could go on and on about all the crazy utilities company conversations I have had including the broadband to transfer or move over. I think the world has gone crazy in a scripted manner to a point I managed to get them tied up in knots to get out of extra charges etc. for a few of them.
But I have the keys and we will be in before Christmas.
