Hey I am a new user from Belgium.
I grew up with Ataris, and luckily I still have the two family machines: my 1040 STFM (with a burned PSU) and my dad's Mega STE (which is in great shape, only the HDD failed a long time ago). I now have a bit of free time in my evening and therefore try to restore those old machines, among many other stuff (game consoles, amiga 2000, ...)
Happy to meet other passionate people here!

Re: Hey from Belgium
Hmm... burned PSU. I wonder what happened there.
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.

Welcome to the forum!
It will be interesting to follow your progress with restoring the machines to their former glory! Good luck
