Hey from Belgium

Post by niconoe »

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!
