I've lurked for a long time, read the posts, held back, not quite sure how I could contribute.
I even remember Chris (Exxos) from the early days, when he started his own diskmag I'm really happy he stuck with this and here we are today.
What pushed me into registering here was my slightly cut short attendance at the second Cyber Legends meeting in sunny Northampton. I'll put my own input when the post-event thread appears, but needless to say, it was one of my favourite Sunday afternoons of recent times.
I'm still not sure how I can contribute, not being a hardware tinkerer, but I'm sure I'll find a way.
See you later.
Chris H.

Re: Greetings from a long time Atari Scener
Nice to meet you on Sunday I was mostly talking to your friend (in the floppy disk T-shirt) he was saying you guys go to all the demoscene 'parties' in mainland Europe and have programmed demos in the past? Does he post here also?CiH wrote: Sun Oct 08, 2023 7:19 pm I've lurked for a long time, read the posts, held back, not quite sure how I could contribute.

Icky was saying we need more software developers for all the hardware being developed.
