Re: Time to bring out the festive avatar
Maybe I need to design one. 
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.

By the time I get around to changing it Christmas will be over... I think it was like three months to change it back last year

Re: Time to bring out the festive avatar
Hmm...looks like I'll have to dig out & fire up the old PC to rescue my festive tweak to the avatar....
Given that it's a 14 year old Win 7 box, if I power it up now, it might actually be usable by lunch time

Edit: Well, that was a quicker boot than I remember...must be the lack of updates for Win 7 nowadays
