Hi all,
I'm 31 years old and from northern Sweden. When I was a kid and teenager (late 90's, early 00's) I was big into collecting computers and loved just futzing around with them. I had a VIC-20, C64, C128, Amiga 1000, Amiga 600HD, Amiga 4000, DEC VAXstation, Mac IIvx, IBM PS/2's, 386 and 486 systems... I think at around 16 years of age I had 12 or 13 computers in my room! These were the days when people would pretty much give stuff like this away, or you could find them in dumpsters...
Unfortunately (?) I grew up and throughout the years I got rid of most of the above except the Commodore 8-bit stuff and my Amiga 600HD.
Lately, nostalgia has struck and I've gotten back into building and playing around with old hardware, mostly PC (486 era) right now, but all old systems interest me to some degree. Came here to look for random parts I can't seem to find locally.
Glad to be here, see ya around
