My name is Yiannis. I am an electronics and radio engineer. I am also a radio amateur (sv1eez). I own a business which during a good part ot he 90's was selling and repairing Amiga's. I also had a creative department based on Amigas. We used to produce ads for television and various customers using 2D and 3D software. Recently I watched some you tube videos and caught the Amiga bug again. Fortunately I stashed my Amigas and lots of Commodore hardware in the vault. They were waiting there for me for a little more than 20 years. To my surprise most of the hardware was working and I fixed almost everything that was not working. Almost all of my floppy disks are still readable. So now I own several C64's and Amiga's plus lots of hardware that work flowlessly. I even bought some of the new hardware that came out during the last year so I could replace my SCSI hard disks. The Amiga I like most is A2000. I own 2 of them loaded with various add on's and I do love them. Repairing my Amigas was a lot of fun and brought back good memories.
So hi to all AB members. If you are Greek or planning to visit Greece just drop a message.
 
Hi and welcome!
A vault you say? interesting.... :smdevil:

(ετοιμάζομαι για ριφιφί!)
 
Old computers vault (we are one of the oldest remaining computer shops, now we sell most ham radio and radio comms equipment). Vault contains many treasures including Oric Atmos, ZX Spectrum and many many Amigas, some 1084's and similar, C64's, 1541 plus more drives and many cubic meters of C64 and Amiga magazines.
 
Awesome to see old elite Greek users :)

Nice to find some fellow radio amateurs here. Hope to meet you on the air. Perhaps it's time to make some sat images receive interface for C64. I think there was some in the past.
