Title: Greets from the UK
Post by: Zeb on April 27, 2008, 01:43 PM
I've just been updating my website (link below) and ended up checking the referers after I'd finished and found this site.

Although I've been a Commodore 64 owner as well as Amiga 500 and 1200 I've no longer got those machines and now only have this custom-built Windows thing.

On the C64 I mainly played games - BASIC was too much of a pig but after the Amiga turned up I got stuck into coding on a serious level and of all the languages I have to say assembler wins.

Was a member of a few scene groups releasing utilities. Tried coding a trackdisk slideshow with music from our Norwegian musician (hi Thrust!) but didn't get much satisfaction from it although it did get finished.

Have been building a collection of software to download from my website. As I don't have anywhere near enough web space as I'd love to have I can't put everything online so if anything can't be found please ask on the contact me page.

I have about 17.5GB of games (unzipped ADF) and 1.2GB of applications (zipped ADF)

Don't feed badly. Several of our members get by just fine - and make some wonderful contributions - just using an emulator on Windows.

Of course, there are a few of us old die-hards who insist on trying to keep our rusty old hardware limping along. :)

I wish I had some of that "rusty old hardware" on which to test new software.  VICE isn't too bad, although it's a terrible resource hog.
