Hello all, I stumbled in here while trying to find forum for sharing old ansi graphic art. i also found https://16colo.rs although it doesn't seem to be geared toward discussion in the way i was looking for.

And I should say, I was more of a mac guy back in the day, although I do remember many of the DOS titles as well.

Either way, I'm very much interested in retro-computing. Also cross-platform computing: in recent years i have gotten into fixing up slightly older+broken computers and installing linux. It's not quite retro-vintage, although it's not to say the older systems & titles don't have a special appeal...

Anyway, here's a little unicode art thing i made(in case you don't know about #Right2Repair):

...also, it looks like I got overoptimistic with my characters and my username got mangled: it should read 'theSleUth'. sorry for the confusion. i guess if it can be fixed that would be nice, although it doesn't really matter that much; just note, i tend to recycle names across forums.
