Default Hi there

I'm new here and I thought it might be a good idea to introduce myself. I'm Arnoud Haak, 27 and I live in Holland. I started playing old games again when I found our good old 286 at my parents attic. Nowadays I use a Pentium120 for it because the EGA monitor died. That's about it I suppose.

Meh... Back in the real old days, you had to call the squirrel half an hour before starting the damn thing. The little squirrel had to walk 25 miles only to get there, uphill all the way, and when he was finnaly here you had to coax him to jump on the little wheel inside your box and make him run again for hours without end...

... And that was only to be able to start the power supply!

You don't misunderstand that one with Amiga 500 or IMB PC 8080, do you? :cheesy:
