Hello!
I'm now joining this forum. I'm doing a lot with retro computing, mainly C64 and Amiga. I also do Desktop Publishing and graphics work. A speciality are icons. I have a fondness for music from tape. Since the CD we are in the age of skip-skip-skip, what you don't like, away with it. Spooling is always annyoing, so you simply listen. I have the most systems here, of course the Compact Cassette and Reel-to-Reel, but also DAT and DCC. I also have weirder systems like Sony Elcaset and Stereo-Microcassette.
Especcially interesting is my OSx86 history. I was one fo the first guys in the scene, joining InsanelyMac in March 2006. My first system was working in May 2006, based on an AMD Athlon 3400+ Socket 754. My first version was Tiger 10.4.4. It was an amazing feeling, seeing the first time the Apple logo on the Ex-Windows-machine. I sat in front of an 21" IBM CRT, with flickering 60 Hz, no LAN, no SATA, no Audio. But it was still amazing. Because lots of people often had crashes, I used from the beginning always two system partitions. The main one and a small recovery partition. This saved me a lot of installations. Still - I tested more then 50 DVD images and made more than 150 full installations up to Leopard.
My post amount in InsanelyMac isn't too big. The problem was that it was more and more about Intel systems. Then InfiniteMac was founded, and I soon was moderator. With more than 1200 posts and lots of guides it was a great time.
Greets, naquaada.
