New person enters the forum.

Post by erique »

Hello World!

New joiner here, but an Amiga enthusiast since many years.
It all started with the A500 in 1990, and over the years I managed to build up a fine set of dust collectors ( / memorabilia).

I've recently been dabbling with retro-computing within the realms of FPGA "re-implementation", but occasionally one of the real machines I own gets to make a guest appearance.

I used to be active on the Amiga demoscene in the 90s, but nowadays the 68k code I write is mostly limited to simple device drivers and such.

Ok, I guess that's all - now I'll go back to lurking again ;)

Welcome!

Sounds like you are too modest. Device drivers are pretty hardcore coding! You transitioned nicely from the demoscene :lol:

Welcome erique! Your device driver skills are much appreciated--programming/coding is so much easier used than written. :)
