Hi there,
I am from bavaria, sitting on my working desk, an Biedermaier deskt, between some vintage stuff, like Amiga500s, east german KC85 and my Octane. Just to mention my MD, MC, CD players, my Technics 1200, all wired together at my vestax mix pult. Filling the holes with some other computers, like Thinkpads from T40 to T460s and …and some MacBook(Pro)s . So much to do but almost no spare time beside family. Anyway I just want to say hello to you…
 
My KC has usb support, which is better than my SCSI only driven Octane. Beside of this forgot to mention my Indy and another Octane in the basement. I started with Amiga, first bought by Jugendweihe Money. My father took a KC at home from work in holidays sometimes. While studying I had first contact with an Indy, which was really cool. Current notebooks and PCs are doing great and fast, but they completely miss any soul, like vintage stuff is offering…

Edit: With apologies, I no longer wish to have involvement with SGUG or SGI communities in general,
and have also chosen to remove all of my content. Many things have changed since I co-founded, named, and ultimately
then left SGUG. There are many good people around, to whom I apologize for frustrating by removing these things, and
also many petty people that over the years whittled down both the enjoyment as well as sense of obligation I used to
feel to anyone else regarding what was ultimately just a hobby. Unfortunately one of the latter now writes the rules
and so it is time for me to take my things and go.

This message will replace all of my previous forum posts because deleting threads that I started would have removed
other peoples' posts.
