Info

Join me as I fumble around the innards of 40-year-old tech. Relax, put your feet up and watch me build and fix stuff. 
I especially like repairing vintage computers from the 1980's, along with upgrading them with period correct and modern technology. I don't always get it right, but I do have a lot of fun along the way!
