Hello everyone, Tim from the Netherlands here. I have a MSc degree in Computer Science and been fiddling - both profesionally and privately - with many kinds of soft- and hardware since the mid 80's. Fondly remember creating a PCB for expanding the memory of my first computer - an Atari 800 XL - to 256 Kb of ram and writing ramdisk software in 6502 assembly to exploit it. The thing still works, we had a nice retro-computing gaming frenzy with the family over the recent holiday weeks.
