Hey Dada another oldie ish here lol .. 30 this year :eek: .. I want your room with all them computers lol ...started off playing my dads Spectrums lol.. then I got the Amiga 500 and later the Amiga A1200 AGA with extra ram and a 500MB HDD and even a moniter! lol... my m8 even got a graphics accelarator for his Amiga 1200 lol think it was called an 030 or something.

I remember saying that Amiga's where the best and i would never need a PC .. until i seen my dads friends PC and my mind was blown with the graphics difference in games and stuff lol.

so in high school i got a few hundred pounds for staying on.. and with help from my dads m8 .. me and my dad built my first system :) The rest is history .. been building myself bigger and better machines ever since :)

welcome to the forums and hope to see you along at the next LAN!

That's really, really cool :)

By all means the more the merrier! We need a few more people to pay in advance for us to be able to afford the hall, but after that it's smooth sailing!

Computing is still very much a big thing for me, except my toys have gotten bigger! :D

Oh dear what have i started.... a Retro Thread ?

Trab gonna need a hand with some graphic editing me thinks !

Ok here is a more later picture of how the Computer room looks nowadays
as you can see serious updates made to PCs and decor ( leftover from Battlefield 1942 and BF2) When we had a Clan thing going on, I was selling some old graphics cards on Ebay so I thought a shot like this would help me out. And it did :)DSCF1165.jpg Trabs PC is far left corner 5 along from right to left Next to mr T on the wall. Who really does PITY FOOLS !!
