Hello all, another bloke from Oz here :)

G'day all

I have looked at this site quite a bit and I thought I'd finally register.
I started off with a C64 in 1984 which eventually got me into the Amiga scene.
I used to run a Melbourne based BBS called The Skoikan Grove (1991 - 1993), which later was handed over to a regular user called Sykoe to run after I left the Amiga scene and went PC

(I still remember all the copying done of the BBS files onto zip disks).
Well there was something I always missed about the Commodore machines so now I have gone back in time, minus the Delorean, and got myself a C64, A500+ and an A4000. I never sold my CD32 from the day, and still use it now.

Welcome mate!, looks like we might have an Ozzy invasion on EAB the way things are going lol!

And this- "started off with a C64 in 1984 which eventually got me into the Amiga scene", that's exactly how i started of back in 84!

Thanks people

Yes, the C64 may have started it for a lot of people. They were great days. I still love SID tunes

I was so happy when I got hold of one again. Now, I have to get back to cleaning the yellow brick road
