Hello from Wisconsin

Hello Everyone:

Been into Commodore since 1985. C128 upgraded to an A500 in 1989.

I have been using emulation off and on the past dozen or more years now. Seems like I am seasonal retro gamer. During the spring, summer and fall I am an avid outdoorsman, but come winter in northwest Wisconsin I tend to settle down and do a lot of retro tinkering.

My handle is URS RETRO... URS is short for Upstairs Room Software. Back in the glory days of the C64/C128 and Amiga, a few of my friends and I had a user group named Upstairs Room Software - mainly because all of us had our computers in our rooms that were on the second floor of the homes we lived in.

We would trade game purchased back and forth and have mini gamer conventions a couple times a month where we would meet at someone's house.

Hi from Texas!

I too have a seasonal pattern in my retro activity. I'm most productive in the summer while sheltering from the midday heat.

Hi from great lakes region - Michigan. (also known as underworld )

Seasonal gaming @ our age seems like normal thing... I too spend more time during rainy / snowy /windy days in front of either TV for some movie show or (retro) gaming.

Greetings and welcome to the Forum!
Me myself is a newly awakened Amiga addict from Sweden. I'm posting this from my A600 that has been resurrected from the closet after 30 years with a lot of help from the people on this forum. I hope you too will benefit from the vast pool of knowledge on this awesome forum

Cheers!
