Hello my Rose-Tinted friends! Welcome to The Retro Shack where we look back at the golden age of computing and where I dive into retro computers (and some 'new' ones!) Some of these machines I've lived with and know well, some I've never owned before, and some that I never even knew existed. I hope you enjoy your visit - drop me a line in the comments and please subscribe if you like my content. Follow the shack on twitter: https://twitter.com/The_Retro_Shack P.S. If you have any donations, please email [email protected] with details - and my thanks in advance!
