I still remember the hype of the Pentium 3 in high school but was stuck on my Pentium 1 for the longest time. I ended up skipping to the Pentium 4 in college, but ended up with an AMD later. #vcfsocal

Packed up my Amiga 500 this weekend for transport to @vcfsocal this weekend. Will demonstrate some exciting modification to this machine including the PiStorm CPU accelerator & the newly made clear case. #vcfsocal #amiga #amiga500

Picked up this amazing contra like NES homebrew game “Copper Jacket” at #vcfsocal from @studiosmonsoon @monsoonstu. Completely programmed in assembly and the cart and box were homemade as well. I may have released on the switch, but the NES was my first goal as a kid. Maybe I’ll do the NES one day!
