Default Classic Computer for a Ham Shack

Hi Sam,

Actually I love your setup! When I as single I had an office scarily
similar to what you have now, and we even have alot of the same books!
I even have those two boxes of Suse 7.2 and 8.1 on my shelves, plus
OS/2, though mine's 3.0 Warp (still shrink wrapped btw).

When my wife and I married last year and she moved in, our offices got
consolidated and most of my books got put in the closet. It's fine for
the most part as most of the books I don't use, but it's still neat to
walk into an office and have floor to ceiling computer books Always
something on hand for those late nights when you can't sleep. hehe

A friend of mine has a C64 he's not using, and he plans on sending it
to me. Also another guy I met on QRZ is sending me his old cable he
used with the Tandy TRS-80 Coco 3 to do packet radio. It goes from the
RS-232 port to a TNC, so maybe I can get something going there.

So tons of fun stuff on the horizon!

Take care, and thanks for the pictures! I love'em!

Alex
