Anyone remember Manic Miner & Jet Set Willie what about Asteroids. I am now showing my age as my first Computer was a ZX80.

I now feel decidedly old (but not ancient like some on here). I am now ready to be judged.
Certainly do..i was at the company that made many of these games end of last year, the staff now dream up games for the likes of Xbox live and are now owned by Microsoft I think.

Thwy havent forgoten the past thou, these and much more are shown off(and played) as you walk in the building..the average age of the staff made me feel older than the games..

And a ZX81 with 1k of RAM was state of the art.
my mate had one of those...I didnt get my first computer until the Dragon 32 (tandy clone)

seemed over the next few years I always backed the failing niche computer...until I eventually saved up for a 286 IBM clone smile

I dip in and out, and occasionally try to comment with decent data about the odd technical thing - especially if it involves racing.

But basically, I know my place, at the back, in the cheap seats biggrin

I've been challenged to a fight 3 times (in approx 300 posts). All of them have been in BB although BB probably only 1/3 of my posts - this must be a record.

I always find your posts informative and interesting, id like to see more, but id like to see more of the real you. They come over as rather sterile if you will (I mean that in the nicest possible way), your rather polite and possibly too informative. It would be nice if your personality popped through on posts, I imagine with your background that there must be a character in there.

Yes I know what you mean

Went in to the loft the other day and found my old school computer a BBC Master with a 5 1/4 floppy drive and my old ZX Spectrum with Horrice goes sking, Daily Thompsons Decathalon and some 'they sold a million' games

My younger family members (and even the misses) looked at me strange, misses said what the fks that
About 2years ago I found my old Atari 600 in the loft with its cassette tape drive and some games. everything still worked and I sold it on e-bay for almost as much as I originally paid for it. smile

I'd say that is a fair point, and I agree. I don't have a lot to do with BB anymore for exactly that reason, and ultimately I'm one of half a dozen or so individuals (most have now gone as well) who originally lobbied Ted to introduce a bike specific section in the first place, it's a shame but by their nature forums are fluid, living things that are constantly changing and evolving, live with it or move on it's the same choice we all face and certainly not worth getting uptight about. wink

well yeah, because we all post in here nearly everyday as where the rest of ph you might be in the lounge or general gassing. I really cant be arsed with many parts of PH, theres sections I dip in and out of but I rarely look at the rest of it much.

you have to expect when you see the same names popping up everyday and hearing what that individual is up to etc you kinda develop the content.

everyone on here gets on, unlike the rest of ph, it might seem a bit of a clique at first but once you start posting you will become part of that. Im hundreds of miles away from most of the guys down south but I still can have banter with them, even if ill never meet them.

compare it to other sites and id say bb is best, mind you I just got banned from Scottish bikers today.
