You can often find me enjoying the finer aspects of collecting, preserving and learning about the history behind our past technological innovations. As a hobby I enjoy building and tinkering with computers, especially retro computers of the Windows 3.1 through XP era’s. Notable pieces of my hardware collection include my massive horde of MIDI modules ranging from the Roland MT-32, Yamaha MU 2000 EX, Korg NX5R, and many more. As well as my multiple retro computer builds filled with various awesomeness like classic Sound Blasters and Voodoo video cards. My most prized electronics are my Amiga 4000T computer and my Sony BVM 24AE1WU monitor.
