Just giving a quick intro here... Hi, my name is Eric, I'm buried in a pile of 68k macs... partial list in the signature. It started with a Classic for $5....Plans include (once I find a larger hard drive, and get the ISO downloaded) turning a Quadra 605 into a Debian/68k server, and seeing if I can get OS/2 running on the DOS side of the Performa 640. The 68k Collection:
Performa 631
Performa 640/DOS
Quadra 800
Quadra 840AV x3
Many IIsi's
The Classic that started it all
3 Quadra 700s
Several Perfomra 63x's in refurbishment for distribution to the needy
And one emulated (Basilisk II.) Edited by - egmccann on 21 Oct 2002 21:45:58 |

Nice collection and welcome to the mla! _______________________

Howdy and welcome to the MLA!That is a realy nice collection, incase the other two's comments didn't already say that  --Obligatory ramble:

Now here comes the now-standard mail ramble, because I don't think its mentioned anywher else. Anyhue, I have a mail server set up that can ALMOST give you a 68kmla email addy.; But unfortuneatly ~Coxy cannot set it up as so, so until then, email would be: username@68kmail.no-ip.org
All for free to replace .Mac, just one of those welcoming things I do now.

yo! t-bird! I think you qualify for a special max. length variance to add that blurb to your sig, if ~fearlessadmin has a problem with it, you can clip it, but I don't think he'll disagree with me. jt  ™.

Or possibly add/turn on the "Sticky" feature so you can post it once and it'll stay at the top for all the new members to see. "One slip and down the hole we fall" Check out the new forum on the block at: http://www22.brinkster.com/originalstryder/db/ |

Format the text differently (colo/bold?) or even put the email offer above the "sig" part of your sig so it isn't automagically ignored by wetware based filtering routines.jt ™.

ARGH!You are only allowed 255 characters in your sig, and go figure it considres forum code part of those characters. I got it in, but had to take out my lil quote of life that I use *shrugs* oh well. I added asterics/bold/colour, its all or nothing! quote:
