As a new member to the group I was told I should take a minute and introduce myself.
My name is Doug and although my heart will always be with New Jersey I currently reside in Fairless Hills, PA.
I found this group while researching parts for a Compaq Portable 1. It was the first computer I ever saw code on (at 8 years old) and I honestly had thought it had been sold in a yard sale many years ago.
I quickly read about VCF and was disappointed to see that I missed this years amazing lecture with Ken Thompson (which I immediately watched online).
My background in computers is a bit scattered but my education is in Software Engineering. Currently, I help maintain and develop a rather extensive Filemaker database.
I look forward to getting down to visit the museum and I'm very interested in signing up for the next repair workshop.
Pleased to meet you all, Doug P.
Welcome to the list. No point in making separate trips: workshop/museum are at the same place.
