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.
