    All the digital age has created is a bunch of social media selfie obsessed manic depressives, who want to moan about everything. And besides from that you leave a digital footprint that is bigger than any polar bear thumping across the Arctic chasing penguins that don't actually exist in that area in the real world!

    If the government had micro chipped and installed trackers on us all there would have been outrage from human rights, yet we all quite happily accept our mobile phones which are our biggest minute by minute trackers. Add to that the most CCTV controlled piece of land in the world it's a facists dream island. But other than all that, another ****e thread <whistle>

    Frightening the amount of personal info that some people freely share on the internet and then threaten legal action when somebody finds it out.

    Still got working Sega Megadrive 1 and 2, Game Boy, SNES and N64, Atari Jaguar etc...

    Liked to collect consoles as a kid and kept them all over the years. Haven't opened the boxes to start them up for a while but they all worked last time they were tried!

    Yeah, got an old MSX computer with the tape player required for loading games, a C64 and tape player and hundreds of games for both.
    A Gameboy, Megadrive 1st edition, Snes 1st edition and loads of games for all three.

    Don't know why though, they'll never make a comeback.<laugh>

    The C64 was responsible for me learning html and Basic and Logo which gave me a leg up later in life.
