      @OldSchoolRetroGamer - i had a google account (google groups) long before there was email and i used that same acount to register a youtube account (going on 7 years now) then recently (about the time they launched google plus) they required gmail account (my already registered google account wasn't good enough). that is what i was told by support.

      Forgot to mention: I still have an RCA Studio II with all carts as well as a Fairchild Channel F also with all carts. I managed to hotwire a 2600 joystick into the Fairchild since one of the controllers was broke when I bought it.

      something like that, yes. mostly purchased from various SIGs that were closing up shop around the country back in the mid to late 90's - most were rare gems: bbs dumps, newsletters, collections, etc.

       

      probably had about 300 disks of printshop icons alone. another 100-150 disks of midi trackers (which if I ever get back I need to pass onto Bill Kendrick)
