Hi,
I'm a French guy currently living in Hong Kong.
Used to have a CPC6128 as a kid, with color monitor & a Multiface II.
Spend so much time playing games, watching demos, learning to program basic and a bit of asm, drawing stuff with OCP art studio, poking around disks with Discology & MFII...
I once went to the Amstrad Expo in Paris, the year the + machines were launched.
I sold everything in the mid-nineties.
A couple years back my interest in the Amstrad machines was rekindled, I now have a boxed GX4000 with a bunch of cartridges, a boxed 6128+, and repro MFII.
The 6128+ needed a bit of work, ram chips were fried (pink screen) so I replaced them, now all is good except the disk drive is not working - considering to replace it by HxC drive emulator.
Very interested in getting a C4CPC eventually.
I'm probably one of the only owner of those machines here in HK ?
My previous ISP seemed to be blocked by cpcwiki.eu so I didn't spend too much time here as I needed to use a proxy... my new ISP is faster, cheaper & cherry on the cake is not blocked by cpcwiki 8)
Cheers
Welcome mate!
Art studio and Discology are in my heart too ;D
Hi from France :D
Hello! I am from Spain but I went not so far away, I live in UK :)
Hello mate! Welcome here :)
Over the past month there were just 15 visits from HK, so you may be the only one indeed :) Regarding your ISP being blocked, indeed we used to block certain territories because of spammers etc, but lately I've dropped the practice, so that may be it.
Really nice to hear you're getting into the CPC again, and I hope we'll be seeing more of you!
