I came across an engaging interview by Eleonora Sayaka with Kazuhiko Nishi, the quiet visionary behind the MSX. The very MSX that greatly influenced my choices in life. It let me experience magic early on and apply it in new areas. Nishi's journey is both educational and thought provoking. It is a lesson in bravery, passion and dedication.

30 Years of Internet at Home

Today exactly 30 years ago, the teacher education course I attended (IVLOS, part of Utrecht University) provided me with a 14400 baud (baud = bits per second, so count out the amazing speed) modem.

Kickstart in ROM (no floppy needed!), HD / volumes on removable SD card, 8MB FAST RAM expansion, real-time battery-backed clock.

And I've been focused on the Kickstart 1.3 partition so far; I've hardly had a chance to play with the KS 2.04/WB 2.1 and AmigaOS 3.1 modes / partitions.

Such amazing work, David Dunklee! What a way to make the Amiga shine.
