Your one-stop shop for all files of a "computery" nature, that cover how to
rebuild a piece of computer hardware to do something it was
never meant to do, or to see someone go really deeply into a computing
subject that would cause most people to yawn and look for the snack table.
Since BBSes were on computers, it was natural for people who used BBSes
to focus on all aspects of these wonderful machines. The evidence of
their interest and their experimentation resides below.
Of course, nearly ALL textfiles are computer-related in some fashion, and
some subjects might fit here but fit even better in another section. For
example, you should most definitely check out the
<A HREF="/programming">programming</A>
and <A HREF="/apple">apple</A> sections as well, as you might not agree with
what I decided should go where.
