Hi there!
I've visited this wiki many times and made changes often without logging in. The German pages are excellent, English needs some work, those pages are very "German" in the language and sometimes hard to understand. So I correct here and there.
Anyway, I'm Swedish, born 1974, educated Electronics Engineer, working as Service Engineer in a PCB factory. Have had C64 since 1987, before that a VIC-20 (VC-20), now also a proud PET 2001-8C owner since after Christmas last year (2015). Have a large collection of the 1976 System Fairchild games and consoles (Luxor, SABA, ITT, Nordmende etc) as well as NES, SNES, N64, PS, PS2, PS3, Wii, Xbox, Xbox360, Amiga 500, Amiga 2000, Amiga 600... Mostly grown up with Commodore, other stuff came later.
I enjoy tinkering with non working stuff, not so much gaming as when I was younger, currently trying to get the PET in order, at the moment working on a tape drive that records well but has very poor playback, would be nice to get the 1977 tape drive board going again - even if I have to swap all parts... ;-)
Like to keep things original, not so keen on "modding", spend too much time in retro gaming/computer groups on Facebook than actually doing anything with the retro-stuff.
Partly or fully responsible for the following hardware if anything is familiar: U17 PLAnkton - PLA replacement for the C64 saV64 - voltage guard for the C64/VIC-20CR System Fairchild Multi-Cart - self explanatory Pac-Man for System Fairchild Reverse engineer of LOAD-IT, manufactured and sold by commodore_seller and others. LumaFix64 - with thanks to the forum64.de Giana Sisters and Bruce Lee II cartridges - a few at least ...
Also got a handful of entries on csdb.dk
I usually use the alias e5frog where possible.
