Introduce yourself. Tell people why you are interested in vintage computers and what (if anything) you've got.

Well actually from Blenheim, but living in Christchurch. I'm here because I have a love for microcomputers from the 80s. I've owned and/or used a few of them, but the Amstrad CPC 464, and it's manual, taught me program and holds a special place in my heart. Hoping to find one some day too, just for nostalgia.

Welcome to the forums Geoff,

Do you own any of these vintage computers today?

Hi, Thank you. The only microcomputer I own at the moment is Arduino Uno and a couple clones of it, not at all vintage, but it captures the simplicity of the past. I'm definitely going to start working towards a collection though.
