Very excited to introduce myself to you all. I appreciate all the dedication. I really like the browser integration for emulation, but can't wait for the dev kit to arrive. Cheer!
Enjoy this little ditty...
Deep in the circuits, where signals take flight,
Untold adventures gleam in digital light.
A promise slumbers, a retro game's fate,
Born of a YouTuber's memory, sealed in silicon's gate.
Commander X16, a project conceived anew,
With code and circuits, a vision imbued.
Through loops and variables, a world will unfurl,
With pixels dancing, in a pixelated swirl.
From RAM and ROM, characters emerge with grace,
In sprites and textures, stack two for a face.
With POKE and PEEK, their stories unfold,
Of heroes brave and bold, tales to be told.
So let the code flow, a SID chip's sweet sound,
In FOR loops and GOSUBs, digital ground.
But mysteries whisper, as circuits hum low,
A digital playground, where legends may grow.
Loud Spark! A tremor, a chilling presence near,
A whisker's touch, igniting sparks out the rear.
Magic smoke ascends, blue schmoo within backlit bright,
CRT crackles in darkness, extinguishing the light.

Re: Hello from Seattle, WA
Is there a tune that goes with that ? 
Re: Hello from Seattle, WA
The structure of the poem mostly is Iambic Pentameter. There are many castle age songs which would fit. For an adhoc reference, may I suggest: Modern Major General - as performed by Homer's drinking buddy turned astronaut in an early "The Simpsons" episode.
