Hello from the Midwest!

[mbeethoven]

Hi!  I'm Mike (mbeethoven), and I am a music teacher, composer, and am looking forward to revisiting aspects of my childhood through retro computing!  Growing up, all I had was my mother's Tandy laptop from work (which she let me play with when she didn't need it), and at school I had tons of Apple II variants (e, c, and gs) to use, which went well into the mid 90s.  I was aware of the Commodore/Amiga lines, but never really had much chance to use them.  It's been interesting to learn about these platforms through David's & Christian's channels, and I'm excited to revisit the BASIC coding skills I once had, expand upon them, and learn some more (Assembly, perhaps?)!  This computer looks fantastic, and I can't wait to get my hands on one and start playing!  Thanks for pursuing the project, everyone involved!
