The future is fleeting, the present is ephemeral, but the past is forever.

dmx (aka. dmx87)

A geezer living in Oslo, Norway. I grew up with the C64 and Amiga microcomputers, except I missed the memo on growing up. Retro gaming, coding, reverse-engineering, hacking, music + fx on vintage-, retro- and contemporary systems are some activities that keeps me relatively sane.
