Hello, my name is Rees and I’m a vintage computing and retro gaming enthusiast and tinkerer from the UK. You may know me from Instagram, BlueSky, or maybe even YouTube.
Or maybe not.
The Purpose of this website
On this site I’ll go into more detail on my various projects and share the technical info behind what I do. I’m sharing this because Google and other websites are invaluable in helping me to tinker with my hardware projects, so I needed a place to document for the benefit of others who might find themselves in my situation.
Here are my documented projects and guides that may or may not have videos yet, including the most complete history of the cancelled Atari Panther console anywhere online! Where I use defunct websites from the Wayback Machine, I try to rescue and reconstruct them and host them in my website archive.
This site is deliberately compiled to lightweight static HTML and hosted on GitHub Pages to keep the information within as available as possible for as long as possible. I also try to contribute stuff to The Internet Archive.
