    From Netsurge@77:77/5 to All on Fri Oct 30 01:24:40 2020
    One of the things that has been keeping me busy over the last little
    while is getting my small retro computer parts business off the ground.

    https://retrorewind.ca

    We are currently selling parts and components for the Commodore 8bit
    line of machines (C64, 128, Plus 4 etc) and will be adding Amiga stuff
    in the next little while.

    In case anyone is interested or cares.

    Very, very cool!

    Let me know when/if CoCo stuff will be available! I have my old one sitting
    in the attic and would love to figure out a way to do something with it.

    Eventually I will add other 8bit micros to the list. I'm pretty much making this stuff by hand or with a reflow oven so keeping lots of stock or
    offering lots of items is hard to do.

    Great, Frank comes back and now he's found a way to start taking my money
    even after this BBS stuff takes my time.

    Oooooh you're a crafty bastard!

    That was the plan the whole time. It just took me this long to put all of
    this together!

    Makes complete sense! I just figured I'm on the other side of the Lake and
    when border crossing is allowed again it'd be something to consider.

    Let us just hope that cross border travel opens up eventually.

    I saw that video, too and thought Franks testing products were SLICK man!

    I have an order in with Retro Rewind right now, and from the looks of it I'm going to be happy with the hardware that I ordered. :P
