Mostly vintage/retro computers and electronics including the Dick Smith 
Wizzard and VZ200/300.
Built my own Z80 computer out of junkbox components dubbed the "Junkbox 
VZ" and prototyped a Wizzard multicart plus various projects over the 
years for C= and other computers.
http://users.on.net/~clockmeister for some of it.
