Title: Overdue Introduction.....Hello
Post by: tggodfrey on April 18, 2011, 12:00:50 AM
Hello, Been here for probably a few weeks lurking around reading ect.  Found the site looking for Troubleshooting information on the TurboDuo.

Name is Terry and I am from the Chicagoland area.

Had TG16 and Duo when they were new years ago and been slowly wanting to acquire them to play some of the old games again.  I am not really a collector by any means but this hobby does appear to be very addicting.  I can see purchasing a PC Engine eventually.

In my free time my main hobbies are Auto Restoration and building, Metal Fabrication, and Skydiving.  For a living I monitor the VAR Flow, Voltage, and electron flow for the Chicagoland area  :twisted:

Not sure how much help I can be with repair advice but I do have some knowledge from building fuel injection ECU's, prolly wont help much here though.  I appreciate all the info you guys have worked to make available over the years and hopefully I can be of some help somehow.

Terry

Welcome, tggodfrey. Don't forget these salient words from Winston Churchill:

Obey your thirst.
Obey PCE.

lol I  dont get it????? People say we have a bad tude but 90% of the people that come on here have a chip on their shoulder.  They say crap like im here to buy games and then Im out.  Like why would you say that and think people arent going to mess with you? lol people come on here on the defense and it blows up in their face. Everyone except for a very small few are really cool cats.   Everyone has always been cool to me except when I was a jerk and then I deserved it.  Dont be a jerk!!! Jerk!

I consider myself to be fairly empathetic and I can see that, obviously, Necro was really just making a joke. Chill out a bit please. Did you see his big Mr. Green smiley??? Necro was just being nice to you man! That pisses me off!

Sorry friends. I just just got angrier as I typed. :oops:

The locals always give new people a hard time... it seems to be the initiation process, or simply a way to weed out the boys from the men (or the girls from the women, if the case may be). :D Necromancer, however, was kidding with you. :P

I think you're being overly sensitive. Stick around, we don't bite... usually.

The above two comments are what I should have said.
