In this area you will find my own personal material, but also other mini-projects and articles wrote in the spirit of old-school genre!

I've searched through old stuff from as early as 1983 (I believe) and the following years. Basically it bears a-lot of memories preserved as-is, but also a continued effort to keep the spirit alive with new additions made in recent times.

A sort-of "lost and found" + keep forever scenario.

Currently focusing in creating Norway's first? complete archive (with actual magazines) that meant alot to computer nerds back in the 80 and 90's, just like myself.

Many scans are from my own collection, but also features donation of physical magazines during June/July 2014.

A deep-dive into the official Amiga 500 Promo video that was released in 1987. The amount of research done is quite extensive, so enjoy what I have discovered and documented so far.

During the recent years I have downloaded several thousand PDF scans of old Computer Magazines (just check my own section). Anyway, I always like those type-in pages of mysterious code snippets for both Commodore 64 and Amiga in all kinds of languages.

Presented here is a personal collection of type-ins that I find interresting.

Presented here are various monochrome pictures I printed out on my MannesMann Tally-MT81 and Star LC-10 Color printer (using black ribbon) somewhere in the years between 1992-1994.

My own collection of the complete set of physical Aminet Set CD's released from 1995 to 2002.

Scanned and OCR'd from Commodore Computing International May 1989 Issue.

Thought this could be handy to know whats actually going inside the standard startup-sequence of Workbench 1.2 and 1.3. As the original author did several writing and copying text errors regarding what was ACTUALLY written in a real Startup-Sequence, I had to clean up his mess. What an useless author that must have been!

Real hand drawings made by a young Stone Oakvalley…hmmm It do sounds like Luke Skywalker doesn’t it? :-)

These drawings as far as I can say are drawn in 1985-87, but could be 83-84 too some of them. At the time I was 9-13 years old.

Presented here are some personal scans from various Star Wars paper material such as; comic commercials, toy catalogs, homemade comic magazines and a audiobook with the tape recording dated around 1983-1986.

Just a teaser for a mini fun project I was working on today regarding a favourite game I used to play on Amiga back in the 90's.

I had some quick and huge progress on the game itself. Its quite interresting reverse engineering and studies :-)
