If you follow on Bluesky or X, you know that. That I’ve just had my desktop PC fully rebuild to get it running Windows 11 Pro! The PC it’s self, has not been working for over 2 years…
Now it’s fully back working. I’ve been having fun finding some of my older videos!
So here are two clips from videos both filmed back in May 2013.
