Modern Classic
Featuring tech, audio/video, computers, games and gadgets that stand the test of time. Not simply a retro or nostalgia channel, I'll be featuring new products that I consider game-changers too. I am a pilot, so I like flight sims! New videos whenever I can.

Who am I? I'm just a guy who flies for a major airline. In past lives I've worked in marketing for a major game publisher (you've seen my stuff), the same at a major TV channel, used to write for a major video and PC game web site (it's defunct now), and years ago sold home electronics and computers for a living. I hopefully know what I'm talking about most of the time, although I make no guarantees!
I also play guitar and bass, if you're looking to start a band and need someone.
