Greetings Programs! I'm a lifelong tech geek with a passion for the golden era of electronics: 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s computers, retro gaming consoles, and vintage audio gear. Geek With Social Skills features restorations, upgrades, deep dives, and hands-on videos exploring classic systems and retro tech history.

This is the official website for the Geek With Social Skills YouTube channel.
Geek With Social Skills is a retro technology and vintage computing channel featuring classic computers, retro gaming consoles, restorations, upgrades, vintage audio gear, and hands-on tech history from the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s.
I'm into vintage technology from that era, including classic computers, video game consoles, audio gear, and music spanning rock, metal, alternative, and electronic styles.
My favorite retro 8-bit computer is the Commodore 64, and I still own my childhood C64 (Commodore 64) from Christmas 1983. You'll also see systems like the Apple IIe, Commodore PET, Tandy CoCo 3, Radio Shack TRS-80, Intel 486 PCs, and other vintage machines featured regularly.
Watch new videos regularly in the Geek With Social Skills video archive, featuring classic Apple, Commodore, Tandy, and other vintage computer systems.
I've been gaming since early consoles like Pong, Atari 2600, NES, and Vectrex, all the way through to modern systems like the Nintendo Switch and Xbox.
New videos are posted regularly on YouTube and featured here on the site.
