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, and 1990s.
I'm into 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s technology including 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 from Christmas 1983. You'll also see systems like the Apple IIe, Commodore PET, Tandy TRS-80 CoCo 3, Intel 486 PCs, and other vintage machines featured regularly.
Watch new videos regularly on YouTube and explore classic systems including Apple, Commodore, Tandy, and more.
I've been gaming since early consoles like Pong, Atari 2600, NES, and Vectrex through to modern systems like the Nintendo Switch and Xbox.
