Welcome to my user page!

Notes

• I have known BetaArchive since a long time ago, but I only registered here in 2021-11-01.
• I use he/him pronouns.
• I am interested in OSes/builds and video games.
• I become a beta tester around on the 2017-07-15. I started installing OSes properly in a VM (such as Windows 2000 RTM) on 2016-11-07 for the first time.
• Call me Uncle Captain, as because BGRComputers.co is my company's name.
