OMG I'm so old...the year you were born I was watching Dio in concert, pleasantly inebriated. I think I saw Rush that year, too.

Funny, I thought you where the 19-25 type :p

'90 for me

This confirms what I have been thinking for a while now. You can split most of the people who play Orbiter into two groups: The people who got into Orbiter because they experienced the space race in the 60s, and the people who got into Orbiter because of the computer game culture that people grew up after 1980.

Hmm, it looks like I'm neither. 1976 here. Conceived about the same time when Buran was.

I came late to Dio but am old enough to have one album. Lock Up The Wolves ws my first and only album of their's and was the beginning of the end for them IMHO. Now, thanks to your bit of nostalgia, I need to go dive into my late '80s rock albums... :p
