Alfonso (Borrocop in the scene) is a frequent visitor and forum poster of our page since one or two months. He was graphic designer of one of the most important Spanish companies of the 80', Topo soft (distributed outside Spain by U.S. Gold). Excited by the existent activity, he answered our long questionnaire so kindly - we are thankful to him from these lines -, providing an enormous amount to us of data.
You can access the interview clicking here (please note that the interview is in Spanish, so we recommend you to use a web translator).

...These are the sixth Christmas we are with you... We wish we could be six years more together :wink:

We've created a new forums. Now you could have your interface in english, so it will be more easy for you.
The forums will be faster, won't have so many downs and will be more controlable by us. But remember, you must register again.

You'll find them at:

After 4 years, we've decide to install a new guestbook. You could see the 356 signs of the old one clicking here.

So, let's go and sign in! Your opinion is always important for us (even if you have signed in the previous one :smile:).

After two weeks, aprox., off line, we're back again. We hope you continue visiting us :wink:

The server admins will make changes in the following hours. This will produce that our server will be down for a maximum of three days.
But we'll back, don't worry :tongue:

Today is the day we've fixed all problems! Now the page is 100% fully operational.
Remember: now we're only www.computeremuzone.com (or its variant computeremuzone.com), so update your bookmarks!

We continue moving the page to other server. Don't worry! :wink:

In the next hours it will begin the server change. It will cause some problems with scripts that will be solutioned in the coming days.

We'll hope the new server could give us a better support in order to let computeremuzone.com continues growing.

After a lot of time (about 4 years, if my memory serves me right), the moment has arrived for the server change: Metropoli2000/Metropoliglobal (our actual host) has died.
Most veteran of you will remember the problems it gave us, in spite of the good will of its administrators... Downloads qeues, lots of ads, continuous falls... That they caused, in more than an occasion, we seriously thought to change of server, although we never decided to do.

Lately the events have hurried, and also thanks to it we were able to be during months without abusive ads and with uploads working at 100%.

Although in the last months arrived supplies to us from other free servers, we have decided to try the adventure of the payment server, paying for it we ourself without depending on anybody, which also has its advantages but many disadvantages.
Calm, we are not going to request you donations nor nothing of the sort, but it's certain that we won't allow destructive critics by a service that we rendered to you without demanding contraprestación. Tolerance 0, as I said in some occasion, with that type of critics.

We'll inform you, but I notice to you that in the next days (around day 1st May), it will be some cuts in the service due to the server change.

We hope the change is for better. Goodbye and thanks, M2K, for these unforgettable years.
