Snout was born in 1979, and has lived most of his active MSX period in the Northern part of the Netherlands (Groningen, Friesland, Drenthe). In 1986 he got his first MSX, a Philips NMS8245. In 1990 he moved to Groningen. There he met Michiel de Vries and they started attending MSX meetings at the MSX-GG in Groningen (which - unfortunately - does not exist anymore). At this MSX-GG there were many people of the new group Flying Bytes around and before he knew it he was composing Soundtracker (and later Moonblaster) music for this group.

In 1999 and 2000 snout got more active on the internet. He contributed a bit to the MCCW and started making plans to create his own website. At the same time, Sander van Nunen posted a message on msx.org, asking for people who wanted to help him rebuild the website. The ASP version of the MSX Resource Center was created back then. The rest is history. (Browse the news archive if you want to).
