Retrogeek Video (Doomy)
« on: August 15, 2007, 04:37:18 AM »
Doomy wanted me to pass on that he made a cool video about how he got into Commodore/Amiga/Atari's.  Check it out...

If he's such an "expert" at computers, how come he manages to make a 3 minute video with poor resolution nearly 300MB in size???

Oh wow, that was funny.

Scary thing is I think I went in to the Hacker Shack place in Portland in the mid 1980s with my cousin. I could've had the honor of actually meeting this Amiga expert in person! If only I'd known... oh well.

I also find it somewhat disturbing that he keeps talking on his website about "We at Retrogeek Computers"..

Who is/are these other(s)? Or does he refer to himself in Royal Plural Form, like those megalomanic kings and emperors in the past always seem to do? ("We, Louis XIV from France.......")

If you want to see some more funnies, go to his forums,
 Under the "Amiga on eBay" section, he has his list of
 ebay sellers to avoid, but there seems to be one missing.

And from his "Helpful Tidbits" section, I guess I should
sell my A3000 and my A3000T, as any A2000 equiped with
the same processor will be faster because of "Commodore's decision to include a bus management chip, called "Buster," in the design of the Amiga 3000. Unfortunately for the user, all Buster manages to do is to create a bottleneck for information that slows the computing process."
