So you were into SCSI devices before '94? That could also mean Mac SCSI. Hmmm... I think you're going to have to work on your screen name a little more so we know precisely what you mean...  LOL!!


Mostly a ref to b494 which is where I like to stay computer wise. Strange fact that scuzz has nothing to do with SCSI. I have always had a pointless tag associated with forum chat emails etc... And the day I joined one of the Amiga groups it coincided with me setting up a new dialup account, with Virgin I think. Anyway I was asked for a name and as usual popped the first thing that came into my head... This time though it stuck. Not something I had intended... And why scuzz .. well I had been watching Southpark.

Cartman: Hey you guys. I know a scary story.
Kyle: Shut up, Cartman! You can't scare anybody!
Cartman: [softly, slowly, flashlight ready] Oh yeah? Have you guys
ever heard of [flashlight on] Scuzzlebutt ?
Stan: Whatabutt?
Cartman: Scuzzlebutt is a creature that lives up on this very
mountain, and kills anybody who dares climb to the top.
Stan: Why?
Cartman: Because, it loves the taste of blood, and likes to add
pieces to its deformed body.
Kyle: Deformed how?
Cartman: Well, on his left arm, instead of a hand, he has..
Stan: A hook.
Kyle: A knife.
Cartman: No! A piece of celery.
Stan: Celery?
Cartman: Yeah, and he walks with a limp. Because one of his legs
is missing. And where his leg should be, there's nothing but
..Patrick Duffy.
Kyle: Patrick Duffy? Damn it Cartman, that's not scary!
Cartman: What do you mean? Have you ever seen Step By Step? [Silence]
So he lives alone on this mountain, and weaves baskets,
and other assorted crafts. They say that on quiet nights you can hear him weaving his baskets. Tahink .. tahink .. tahink.
Stan: Cartman, you suck at telling scary stories.
Kyle: Yeah, give me that flashlight. [takes it and turns it off]
Kenny: [Volcano rumbles] (Hey, what's that?)
Kyle: What is that?
Stan: Maybe it's Scuzzlebutt coming to weave us into wicker baskets.
Cartman: Hey, it might be!
Kyle: Gosh, I hope he doesn't cut me with his celery hand.
[the others laugh]
Cartman: You guys! Go to Hell!

And thats the truth. I must annoy Scuzz though, the Rock Channel, cus when you Google scuzz in amongst the dozens of pages dedicated to Scuzz Rock Channel there on the first page is Commodore Amiga Retro.... :-)

@ scuzz. Don't you write on your website that your nick is in fact inspired by SCSI?

EDIT: I'd love an up-to-date version of ScummVM capable of playing Grim Fandango, MI3, 4 ....



Kinda. I was just being totally honest in the previous post where the name originally came from. I certainly was influenced in keeping the name as I delved deeper into the wonders of SCSI. And more and more folk started to relate the name as something to do with SCSI so I kinda just allowed that to be the given reason. There is no doubt that SCSI for me is a marvel and I have found it to be the way forward on generally all my Amigas. So easy to set up and expand the Amiga. Love it to death.... I do have a private page which explains  the origins. But for those that want the association to be to do with SCSI I have no problem in adopting that either.

Was quite strange meeting a long standing Amiga friend last week, who I have communicated with for many years as scuzz, for me to introduce myself by my real name. He still kept calling me scuzz...

Happy days.
