1. He purchased a few computers and had fun(although, I hate to think what he did to that poor little vic 20)

I was thinking somewhat similar. In the video he says (about the VIC-20 from his roommate):

"I sat down in front of the computer, turned it on, and started doing things with it"..

Right now I have very vomit-inducing visualisations. Poor VIC-20  :-(

You guys are a trip.  I thought it was a good video on how he got into computers.  Pretty entertaining hehe.  I might do one too since some of you think we are the same person.

That picture made me laugh. It looks like my old office at Rockwell back in the 80's. :-)

I didnt bother downloading a vid created by a nobody.

There is a difference between putting up a page with you history written in it (which he already has), and making a 12-minute video of yourself, in which you tell the same story.

If I could give a tip to Doomy: make a video in which you actually DO something, or show something on that marvellous Amiga 2000 (I wonder why he is sitting in front of an A4000 instead though) rather than sitting still and telling a fairytale in a way too monotonous voice.

It's not that you have missed anything. Of course the comments were much more funny than the video itself.

Yep, thanks to AOrg, etc members. There's no such thing as bad publicity. Sheer genius!

I agree, this jerk gets way too much attention from members here.  Wasted bandwidth is all it is.  I could not stand to watch more than a few seconds of the video and from what I have read here, I am glad I did not waste my time.

TjLazer, you don't actually like that idiot or believe anything he writes or says, do you?  I can't imagine why you would visit his website to find that video?  Maybe the others here are right when they say you and he are the same person?

Anyway, it is not worth my time or energy to think or read about it any further.  Doomy is the biggest loser in the Amiga community I have ever come across.  :oops:

TjLazer is a mod on Doomy's forum so I guess he likes him.

Fully agree on that. Everytime a new "Doomy does it again" or "Look at those ebay prices! What a rip-off!!1!" thread appears here, I really have to *yaaaaaaaawn*.

omg, what a nerd.

almost as bad as Apple II guy

Very good point, I will have to ask him about this one!!

He needs to do another video showing off his famous Amiga 2500 workstation.  

[A1260]

okay so there will be a part 2 that is all about the a2000 miletary spec?

[persia]

Excuse me, who is this guy and why the boring video?  I mean he goes on and on about his history but why should I care?  No transitions, just a fixed camera.  At least make the penguin on the Amiga explode or something.  Bill Gates, love him or hate him, could get away with some long life story but not this looser.

[Framiga]

is a long story, persia ... sometimes boring, other times amusing like this one! ;-)

Almost as bad? Doomy is worse! At least the Apple II guy has porn videos! (check the video around 1:08 minutes :lol:)
