The MiSTer is the best thing for experiencing old systems yet to be developed and it gets daily use, but for me there's nothing that beats the real thing... for the stuff I used to own. I have no real desire to own anything now I didn't own back in the day, with a very few exceptions (eg. C128). Selling anything is a minefield. I still think you should come along to the Expo. Not for the talks, not for the games, not for the equipment, but for the company. The people I meet is why I'm going 🙂 I'm definitely not staying in the Norbroke, I've booked a hotel about 1km away called the Haskell 😉 My question for the next Waffle is a simple one: Do you prefer e-books, physical paper books or do you like both?
Great waffle Al - and I think you were very diplomatic and kind about the usual suspects in terms of the ‘circlejerk’ retro UA-camrs ! Nefarious activities / grifting aside, their biggest crime for me is simply that their content is usually boring and soulless, and I’ve no idea why anyone would find them interesting in a panel talk. Anyways keep up the good work mate (for free ha ha) 😊😉👍

I agree, plus why does it have to be UA-camrs anyway. I mean why not get a retro game dev or something like tht
