[@jamesford4950]

Thank you so much for the kind words regarding Colour Personal Computing. I think I was actually blushing watching this video! ☺

[@Xyphoe]

Kind words well deserved mate! Hope it's got you a few new orders! How's the latest issue coming along?

[@koraymemmi8550]

Those magazines are still exciting me like i'am 10 years old. T u sir...

[@Xyphoe]

That's the spirit!! Love it! Absolutely nothing wrong with that at all, love to hear it! Me too sir!!

[@beagsx3]

I genuinely had no idea such a thing even existed. Some great content by the looks of it and at a very wallet friendly £8. Great video, Mr Xyphoe

[@borilla1133]

Great stuff Xyphoe, this is straight onto my Christmas wish list

[@Xyphoe]

Excellent! I know you'll enjoy this :)

[@theITGuy-no3nt]

The intro is amazing in its own right, but it is also 40 seconds. I am an old man with a pretty healthy attention span and it strained mine. That said, I could never have made something this good on the Amstrad. Props!

[@Xyphoe]

Thanks - and yea I know, I've had that intro for a long time and it breaks a lot of 'KZbin rules' - everything these days must be short and snappy for the vast majorities minute attentions spans, and I've been meaning to change it for a very long time - it's just finding the time to make a whole new one that's up to the same standard. I'll get round to it when other more important videos aren't suffering delays getting out on the channel.

"64 NOPs" is the number of machine instructions the CPU can do in the time it takes the monitor to draw one scanline, if you were wondering.

[@Xyphoe]

Ahh!! Now we know! (Or at least I do!) Thanks Anthony!

[@duffman1863]

Great video and great to see Amstrad magazines in print. Excellent stuff. Just wanted to point out that Neil Reive (who wrote the Red Planet review in Addict) has never had anything to do with Indie Retro News. You are probably mixing the name up with IRN's Neil Green. Neil Reive did the Amstrad Action tribute mag, Retroaction mags, and more...

[@Xyphoe]

Ahhh right! Sorry... yea I probably have there! Apologies to both Neils there!! Sorry!

[@respergu13]

Great magazines indeed, interested in the article about Vespertino, there has been a bit of controversy with in particular a c64 fanboy that said that it was a hoax! 🍿

[@Xyphoe]

It's an interview with one of the guys from the Batman Group!

[@paulb4uk]

Superb stuff great to see these magazines being produced .

[@Xyphoe]

Indeed! And long may it continue!

[@amjh4lah809]

First like, first comment, 3rd minute 😊

[@Xyphoe]

Ha! Thank you sir!

[@AnthonyFlack]

The magazine is perfect. So much great content; you definitely don't want to miss it. They even interviewed the guy who wrote OCP Art Studio. Dare we hope that there might one day be an Amstrad Addict issue 2? Thanks for the heads up about Colour Personal Computing.

[@Xyphoe]

I'm slightly biased, with a couple of small things in there, but even without it there I would be agreeing with everything you said there. I sincerely hope there would be a follow up one day!

[@batman-77]

Great stuff! Already got mine. 👍

[@Xyphoe]

Excellent! Well done Batman!

[@ManOutOfTime-ej9yu]

I ordered form CPC store

[@Xyphoe]

Oh excellent! Is that Colour Personal Computing? I'm sure James will be thrilled about new orders! Great stuff!

[@maniacsatwork]

I got mine today but the top half got crushed in the mail. Great content though.

[@Xyphoe]

Oh no!! I hope it's not too badly damaged?? Bloody Royal Mail grrrrrr

[@maniacsatwork]

@@Xyphoe It's not bad, I've been placing heavy objects on it to flatten it, but it was sent in a flimsy envelope.

[@Gambit771]

A to what Xyphoe? You've been talking to Manshovel too much.

[@Xyphoe]

Oh lordy... did I say "Zeee"? Yup.... gonna blame Manshovel on that one again if so!! 😂 Actually it's probably an over-abundance of American KZbinrs/streamers doing A-Z videos and streams reprogramming my mind!! arghhh
