Donations from Kickstart 02

[@flibblesan]

To clarify that Sam's Journey, I purchased the digital-download copy from Protovision back in 2017 and wrote the images to real floppies. :D

Always lovely to meet up with you too! Glad you enjoyed the Atari table 😁 On a similar note, I tried to buy the Commodore Story book after a few people recommended it to me and the author Steven Fletcher was familiar with my channel and very insistent that I take one for free. Was going to mention it in my own video but it's buried in one of my many boxes! I'm very keen to find it and give it a read.

Rees you grifter! :D

An Atari collection at an Amiga event 😂👍

[@richardbaker974]

One of my favourite parts of KS02 was speaking to Lee, hearing about the displayed and ongoing projects and then upcoming charity auction was great and he's a really interesting chap, which is why the videos are so good!

You've got a busy summer ahead, looking forward to seeing the final machine lineup. Oh, and it was nice to chat with you at KickStart 02. It was quieter on the Sunday - I think some sore heads from the aftershow! Cheers, Graham.

[@morefunmakingit2]

Hey Graham! Nice to meet you at the show. Thanks for the lovely chat :D

You might want to open up that Power Computing floppy drive, there's a possibility that it's an XL Amiga which can handle high density disks. If it is, the PCB will have POWER COMPUTING HIGH DENSITY FLOPPY etched on it in between a PLCC and a crystal.

[@morefunmakingit2]

I took a look as you suggested but sadly its a standard drive. Thanks for the info though!

[@RetroBytesUK]

It was nice to get to meet up again with you at kickstart, I missed all the talks too. I totally forget to film anything however so you where more organised than me

[@morefunmakingit2]

I've never been accused of being organised! 🤣

[@tooheystechgaming1977]

It was a brilliant event will deffo attend next year aswell

[@morefunmakingit2]

:D

[@WhatHoSnorkers]

Lovely to see, and it looks like a great event!

[@morefunmakingit2]

It was!

Ah the good old DKTronics keyboard for the Speccy , had one back when they first came out , a really good keyboard ( better than any of the official ones for 48K/48k+ by a long way )

[@morefunmakingit2]

It does feel lovely. Better than a lot of the keyboards on competing machines from the time!

[@domramsey]

Hi Lee, are you able to give details on when / where this auction is happening? Is there at least a page I can bookmark? I think I missed your previous auctions because I was a bit confused about how to bid and ended up missing them. I'm really interested in some of this Commodore stuff! Thanks! ☺

[@morefunmakingit2]

Hi. It will be on September the 14th and run from 11am to 11pm BST. I will soon be creating a page on my website to host all the details once I have caught up with a few things.

[@domramsey]

@@morefunmakingit2 Cool thanks! I've put it in my calendar so I don't miss it. :)

[@paszTube]

3:08 and a fake Australian! ;)

[@wimwiddershins]

I can confirm he is indeed a fake Australian. 😜

[@fu1r4]

12:46 Why do you think the floppy disk was upside down? It should sit in the lid ...

[@linuxjedivideo]

The PiStorm 600 parts were collected by Royal Mail today, on their way to you 🙂 Let me know if you if you need anything else.

[@morefunmakingit2]

Thank you Andrew :D

[@paszTube]

6:46 I got this exact data recorder, it came with an Elk I bought a few months back, I think the belts are gone on mine! Will you do a video on the restoration of your recorder or is that not exciting content? ;)

[@linuxjedivideo]

I have three of them in a box somewhere that still need restoring 😂

[@paszTube]

@@linuxjedivideo Cool.. So why are these so good?

[@linuxjedivideo]

@@paszTube designed for computers, and during an era where tape mechanisms are made to a high standard. There are not many good tape mechanisms nowadays.

[@morefunmakingit2]

It might one day make a video. It certainly deserves it, marvellous machine. But my current plans are a bit busy so its likely going to be next year some time!
