Oh what a great little present right before Christmas!!!
Great show guys!
Well I explained a lot already in a previous topic, but a few years after the Amstrad PCW, I got into video games by the Amstrad GX4000 (basically a CPC shaped like a video game console that miserably failed on the market because it arrived just before the Megadrive and Super Nintedno 16 bits console were released), then a very classical Gameboy, then a Super Nintendo.
Funny thing: I tried no longer than yesterday to emulate a GX4000 using MESS on my Linux desktop and it was very disappointing (like 3 frames per second, totally unplayable thing)… Any good Amstrad CPC/GX4000 emulator there?
You guys mentionned the fact that we may all have a memory unit inside our house to store all our data. I already have that, and it’s called a NAS! Alright, it’s not a brick built into my flat (fortunately, since I’ve moved 4 times in the past 5 years), but I’ve actually been using it for 2 years now and I’ve been pleasantely surprised at how easy it had been to install and how many services it provides (Dropbox alternative, Google music alternative, Evernote alternative, music player, Download station, video library for my OpenElec device, Web server)… maybe I should write a review!
@sil, you discussed about microphones. I own a Zoom H2n which has the feature of recording in “surround” mode and in two separate files, and it’s not extremely expensive (I got it for around 150 USD). Could this help you in your interviews?
Happy whatever, people! And don’t worry, you could have been a month late, there would still have been one holiday to go: Chinese New Year (it’s due mid-February in 2015).
