[21:14] Howdy RaBiT [21:15] ah, so [21:15] Hi Snog. Thanks for plugging the photos. What did you think? [21:15] haven't seen them all yet... [21:15] I saw them, I't good to be able to put faces with names [21:15] Hi Fuzz. How did the launch of Spork64 go? Getting lots of d-loads? [21:15] I got as far as the 3 SX64's then came here [21:16] Hi Al. Yes, that is definitely one of the best parts of an EXPO - even if you aren't there in person. [21:16] Yes, Cameron had a nice pile of equipment and he used them for his demo's. [21:17] I'll look at the rest probably tommorrow [21:17] I was thinking about a comment someone said about a few of the demos actually being powerpoint presentations [21:17] They aren't going anywhere. [21:17] hi RaBiT! The launch of Spork64 went very well. I think there were over 200 copies downloaded/distributed :) [21:17] any chance of getting those online to view as well? [21:17] Yes, Dave Ross and Bilgem did Powerpoint presentations. [21:18] I hope so. I'll contat them and ask. [21:18] Fuzz - it got some good play time at CommVEx when I introduced it. [21:18] I had a chance to view the Bill and Dave video before it got pulled :/ [21:19] that's excellent! thank you :) I read some reviews about Commvex and it sounded like a great time [21:19] It is supposed to be going back up. Some sort of misunderstanding but Bo tells me Bil and Dave have OK'd it. [21:19] 200+ DLs not bad. [21:19] That will be great as I never got to see most of it due to prep work needing to be done. [21:19] did the Bill and dave video end early? I didn't see the LCD unit. [21:20] it was in there [21:20] Even a positive White Flame remark. [21:20] Haven't seen it yet. I am expecting a full blown DVD version from Robert at some point. [21:20] May have to watch the online copies sooner though. [21:20] The LCD unit had stange front for the last 1/3 I guess of the video [21:20] maybe my download died early... [21:20] probably that's when the video got pulled, al [21:21] anyone want to trade a c128 without power supply for an book assembler+gfx on the c64 (not a url please).
