@qix77 Check out the "The Deathbed vigil" documentary by Dave Haynie.

2 hours of documentary covering the last days of Commodore's Westchester plant.

Heres a trailer. Just add the 'w' where needed for a look at a 12 minute trailer for it:

Jay Miner - not merely a hardware genius, but willing to *mortgage his house* to buy time for the project, let alone see it complete. That's love - and it's sad that the industry venerates people like Gates and Jobs who were far more ruthless, while Jay and the team remain known to only a few.

Amiga still rules.

Any video about the Amiga motivates me to keep on programming

You know, this is true. I'm working on Android development, and I've run into some snags, and felt like giving up, til I saw this video (again) and remembered what it was like back then...

I have CDTV with my own aplicated mods (compact flash card controller, fast ram, nu Agnus with 2MB chip)... And A1200 with full power expansions!

@mariodivine

The CDTV is one of the coolest looking computers ever created, and *was* the coolest looking computer at the time of its creation.
