An independent view regarding the weather is that weather can’t be good or bad, only the clothing can’t be fitting the circumstances

HVSC seems not to contain any covers of Bob Zawinul and the Weather Report, not even "Birdland". On the other hand, there is no cover of Weather Girls’ "It’s raining men" neither.

Oh, DRAX once begun on a cover, but it is credited to Manhattan Transfer’s cover. By the way, it is Joe Zawinul says Google.

Some parties produced enough material for those 350 pages.
Still,I think it might be interesting to have though.

As long as it doesn’t have a long history of magic dragons that live inside the c64, like a certain other "c64" book, it can’t be all bad.
I think I’ll wait for the cracked version of the book tho :P

Magic dragons? I knew about Vic, Sid and the CIA. Maybe one or two dust mice too. Is there any video effects that rely on how overheated the chip gets due to dust?

@Anders.. A C64 overheating?
I once had it turned on for close to 3 months and it kept running smoothly.
And believe me,it was -and still is- quite dusty.
The discdrive is another topic ofcoz.. ;P

@15, 17: I’ve had a breadbox without a heatsink running continously for several weeks. There was no strange behaviour, damage, whatsoever. As for being dusty, none of my commies are dusty. I wash’em with soap. ;P

Just to be on topic here, great work on the HVSC intro to all involved! Stylish lead in with HVSC info, nice main part, and of course an awesome tune by Jeff that shows the good ol SID is still more than capabable of making jaws drop :)

Dish-cleaning fluid and a hard sponge could do real magic with plastic vanila surfaces, just don’t forget to get out the electronic components, right... After a session the equipment could look like brand new.

Woo. Washing the case, restoring the keyboard, dusting off the interior and then most computers can be sold as "mint condition", or at least "newly renovated" to use a car sellers term.

Re 2005 Minigame compo launched: Since when was 1K 1280 bytes and 4k 4352 bytes?

my favourite thing about that, is that 1280 is not even a multiple of 4352 :)
[32] :
13. Jun 2005 11:57
It is obvious: the first kilobyte is 1280 bytes, and the following kilobytes are 1024 bytes each. The computer needs a 256 byte header to know that a program is coming. Regarding the crap game compo, I’m quite sure it runs until 31 December like last year.

[37-38]: RoboNES is the main organiser. Richard is the sponsor (moderator) of the Commodore platforms. The interest to host a such compo isn’t too overwhelming, as far as I understand. Wyndex has, with help of others, hosted it for two years now.

I will pay my respects if there ever will be a Scene-Tombstone.
Untill that day,I?ll assume it is alive. ;)
Besides,only LAMERS think they have the power to declare something that can not be owned,dead.
Using a nick like "John 666" tells me enough about who this might have been.
Go kill some Koalas if you are bored.
I guess your parents gave up on you a long time ago. (PUKE!)
Why not kill yourself,that would suit your lame 666 reference and it will save the scene a lot of "bad vibes". :P
