I'll see you next time.

00:02:11,940 --> 00:02:41,920
I'll see you next time.

30
00:02:41,920 --> 00:03:11,900
I'll see you next time.

31
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:13,880
You have the cold shine up on the screen now.

32
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,900
You need to change that to the...

33
00:03:15,900 --> 00:03:17,160
To the websites.

34
00:03:18,260 --> 00:03:18,800
Doing that now.

35
00:03:19,420 --> 00:03:20,420
Doing that right now.

36
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,200
Doing that right now.

37
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:30,440
You don't tend to think about the hip-hop culture.

38
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,840
All about rap music and the hip-hop scene.

39
00:03:35,300 --> 00:03:36,720
I don't travel in those circles.

40
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:37,980
I don't get to talk to those guys.

41
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:38,380
Those guys.

42
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:41,280
But I did get to talk to them in this chat room.

43
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:41,980
Fat 32.

44
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,520
Hip-hop chat room I went into.

45
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,140
I don't know a lot about the hip-hop scene.

46
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:46,840
Fat 32.

47
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:47,340
You do now?

48
00:03:47,580 --> 00:03:48,100
I do now.

49
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,200
I don't travel in those circles.

50
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:51,460
I don't get to talk to those guys.

51
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,200
Fat 32.

52
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:53,300
Man, I learned a lot about...

53
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:53,660
Twisted!

54
00:03:58,300 --> 00:03:59,760
Dispatches unwraps the story by...

55
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,800
People getting undressed, you know, going to the bathroom.

56
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:02,400
Twisted!

57
00:04:02,580 --> 00:04:03,680
Dispatches investigates.

58
00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:05,340
Monday at 8 on 4.

59
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,120
Paul Schindler.

60
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,980
A Dispatches undercover investigation.

61
00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:12,460
Monday at 8 on 4.

62
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:13,200
Paul Schindler.

63
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,440
The problem with buying computer products used to be you couldn't find a retail store.

64
00:04:17,780 --> 00:04:20,780
Or if you could find one, they often didn't have what you were looking for.

65
00:04:21,220 --> 00:04:25,840
Well, it's a totally different dilemma today as computer stores have become supermarkets.

66
00:04:26,220 --> 00:04:29,820
And the problem now is how to choose among all the available products.

67
00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:35,180
Today we'll try and help you decide as we bring you a computer consumers buying guide.

68
00:04:35,180 --> 00:04:37,940
On this edition of the Computer Chronicles.

69
00:04:37,940 --> 00:04:52,180
Beautiful stuff.

70
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,040
Computer Chronicles is made possible in part by Cardinal Technologies.

71
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:57,260
Janie Mac, thank you very much.

72
00:04:57,260 --> 00:04:59,660
Designer and manufacturer of advanced personal computers.

73
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:06,340
The beautiful, beautiful, beautiful situation there last night with the consumer, holiday Christmas consumer, buyer's guide.

74
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,740
Some real amazing products.

75
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,340
Dinosaur fin that fit onto your filthy, thank you very much.

76
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:13,600
Fit onto your computer.

77
00:05:14,900 --> 00:05:17,780
And where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

78
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,200
Special edition box set.

79
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,400
So much good stuff.

80
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,000
Can't wait to see what they've got here.

81
00:05:24,060 --> 00:05:24,960
It's 1991.

82
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,280
Ryan McDyyer, thank you very much.

83
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,900
The Schindle Swing is here.

84
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:38,420
And we've also got to delve into his backstory of the Wheel of Fortune.

85
00:05:38,420 --> 00:05:43,740
So there's still some great extra bonus Oscar Schindler content coming straight out the hatch.

86
00:05:43,740 --> 00:05:46,620
Here is the video toaster running on an IBM PS2.

87
00:05:46,700 --> 00:05:48,040
In fact, it can run under Windows.

88
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,100
Most people have heard of the toaster for the Amiga.

89
00:05:50,340 --> 00:05:53,460
But now you can actually do the same kinds of video effects on an IBM.

90
00:05:53,620 --> 00:05:55,240
What I have here is the interface.

91
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,500
This is really the kind of panel you might have in a very expensive television post-production center.

92
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,980
A 3D effects, character generator, all kinds of choices over here.

93
00:06:02,980 --> 00:06:05,900
The video toaster was the Kiki Stockhammer vehicle.

94
00:06:05,900 --> 00:06:08,480
I don't know if you've seen that back in the early days.

95
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:14,780
This is the Stockhammer product that launched Stockhammer back in the day.

96
00:06:15,500 --> 00:06:16,920
We might even catch a glimpse of her here.

97
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,740
The actual video effects I can do to go from one video picture to another.

98
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:20,640
For example, I'll show you.

99
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,960
I can just pick this sort of tearing paper effect.

100
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:23,840
Click on auto.

101
00:06:24,380 --> 00:06:25,040
And look at that.

102
00:06:25,740 --> 00:06:26,520
That's one of them.

103
00:06:26,580 --> 00:06:28,860
I can do any of these things just simply by clicking on here.

104
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,200
We'll do a checkerboard effect.

105
00:06:31,340 --> 00:06:32,960
Again, going from one video source.

106
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,660
That's some really nice pull action right there.

107
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,440
Checkerboard video feature that he's got going.

108
00:06:39,580 --> 00:06:40,380
It's sweet.

109
00:06:40,860 --> 00:06:41,880
It's vaporwave.

110
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:42,820
By clicking on here.

111
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,440
What would be now known as today is vaporwave.

112
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,160
We'll do a checkerboard effect.

113
00:06:48,280 --> 00:06:50,760
Again, going from one video source to another.

114
00:06:51,140 --> 00:06:53,220
We can go in here and do this as a kind of neat.

115
00:06:53,700 --> 00:06:54,940
Lamsey, thank you very much.

116
00:06:55,140 --> 00:06:56,360
You toasted your video.

117
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,560
Watch what this looks like.

118
00:06:57,620 --> 00:07:00,120
This is just all coming right off a personal computer.

119
00:07:00,260 --> 00:07:01,580
Not some million dollar machine.

120
00:07:02,060 --> 00:07:03,940
A little iris effect over here.

121
00:07:04,980 --> 00:07:06,300
Paul, this is a revolution.

122
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,820
As those of us who've worked in television know, I mean, you couldn't have done this stuff before.

123
00:07:09,820 --> 00:07:11,880
What does this mean to desktop video?

124
00:07:12,300 --> 00:07:13,860
Well, I see two things that it means, Stuart.

125
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:24,700
First of all, the fact that it's now available under Windows makes that entire vast, rich library of Windows images available in a sort of a television production kind of environment.

126
00:07:25,060 --> 00:07:34,440
But more importantly, I see this as doing for home video what desktop computers did for publishing.

127
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,300
What publishing did for home manipulation of words.

128
00:07:38,300 --> 00:07:41,820
It's going to make it possible to produce professional quality product.

129
00:07:42,220 --> 00:07:45,300
It's an Owen McClub situation indeed, John M.

130
00:07:46,700 --> 00:07:48,240
Glad you picked up on that there.

131
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,360
It's a strangled root, but it works.

132
00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:55,540
And remarkably, his hair got darker as the years went on.

133
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,360
So I'd say he's using dye in those later episodes.

134
00:07:58,740 --> 00:08:05,600
And he kind of has like jerry curls going on in those later episodes when he gets hired by Windows.

135
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,680
At home, at an at-home price.

136
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:14,680
And I guess what you can do then with the Windows is pull an image out of a Windows file, play with it on the toaster, and put it back inside a document.

137
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,680
Any paint program, any digital capture program, any scanner, right into the video toaster.

138
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,460
Certainly one of the more interesting products of the past year.

139
00:08:21,460 --> 00:08:28,460
Paul and I will be joined by Chronicles regulars, Tim Baharan and Jan Lewis to show you a whole bunch of great new computer products.

140
00:08:28,460 --> 00:08:28,460
The badge.

141
00:08:28,460 --> 00:08:34,460
Now in this consumer's guide show, one problem is what to buy, the other problem is where to buy it.

142
00:08:34,460 --> 00:08:36,460
One option is the mail order house.

143
00:08:36,460 --> 00:08:43,460
Shopping through a mail order house is tempting.

144
00:08:43,460 --> 00:08:46,460
You can see nice color pictures of the products in a printed catalog.

145
00:08:46,460 --> 00:08:50,460
And if you want to buy something, all you have to do is pick up the phone.

146
00:08:50,460 --> 00:08:57,460
But there is a certain fear involved in committing a good chunk of money to some unseen operator somewhere on the other side of the country.

147
00:08:57,460 --> 00:09:04,460
A direct mail customer is really most concerned about will the company honor the order and take care of that call.

148
00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:05,460
We've got Ken Eldred here at Inmac.

149
00:09:05,460 --> 00:09:07,460
He's an absolute sensational salesman.

150
00:09:07,460 --> 00:09:08,460
Most people do an okay job in delivering products.

151
00:09:08,460 --> 00:09:11,460
Incredible force in the industry actually.

152
00:09:11,460 --> 00:09:14,460
He did a lot of great work in the industry for a long, long time.

153
00:09:14,460 --> 00:09:18,460
And he paved the way in many respects.

154
00:09:18,460 --> 00:09:20,460
And look at this.

155
00:09:20,460 --> 00:09:22,460
A cyber warehouse worker here.

156
00:09:22,460 --> 00:09:31,460
And he's got that worker's fucking stretch belt on to keep everything trim and proper.

157
00:09:31,460 --> 00:09:33,460
It's a tight scenario.

158
00:09:33,460 --> 00:09:35,460
Something is wrong with the product they send you.

159
00:09:35,460 --> 00:09:37,460
He works hard and he plays hard, you see.

160
00:09:37,460 --> 00:09:42,460
And that's why he needs to have the pal hanger, is it?

161
00:09:42,460 --> 00:09:43,460
I don't know what that is.

162
00:09:43,460 --> 00:09:45,460
Never seen it, but it's a tight scenario.

163
00:09:45,460 --> 00:09:46,460
In question we replace it.

164
00:09:46,460 --> 00:09:50,460
In fact, normally we ship a replacement before they return the product.

165
00:09:50,460 --> 00:09:59,460
If you have confidence in the mail order house and can overcome the fear of doing...

166
00:09:59,460 --> 00:10:02,460
And it's a mail order house as well.

167
00:10:02,460 --> 00:10:05,460
There's mails working there and they're made to order.

168
00:10:05,460 --> 00:10:14,460
And I don't know what kind of fucking fallout three screen scenario setup that is, but it's antiquated enough.

169
00:10:14,460 --> 00:10:28,460
This is wrong with the product and the vendor.

170
00:10:28,460 --> 00:10:33,460
Significant advantages to buying mail order for both the customer and the vendor.

171
00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:40,460
The reason customers come to Inmac as opposed to a store is service and broad selection of products.

172
00:10:40,460 --> 00:10:44,460
We offer thousands of items for computer users.

173
00:10:44,460 --> 00:10:48,460
And normally we can put those products in front of people faster than anyone else.

174
00:10:48,460 --> 00:10:55,460
Through a catalog, we can expose a new product idea to a customer, a million impressions within a matter of...

175
00:10:55,460 --> 00:10:57,460
Look at that photo studio there.

176
00:10:57,460 --> 00:11:01,460
And that could even be Schindler himself there doing a bit of fucking night work.

177
00:11:01,460 --> 00:11:02,460
Yeah.

178
00:11:02,460 --> 00:11:05,460
Showing his night moves.

179
00:11:05,460 --> 00:11:06,460
Weeks.

180
00:11:06,460 --> 00:11:07,460
We provide a...

181
00:11:07,460 --> 00:11:09,460
Default to Kiri Dan.

182
00:11:09,460 --> 00:11:10,460
Thanks very much.

183
00:11:10,460 --> 00:11:11,460
Tuesday evening here down under.

184
00:11:11,460 --> 00:11:13,460
Fans since the early world news is thanks very much there.

185
00:11:13,460 --> 00:11:15,460
Default to Kiri Dan.

186
00:11:15,460 --> 00:11:17,460
Which can't be found in a typical store.

187
00:11:17,460 --> 00:11:20,460
And I hope everything's going on alright there down in...

188
00:11:20,460 --> 00:11:21,460
Maria Gabriel.

189
00:11:21,460 --> 00:11:22,460
Australia man.

190
00:11:22,460 --> 00:11:26,460
Next, we've got Tristan's light magic.

191
00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:27,460
Looks pretty good.

192
00:11:27,460 --> 00:11:32,460
It's an unbelievable fucking graphics package capability gameplay scenario.

193
00:11:32,460 --> 00:11:34,460
And we've got herself as well.

194
00:11:34,460 --> 00:11:37,460
20s, 30s, speakeasy broad.

195
00:11:37,460 --> 00:11:38,460
I can't remember her name.

196
00:11:38,460 --> 00:11:39,460
I can't remember her name.

197
00:11:39,460 --> 00:11:44,460
And unfortunately, we don't have the Tommy Schlug alike from last night, but the badge is in town.

198
00:11:44,460 --> 00:11:51,460
And I wonder if the badge is going to be wearing his fucking patented razor blade neck chain.

199
00:11:51,460 --> 00:11:52,460
Let's have a look at that and see.

200
00:11:52,460 --> 00:11:54,460
Bruno, thank you very much for the tip.

201
00:11:54,460 --> 00:11:55,460
They got yourself a bacon roll.

202
00:11:55,460 --> 00:11:59,460
I'll be getting myself a fucking sausage and pudding roll there after this.

203
00:11:59,460 --> 00:12:03,460
And joining us now, some familiar faces from Computer Chronicles.

204
00:12:03,460 --> 00:12:06,460
Jan Lewis, Tim Baharan and back with us Paul Schindler.

205
00:12:06,460 --> 00:12:07,460
Jan, we're going to start with you.

206
00:12:07,460 --> 00:12:08,460
We're talking about Macintosh.

207
00:12:08,460 --> 00:12:09,460
Sorry, what's her name?

208
00:12:09,460 --> 00:12:10,460
Jan, is it?

209
00:12:11,460 --> 00:12:14,460
And joining us now, some familiar faces from Computer Chronicles.

210
00:12:14,460 --> 00:12:17,460
Jan Lewis, Tim Baharan and back with us Paul Schindler.

211
00:12:17,460 --> 00:12:18,460
Jan, we're going to start with you.

212
00:12:18,460 --> 00:12:20,460
We're talking about Macintosh products.

213
00:12:20,460 --> 00:12:21,460
Great products of the year.

214
00:12:21,460 --> 00:12:22,460
What are you going to start with?

215
00:12:22,460 --> 00:12:24,460
Well, Tristan is a pinball game.

216
00:12:24,460 --> 00:12:26,460
And I think it's the best one on the market.

217
00:12:26,460 --> 00:12:29,460
I've been following these since they came out because I happen to love them.

218
00:12:29,460 --> 00:12:35,460
Jan is, she's really into the fucking stuff, the software that she's clinging here.

219
00:12:35,460 --> 00:12:38,460
And she's got kind of on edge.

220
00:12:38,460 --> 00:12:44,460
And I wonder whether or not that's Stuart Shaffey's rub off style as rubbed off on her.

221
00:12:44,460 --> 00:12:50,460
Maybe she gets very nervous when she comes on the show because she's moving stuff around fast.

222
00:12:50,460 --> 00:12:54,460
You can hear kind of an edginess in the voice when she's, and now she's about to play pinball.

223
00:12:54,460 --> 00:12:56,460
This lady is about to play pinball.

224
00:12:56,460 --> 00:12:57,460
God knows why.

225
00:12:57,460 --> 00:13:01,460
And God knows how she's that interested in it because not a great game.

226
00:13:01,460 --> 00:13:02,460
Pinball dreams.

227
00:13:02,460 --> 00:13:03,460
Pinball on the PC.

228
00:13:03,460 --> 00:13:04,460
Take a look at this.

229
00:13:04,460 --> 00:13:06,460
Tosh products, great products of the year.

230
00:13:06,460 --> 00:13:07,460
What are you going to start?

231
00:13:07,460 --> 00:13:09,460
Take a look at this, she.

232
00:13:09,460 --> 00:13:11,460
Oh, we got some pinball here, she.

233
00:13:11,460 --> 00:13:13,460
Well, Tristan is a pinball game.

234
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:15,460
And I think it's the best one on the market.

235
00:13:15,460 --> 00:13:17,460
I've been following these since they came out because I happen to love them.

236
00:13:17,460 --> 00:13:22,460
But if you take a look at this, the physics on this are exactly like a real pinball machine.

237
00:13:22,460 --> 00:13:24,460
It doesn't look great at all.

238
00:13:24,460 --> 00:13:28,460
The physics do not look great even from the very first moment you see the ball.

239
00:13:28,460 --> 00:13:32,460
If you take a look at this, the physics on this are exactly like a real pinball machine.

240
00:13:32,460 --> 00:13:35,460
And you've got the flippers and they're conveniently located on the keyboard.

241
00:13:35,460 --> 00:13:36,460
That's not that bad actually.

242
00:13:36,460 --> 00:13:43,460
There was a bit of a speed slowdown there on that.

243
00:13:43,460 --> 00:13:46,460
We just see here, wait a sec, right there.

244
00:13:46,460 --> 00:13:55,460
The physics there, when it goes into the roller, it's an unnatural speed when it goes into that roller selection there.

245
00:13:55,460 --> 00:13:59,460
So it was let down because the bouncing around bit, it seemed to be good.

246
00:13:59,460 --> 00:14:01,460
It looked like good physics.

247
00:14:01,460 --> 00:14:08,460
But when it went into that collection, the collection channel, whatever you call that, it was bad physics.

248
00:14:08,460 --> 00:14:09,460
Look at this.

249
00:14:09,460 --> 00:14:12,460
The physics on this are exactly like a real pinball machine.

250
00:14:12,460 --> 00:14:15,460
And you've got the flippers and they're conveniently located on the keyboard.

251
00:14:15,460 --> 00:14:23,460
In fact, there's a story that the president of Bali was actually using this game and for a moment forgot that he was not using a real pinball game.

252
00:14:23,460 --> 00:14:25,460
I highly doubt that as well.

253
00:14:25,460 --> 00:14:30,460
The president of Bali was playing this and thought, whoa, this is not a computer game.

254
00:14:30,460 --> 00:14:31,460
It's real.

255
00:14:31,460 --> 00:14:33,460
There's a real ball inside this screen here.

256
00:14:33,460 --> 00:14:34,460
Really a wonderful one.

257
00:14:34,460 --> 00:14:41,460
You can also lock up a ball, lock up a couple of balls and actually get a multi ball lock up going, which can be really exciting.

258
00:14:41,460 --> 00:14:42,460
You're right there.

259
00:14:42,460 --> 00:14:52,460
The only time you would play this, you're correct in saying, is when you're bored in school and you're using computers for whatever and you just DOS on the computer.

260
00:14:52,460 --> 00:14:55,460
playing the fucking pinball game or solid air.

261
00:14:55,460 --> 00:14:58,460
You lose, but that one's going to be locked up there for a while.

262
00:14:58,460 --> 00:14:59,460
Comes down there.

263
00:14:59,460 --> 00:15:01,460
Do a little nudging of it.

264
00:15:01,460 --> 00:15:02,460
And it's, um...

265
00:15:02,460 --> 00:15:03,460
It's a pinball.

266
00:15:03,460 --> 00:15:05,460
Solid state pinball.

267
00:15:05,460 --> 00:15:06,460
It's a really marvelous eye.

268
00:15:06,460 --> 00:15:07,460
Alright, what else, Jan?

269
00:15:07,460 --> 00:15:08,460
Okay.

270
00:15:08,460 --> 00:15:09,460
Thank you very much, Captain Saki.

271
00:15:09,460 --> 00:15:13,460
And there was a lovely Shafi had no more time for her pinball chat.

272
00:15:13,460 --> 00:15:15,460
Alright, what else, Jan?

273
00:15:15,460 --> 00:15:16,460
Um...

274
00:15:16,460 --> 00:15:21,460
So you can see where Jan has been on before and she's edgy as fuck now because she's gonna be...

275
00:15:21,460 --> 00:15:25,460
She's gonna be, you're about to see, on the receiving end of some Shafi, Hustle and Harry.

276
00:15:25,460 --> 00:15:26,460
It's...

277
00:15:26,460 --> 00:15:27,460
It's magical.

278
00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:28,460
It's just like a real pinball game.

279
00:15:28,460 --> 00:15:30,460
The physics are really marvelous on it.

280
00:15:30,460 --> 00:15:31,460
Alright, what else, Jan?

281
00:15:31,460 --> 00:15:32,460
Okay, let me quit out of this.

282
00:15:32,460 --> 00:15:33,460
And, um...

283
00:15:33,460 --> 00:15:34,460
What I'm gonna show you is...

284
00:15:34,460 --> 00:15:35,460
Get to the point, Jan.

285
00:15:35,460 --> 00:15:40,460
You probably have seen the product Quicken because it has been a PC product.

286
00:15:40,460 --> 00:15:49,460
But what happens is they've done it for the Macintosh and it's actually even better, I think, than the one on the PC because it does have the Macintosh interface, etc.

287
00:15:49,460 --> 00:15:56,460
So you've got your normal things, your checkbooks, your splits on the checkbooks, various types of reports, etc.

288
00:15:56,460 --> 00:15:57,460
Um...

289
00:15:57,460 --> 00:15:58,460
Different accounts that you can open.

290
00:15:58,460 --> 00:16:03,460
I just, for instance, this morning opened a BCCI Visa Gold account with a $2 million credit line.

291
00:16:03,460 --> 00:16:05,460
Well, I won't say anything about that.

292
00:16:05,460 --> 00:16:07,460
Alright, we have time for one more thing from you, Jan.

293
00:16:07,460 --> 00:16:08,460
Alright, alright, one more.

294
00:16:08,460 --> 00:16:16,460
Why don't they bring a show out nowadays that does this sort of stuff where they have, like, a panel and they show their favourite software on a screen and the fucking thing.

295
00:16:16,460 --> 00:16:18,460
Like, nobody does that now.

296
00:16:18,460 --> 00:16:19,460
I kind of like that.

297
00:16:19,460 --> 00:16:21,460
And this is ironic because a couple of years ago...

298
00:16:21,460 --> 00:16:26,460
It'd all be just the realm of YouTube where everyone is one person doing the whole thing.

299
00:16:26,460 --> 00:16:30,460
Like, but, uh, I suppose it's too much production value that's gone into this, you know?

300
00:16:30,460 --> 00:16:36,460
There's lights, camera, people on the clock, production manager, floor manager, cameras, sound, the whole shebang.

301
00:16:36,460 --> 00:16:42,460
I actually showed this as sort of the lead segment, the DigiVideo television board that you could put into your PC.

302
00:16:42,460 --> 00:16:45,460
And that was about a $700 product.

303
00:16:45,460 --> 00:16:53,460
Well, somebody has bought up that inventory of the company and they're actually selling the exact same board we showed as a $700 product for something like $89.

304
00:16:53,460 --> 00:16:54,460
Oh, my goodness.

305
00:16:54,460 --> 00:16:55,460
I think it's wonderful.

306
00:16:55,460 --> 00:16:56,460
Do you have examples to show us here?

307
00:16:56,460 --> 00:16:58,460
Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.

308
00:16:58,460 --> 00:17:01,460
Let me just show you some of the stuff that I've taken on my board at home.

309
00:17:01,460 --> 00:17:04,460
I have my board at home that's on basically all the time.

310
00:17:04,460 --> 00:17:06,460
And I just...

311
00:17:06,460 --> 00:17:09,460
The one I happen to have here is just various football pictures I've done.

312
00:17:09,460 --> 00:17:13,460
I have pictures of the Gulf War and I have pictures of the Russian coup.

313
00:17:13,460 --> 00:17:15,460
So you take your camcorder or whatever, plug it in?

314
00:17:15,460 --> 00:17:16,460
You can do your camcorder.

315
00:17:16,460 --> 00:17:17,460
This is straight off the air.

316
00:17:17,460 --> 00:17:18,460
This is really her collection.

317
00:17:18,460 --> 00:17:19,460
This is my cable.

318
00:17:19,460 --> 00:17:20,460
I plug my cable in.

319
00:17:20,460 --> 00:17:24,460
This is really her collection of football player JPEGs that she has.

320
00:17:24,460 --> 00:17:27,460
...up the right hand corner with the sound off.

321
00:17:27,460 --> 00:17:29,460
Well, if I wanted to work with the sound off.

322
00:17:29,460 --> 00:17:30,460
And you say it's about $89 now?

323
00:17:30,460 --> 00:17:31,460
It's about $89 now.

324
00:17:31,460 --> 00:17:33,460
Paul, give me back control.

325
00:17:33,460 --> 00:17:34,460
Thanks very much.

326
00:17:34,460 --> 00:17:36,460
I'm going to start with Fractal Design Painter.

327
00:17:36,460 --> 00:17:39,460
Now, it's $400 from Fractal Design Corporation in Apkos, California.

328
00:17:39,460 --> 00:17:40,460
This is the packaging.

329
00:17:40,460 --> 00:17:42,460
It comes in a paint can.

330
00:17:42,460 --> 00:17:46,460
Now, I've seen more expensive Macintosh programs that do this, but I have never seen one at

331
00:17:46,460 --> 00:17:49,460
this price range with this range of tools.

332
00:17:49,460 --> 00:17:54,460
So you draw with a pencil on here and then you can take water and create a kind of a water

333
00:17:54,460 --> 00:17:57,460
effect if you grab it properly.

334
00:17:57,460 --> 00:17:59,460
And when you take the water, you see it smears it.

335
00:17:59,460 --> 00:18:01,460
So you've got pencil, eraser.

336
00:18:01,460 --> 00:18:02,460
Those are standard things.

337
00:18:02,460 --> 00:18:07,460
But you've got water, you've got chalk, you've got charcoal, felt pens, crayons, and an airbrush.

338
00:18:07,460 --> 00:18:09,460
It is for the price.

339
00:18:09,460 --> 00:18:10,460
You've got chalk.

340
00:18:10,460 --> 00:18:11,460
It is just absolutely.

341
00:18:11,460 --> 00:18:12,460
Thank you very much there, my nan.

342
00:18:12,460 --> 00:18:14,460
And the price again is $400.

343
00:18:14,460 --> 00:18:20,460
And that's going to be a real winner for the Macintosh art type market.

344
00:18:20,460 --> 00:18:22,460
Now, for people who are concerned about.

345
00:18:22,460 --> 00:18:23,460
Look at this.

346
00:18:23,460 --> 00:18:28,460
It's a sensual bit of ergonomic functionality here.

347
00:18:28,460 --> 00:18:35,460
What it looks like is a wrist rest, wrist support for some heavy duty wrist action.

348
00:18:35,460 --> 00:18:39,460
Those who are bound to a desk for a lot of time maybe.

349
00:18:39,460 --> 00:18:44,460
And Schindler knows that this is a real money shot product.

350
00:18:44,460 --> 00:18:57,460
I think before we even go on there, is he holding a bottle of perfume or is that a bit of lubricant that he's about to spray on his wrist before he locks in tight into this yoke?

351
00:18:57,460 --> 00:18:58,460
Clamps his wrist down.

352
00:18:58,460 --> 00:18:59,460
Clamps his wrist down.

353
00:18:59,460 --> 00:19:02,460
I'm hoping it's Schindler's wrist.

354
00:19:02,460 --> 00:19:03,460
Exactly.

355
00:19:03,460 --> 00:19:04,460
I am.

356
00:19:04,460 --> 00:19:08,460
I'm hoping that he does spray a bit of whatever that is.

357
00:19:08,460 --> 00:19:13,460
If it is spray, I hope it is spray and he puts it on his hand before he goes into there for some reason.

358
00:19:13,460 --> 00:19:16,460
But I doubt we'll be that lucky.

359
00:19:16,460 --> 00:19:18,460
For the Macintosh art type market.

360
00:19:18,460 --> 00:19:24,460
Now, for people who are concerned about their arm strain, big heavy mouse users.

361
00:19:24,460 --> 00:19:25,460
Oh, it's his glasses.

362
00:19:25,460 --> 00:19:27,460
I'm a big heavy anything user.

363
00:19:27,460 --> 00:19:31,460
You put your arm on the rest here and you mouse around on this pad.

364
00:19:31,460 --> 00:19:32,460
Beautiful.

365
00:19:32,460 --> 00:19:38,460
It's, uh, there's an air of intrepidation about that.

366
00:19:38,460 --> 00:19:41,460
Let's have a look at that again in slow-mo with some ominous music.

367
00:19:41,460 --> 00:19:42,460
You put your arm on the-

368
00:19:42,460 --> 00:19:57,460
The night at nine on dispatches.

369
00:19:57,460 --> 00:20:02,460
She didn't lose wrist.

370
00:20:02,460 --> 00:20:05,460
What did he mean by this wrist?

371
00:20:05,460 --> 00:20:08,460
Where did he buy it?

372
00:20:08,460 --> 00:20:10,460
And who is he selling it to?

373
00:20:10,460 --> 00:20:14,460
The night at nine on four.

374
00:20:14,460 --> 00:20:15,460
I'm a big heavy anything user.

375
00:20:15,460 --> 00:20:17,460
Uh, you, uh, you put your arm on the rest here and you mouse around on this pad.

376
00:20:17,460 --> 00:20:34,460
This is the Myonetics Armex from, uh, Myonetics in Melbourne, Florida.

377
00:20:34,460 --> 00:20:35,460
It's just $95 now.

378
00:20:35,460 --> 00:20:39,460
It's not designed to be a carpal tunnel syndrome or a repetitive syndrome.

379
00:20:39,460 --> 00:20:42,460
It's got a nice bit of suspension on it.

380
00:20:42,460 --> 00:20:48,460
And look, it's, uh, it's a nice bit of shop where she, she's not even arse.

381
00:20:48,460 --> 00:20:54,460
She's lining up her next bit of, uh, technology and the badge, the badger himself.

382
00:20:54,460 --> 00:20:55,460
He's not even looking.

383
00:20:55,460 --> 00:20:59,460
And look, the two of these, I don't feel great chemistry with, uh, with Schindler.

384
00:20:59,460 --> 00:21:04,460
Maybe they're set, they're set on the other side cause they, they're not on the same league or level.

385
00:21:04,460 --> 00:21:07,460
Or maybe Schindler's doesn't really vibe with these two.

386
00:21:07,460 --> 00:21:12,460
But, uh, Stu's doing a great job of looking concerned about this wrist thing.

387
00:21:12,460 --> 00:21:16,460
And, uh, yeah, it's an interesting bit of business.

388
00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:18,460
It's got some great suspension on it.

389
00:21:18,460 --> 00:21:19,460
I don't know if you've seen that there.

390
00:21:19,460 --> 00:21:20,460
Look at that.

391
00:21:20,460 --> 00:21:23,460
It went to the end to be a car.

392
00:21:23,460 --> 00:21:24,460
Look at that.

393
00:21:24,460 --> 00:21:25,460
Whoa.

394
00:21:25,460 --> 00:21:27,460
Great shock absorption on that.

395
00:21:27,460 --> 00:21:28,460
That's great.

396
00:21:28,460 --> 00:21:31,460
A lot of maintenance, I'd say.

397
00:21:31,460 --> 00:21:34,460
You'd have to bring it in and get it NCT'd every year.

398
00:21:34,460 --> 00:21:35,460
Right.

399
00:21:35,460 --> 00:21:37,460
Fucking wrist technician or wrist mechanic.

400
00:21:39,460 --> 00:21:40,460
Pure shock absorption.

401
00:21:42,460 --> 00:21:44,460
And, you know, what environment would this be necessary?

402
00:21:44,460 --> 00:21:56,460
You'd have to ask yourself that, you know, you, is he doing work in the back of a truck going over fucking bumpy roads and stuff and he's having to, you know, do word documents and spreadsheets and shit.

403
00:21:56,460 --> 00:21:57,460
I'm not sure.

404
00:21:57,460 --> 00:22:00,460
It's just like a purple tunnel syndrome or repetitive stress injury.

405
00:22:00,460 --> 00:22:01,460
It's...

406
00:22:01,460 --> 00:22:02,460
Pure dynamics is right, Eric.

407
00:22:02,460 --> 00:22:04,460
It's, uh, just arm strain reduction.

408
00:22:04,460 --> 00:22:05,460
Just for comfort.

409
00:22:05,460 --> 00:22:06,460
And it's fantastic.

410
00:22:06,460 --> 00:22:07,460
Just for comfort.

411
00:22:07,460 --> 00:22:08,460
And you could get tired at the end of the day.

412
00:22:08,460 --> 00:22:14,460
Now, the other part of you that can get tired at the end of the day from working on a PC, uh, you know, no heavy lifting, but your eyes can get tired.

413
00:22:14,460 --> 00:22:16,460
We know that the PC generation is graying.

414
00:22:16,460 --> 00:22:17,460
Okay.

415
00:22:17,460 --> 00:22:18,460
And I know a lot of people, I don't wear glasses.

416
00:22:18,460 --> 00:22:22,460
I have a lot of friends that do, and they sit there all the time switching back between...

417
00:22:22,460 --> 00:22:23,460
One set of glasses for this.

418
00:22:23,460 --> 00:22:24,460
One set of glasses for this.

419
00:22:24,460 --> 00:22:25,460
One set of glasses for this.

420
00:22:25,460 --> 00:22:36,460
Now, these are, uh, uh, these are lineless trifocals with a bottom part for reading the desk, a middle part for reading the screen, and a top part for reading your bulletin board or your clock on the wall.

421
00:22:36,460 --> 00:22:39,140
Top fart. I think he said top fart.

422
00:22:40,500 --> 00:22:41,700
Beautiful stuff.

423
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,960
An absolute clusterfuck of a mistake to make.

424
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:51,200
If you're going to mispronounce something, make sure when you mispronounce it,

425
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:59,340
it isn't the word fart or any rude word because it truly, madly, deeply is the wrong thing.

426
00:22:59,380 --> 00:23:01,400
Let's see if I was right there. Let's see.

427
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:09,680
These are lineless trifocals with a bottom part for reading the desk, a middle part for reading the screen and a top part.

428
00:23:11,540 --> 00:23:17,580
The problem was they were saying it's a middle part for something, a bottom part for something.

429
00:23:17,740 --> 00:23:20,580
So there was the B's and the F's.

430
00:23:21,500 --> 00:23:25,460
And he just got to the third and final one and it was a fuck up.

431
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:31,820
With a bottom part for reading the desk, a middle part for reading the screen and a top part for reading.

432
00:23:31,820 --> 00:23:33,740
Your bulletin board or your clock on the wall.

433
00:23:33,940 --> 00:23:38,400
And there's no particular price for that, but they're from American Optical in Southbridge, Massachusetts.

434
00:23:38,660 --> 00:23:42,220
And it's called the True Vision Technica set of glasses.

435
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:43,220
Glasses for the computer user.

436
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,320
Glasses for the computer user.

437
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:44,780
Okay.

438
00:23:44,780 --> 00:23:45,380
Take care.

439
00:23:45,380 --> 00:24:07,140
Tim, you're on.

440
00:24:07,140 --> 00:24:09,260
This is the new power book from Apple.

441
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,680
The new notebook computer from them.

442
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:12,900
How shit does that look?

443
00:24:13,060 --> 00:24:14,260
The power book from Apple.

444
00:24:14,420 --> 00:24:17,100
It's a fucking Fisher Price plunk fest.

445
00:24:17,360 --> 00:24:17,800
You're on.

446
00:24:17,940 --> 00:24:19,960
This is the new power book from Apple.

447
00:24:20,380 --> 00:24:22,440
The new notebook computer from them.

448
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,100
Model 170 retails for about $45.95.

449
00:24:25,500 --> 00:24:26,140
It's actually...

450
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,520
It's got a Powerball in it as well.

451
00:24:30,060 --> 00:24:32,680
I'd say these things probably go on eBay for fucking...

452
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:33,960
Fuck tons.

453
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,960
Model 170 retails for about $45.95.

454
00:24:37,380 --> 00:24:44,380
It's actually a very good notebook class machine compatible with all of the Macintosh software that exists out there.

455
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,000
It's really designed to be a productivity machine at that price especially.

456
00:24:49,300 --> 00:24:50,520
Well, Tim, I just want to take issue.

457
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,060
I think it's really designed...

458
00:24:52,060 --> 00:24:54,280
Was there a dog barking in the background there?

459
00:24:54,380 --> 00:24:57,660
And there's an issue taken there with the 1930s woman.

460
00:24:58,100 --> 00:24:58,580
Listen to this.

461
00:24:58,580 --> 00:24:58,680
Sorry.

462
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,720
With all of the Macintosh software that exists out there.

463
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,320
It's really designed to be a productivity machine at that price especially.

464
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:08,680
Just there.

465
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:09,800
Tim, I just want to take issue.

466
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:10,100
Just there.

467
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:10,680
I think it's...

468
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,360
It's designed to be a productivity machine at that price especially.

469
00:25:13,700 --> 00:25:14,960
Well, Tim, I just want to take issue.

470
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:15,360
I...

471
00:25:15,360 --> 00:25:18,280
I wonder if there's a piece of technology coming up that...

472
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:23,380
Maybe Sturvey is playing a fucking game that has a dog on it or something.

473
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,940
Okay, coming up, we got this dog software here.

474
00:25:26,940 --> 00:25:29,300
I think it's really designed to be the world's best game boy.

475
00:25:29,300 --> 00:25:30,660
You play games on it.

476
00:25:30,660 --> 00:25:30,980
That's right.

477
00:25:30,980 --> 00:25:31,100
Yes.

478
00:25:31,100 --> 00:25:31,920
Very expensive.

479
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,580
But again, it's a good machine.

480
00:25:33,580 --> 00:25:38,520
It's a special good improvement over the 15-pound portable they produced originally.

481
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,180
Another product that I've run across is called a Power Bundle.

482
00:25:43,180 --> 00:25:43,480
Mm-hmm.

483
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:53,700
Now, this is from Teammaker, and this is an excellent product that has right now business expense report, address book plus, click art faxes, and America Online.

484
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:58,120
So it's about a $580 value, but for $249.

485
00:25:58,120 --> 00:26:01,120
And basically, they even give you the case.

486
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:01,840
And you open it up.

487
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,080
But you don't get when you buy the Power Bundle.

488
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:03,440
That's right.

489
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:04,620
And all the software is there.

490
00:26:04,620 --> 00:26:04,620
Software is there.

491
00:26:04,620 --> 00:26:05,000
Sofware is there.

492
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,620
Excellent product for that price point.

493
00:26:06,620 --> 00:26:07,980
Tim, now what are these dogs barking?

494
00:26:07,980 --> 00:26:09,760
These cats yelling over here.

495
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:09,940
All right.

496
00:26:09,940 --> 00:26:10,400
We heard it.

497
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:10,740
We heard it.

498
00:26:10,740 --> 00:26:10,740
We heard it.

499
00:26:10,740 --> 00:26:13,380
This is a product called SimAnt from Maxis.

500
00:26:13,380 --> 00:26:18,340
Now, these are the guys that do SimEarth and SimCity that so many people get addicted to.

501
00:26:18,340 --> 00:26:23,440
It's an excellent product that teaches entomology about ants and how they live and work and play.

502
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,580
And what we have here on the screen is one of their goals.

503
00:26:27,580 --> 00:26:29,620
Their goals is to get into this house.

504
00:26:29,620 --> 00:26:30,180
So you're an ant.

505
00:26:30,180 --> 00:26:30,740
That's right.

506
00:26:30,740 --> 00:26:31,340
I'm an ant.

507
00:26:31,340 --> 00:26:35,060
I want to get into the house, and I want to devour it as much as possible.

508
00:26:35,060 --> 00:26:38,760
And here is the patch of land that I happen to be living on right now.

509
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:48,040
And what I'm going to be doing is I'm going to be simulating the different places that the ants would live and work and have to actually come together.

510
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:53,980
But their whole view in life is to try to live long enough to get into that house and take it over.

511
00:26:53,980 --> 00:26:54,980
Another great game.

512
00:26:54,980 --> 00:26:54,980
Yes.

513
00:26:54,980 --> 00:26:55,380
All right.

514
00:26:55,380 --> 00:26:55,980
I just have a couple.

515
00:26:55,980 --> 00:26:57,200
So you're an ant.

516
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,400
Green is how the SimAnt from Maxis.

517
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:11,400
Wow.

518
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:18,100
Now these are the guys that do SimEarth and SimCity that so many people get addicted to.

519
00:27:18,100 --> 00:27:23,160
It's an excellent product that teaches entomology about ants and how they live and work and play.

520
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:24,700
And what...

521
00:27:24,700 --> 00:27:26,540
So you're an ant.

522
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,580
We have here on the screen...

523
00:27:28,580 --> 00:27:29,520
So you're an ant.

524
00:27:29,700 --> 00:27:31,080
...is one of their goals.

525
00:27:31,140 --> 00:27:33,120
Their goals is to get into this house.

526
00:27:33,220 --> 00:27:33,700
So you're an ant.

527
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:34,240
That's right.

528
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:34,800
I'm an ant.

529
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,560
I want to get into the house and I want to devour it as much as possible.

530
00:27:38,860 --> 00:27:42,280
And here is the patch of land that I happen to be living on right now.

531
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,740
And what I'm going to be doing is...

532
00:27:44,740 --> 00:27:46,240
Where are the ants?

533
00:27:47,220 --> 00:27:54,240
I'm going to be simulating the different places that the ants would live and work and have to actually come together.

534
00:27:54,360 --> 00:28:00,020
But their whole view in life is to try to live long enough to get into that house and take it over.

535
00:28:00,260 --> 00:28:01,060
Another great game.

536
00:28:01,180 --> 00:28:01,380
Yes.

537
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:01,580
All right.

538
00:28:01,620 --> 00:28:03,360
I just have a couple of goodies I want to show off.

539
00:28:03,540 --> 00:28:05,000
One of them is on my wrist, matter of fact.

540
00:28:05,860 --> 00:28:07,860
And this is the new version of the wrist mac.

541
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,240
I think you may have seen this before.

542
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:10,460
Can we shut up the ants there, too?

543
00:28:10,460 --> 00:28:10,740
Yeah.

544
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:12,920
The wrist mac.

545
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,740
This is a watch, but really it's a sort of a computer that you can simply take this little clip thing on.

546
00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:18,980
Stick it over here.

547
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:19,820
That's it.

548
00:28:19,820 --> 00:28:19,860
No way.

549
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:20,900
It's not a USB.

550
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:21,580
Plug in.

551
00:28:21,580 --> 00:28:24,380
It's a smartwatch before the smartwatches.

552
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,660
Into your mac and you have a little local area network going.

553
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:27,220
You can download.

554
00:28:27,460 --> 00:28:30,540
This actually keeps five separate file folders in here with all kinds of information.

555
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:31,940
It's really quite terrific.

556
00:28:32,060 --> 00:28:32,760
It's about $200.

557
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,800
The new version of the wrist mac comes bundled with HyperCard 2.

558
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:36,760
It runs under HyperCard.

559
00:28:36,860 --> 00:28:38,940
Very simple to use interface.

560
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:40,440
But it doesn't...

561
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,700
He's not showing us what it does.

562
00:28:42,300 --> 00:28:43,380
And is it a wrist mac?

563
00:28:43,420 --> 00:28:44,640
Is it made by Macintosh?

564
00:28:45,540 --> 00:28:47,060
So it's the first iWatch.

565
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:48,020
Apple Watch.

566
00:28:50,020 --> 00:28:55,140
This is a watch, but really it's a sort of a computer that you can simply take this little clip thing on.

567
00:28:55,500 --> 00:28:56,360
Stick it over here.

568
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:57,240
That's it.

569
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,860
Plug into your mac and you have a little local area network going.

570
00:28:59,940 --> 00:29:00,400
You can download.

571
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,720
This actually keeps five separate file folders in here with all kinds of information.

572
00:29:04,180 --> 00:29:05,140
It's really quite terrific.

573
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:05,960
It's about $200.

574
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,740
The new version of the wrist mac comes bundled with HyperCard.

575
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,480
$200 fucking quid.

576
00:29:10,580 --> 00:29:12,440
Like, can you pay that now for a smartwatch?

577
00:29:12,660 --> 00:29:13,860
It runs under HyperCard.

578
00:29:13,940 --> 00:29:15,860
Very simple to use interface.

579
00:29:16,820 --> 00:29:18,120
This is kind of neat.

580
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,000
I don't know if you've seen this.

581
00:29:19,100 --> 00:29:19,940
This is...

582
00:29:19,940 --> 00:29:22,000
Looks like a floppy disk, a piece of software.

583
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,820
But in fact, it's a calculator.

584
00:29:24,140 --> 00:29:25,420
It's a solar calculator.

585
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,120
Would you look at that?

586
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,240
Fucking floppy disk calculator.

587
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:31,100
Unbelievable stuff.

588
00:29:33,100 --> 00:29:34,140
That is just...

589
00:29:34,140 --> 00:29:35,120
How did you think of that?

590
00:29:36,020 --> 00:29:37,560
When would you need to use that, though?

591
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,800
Because presumably if you've got a computer there, you could just use the computer to calculate stuff.

592
00:29:43,300 --> 00:29:44,400
There's the solar cell.

593
00:29:44,500 --> 00:29:45,060
There's the screen.

594
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:45,700
There's the numbers.

595
00:29:46,020 --> 00:29:47,000
It's a great little item.

596
00:29:47,100 --> 00:29:49,420
It's just sort of fun to carry around and give to people for gifts or whatever.

597
00:29:49,780 --> 00:29:50,260
Last thing.

598
00:29:50,340 --> 00:29:52,760
This is the weirdest Mac product of the year.

599
00:29:53,140 --> 00:29:55,600
A CD-ROM, no less, called About Cows.

600
00:29:56,020 --> 00:30:00,580
And just to read from the back, it contains full-text database about one of nature's most wonderful beasts.

601
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:03,580
It contains color images of various bovine poses.

602
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:04,820
Beasts.

603
00:30:04,820 --> 00:30:06,520
So if you're really into cows...

604
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,320
Wonderful beasts.

605
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:08,500
...you can get everything you ever wanted to know on a CD-ROM.

606
00:30:08,580 --> 00:30:09,960
600 megabytes of cows.

607
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,360
Anyhow, that's it for now.

608
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:15,120
How about that?

609
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:18,400
All right.

610
00:30:18,460 --> 00:30:19,940
One of you wanted to know on a CD-ROM poses.

611
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,040
About one of nature's most wonderful beasts.

612
00:30:22,140 --> 00:30:25,060
It contains color images of various bovine poses.

613
00:30:25,700 --> 00:30:27,800
Where is the front cover?

614
00:30:27,940 --> 00:30:30,420
It's just there's no cover for the fucking front bed.

615
00:30:30,460 --> 00:30:31,320
You just see the disc.

616
00:30:31,700 --> 00:30:35,760
So if you're really into cows, you can get everything you ever wanted to know on a CD-ROM.

617
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,220
600 megabytes of cows.

618
00:30:37,220 --> 00:30:37,720
Anyhow...

619
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,640
600 megabytes of pure cow action, Steve.

620
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:41,440
That's it for now.

621
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:42,240
All right.

622
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:48,900
One of the newest ways to shop for computer products is online, using the electronic malls on services like Prodigy and CompuServe.

623
00:30:48,900 --> 00:30:52,400
We check them both out to see the pros and cons of online shopping.

624
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:53,200
CompuMall.

625
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:58,160
If you're a Prodigy subscriber, you can buy computer products from a long list of vendors.

626
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:05,040
Merchants like Computer Express, Inacomp, Microsoft, Omni-Technics, Sharp, and Zios.

627
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:21,040
CompuServe also offers an extensive electronic shopping mall with hardware and software products available from companies like Broderbund, Mac Warehouse, Home Tech Depot, Dell, with PC Computing Magazine in Foster City, California.

628
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:22,720
He says he shops online.

629
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,180
Every book.

630
00:31:24,180 --> 00:31:24,180
Every book.

631
00:31:24,180 --> 00:31:27,220
...because he can do it from his desk, and it saves him time and money.

632
00:31:28,180 --> 00:31:33,300
Dale uses the electronic mall on CompuServe, where you can visit more than 100 different stores.

633
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,000
You can search for an item by product type or by store.

634
00:31:37,460 --> 00:31:43,000
You actually order the item online by giving your credit card number and delivery information.

635
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:50,420
The computer gives you a confirmation number so you can verify the transaction in case the product doesn't arrive as promised.

636
00:31:51,180 --> 00:31:57,240
Llewellyn says online shopping is great if you know what you want, but the lack of good graphics can be a problem.

637
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:03,960
There are some limitations today in the technology that make it difficult to do electronic and online shopping.

638
00:32:04,500 --> 00:32:08,100
One of them is you cannot see the product that you're about to purchase.

639
00:32:08,660 --> 00:32:13,320
There really is no good way to see graphical images of the product.

640
00:32:13,700 --> 00:32:19,580
But for off-the-shelf software products like Print Shop or Carmen Sandiego, that's not much of a problem.

641
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,520
With these Broderbund products, the vendor gets the order directly from CompuServe.

642
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:31,600
A clerk then turns over the printed order to the shipping department, and you can have the product delivered to your door the next day.

643
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:37,220
From the vendor's point of view, online sales are a natural way to sell computer products.

644
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:42,580
It's just another form of reaching our customers in another way.

645
00:32:42,580 --> 00:32:43,860
From Broderbund.

646
00:32:44,020 --> 00:32:47,800
Way to a store location or through the phone or mail.

647
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,160
Online shopping has lots of advantages.

648
00:32:50,700 --> 00:32:57,400
You can shop 24 hours a day, and you can comparison shop without driving all around town or walking your feet off.

649
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:02,320
But Dale Lewallen says online computer shopping is still in the early stages.

650
00:33:02,620 --> 00:33:07,360
I'm sure there's a wide variety of things that vendors have yet to do to attract your attention.

651
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:14,200
And the computer medium is wide open to give us a whole new range of shopping experiences, some good, some bad.

652
00:33:14,620 --> 00:33:17,360
For the Computer Chronicles, I'm Maria Gabriel.

653
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:38,240
And we're back again with Jan Lewis and Tim Baharan, Paul Schindler, and we're going to be looking at some of the best computer products of the year for the PC now.

654
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,040
And I guess, Paul, we're going to start with you this time.

655
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:40,520
All right.

656
00:33:40,660 --> 00:33:46,660
I really like the Farside Calendar, $70 from Amaze, Inc. in Kirkland, Washington.

657
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:52,580
This is a calendaring program suffused with that Gary Larson, Crazy Cows, Weird Evolution.

658
00:33:53,540 --> 00:33:57,780
It's got animated Gary Larson cartoons throughout it, and I just highly recommend it.

659
00:33:57,900 --> 00:33:58,400
Run it under windows.

660
00:33:58,500 --> 00:34:01,000
Run it under windows, which makes me really pleased.

661
00:34:01,220 --> 00:34:04,040
I also have the wedding planner.

662
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:05,700
This isn't my novelty item for this year.

663
00:34:05,740 --> 00:34:06,060
It's $50.

664
00:34:06,300 --> 00:34:08,080
I'm already married, but a lot of people aren't.

665
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,060
It was written by a husband and wife couple in order to help them do their own wedding.

666
00:34:12,500 --> 00:34:13,980
Divorce planners come in next year.

667
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:19,200
That's $50 from Ninja Software in Calgary, Canada.

668
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,120
You're bound to determine that when you get through this.

669
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:21,400
I know.

670
00:34:21,720 --> 00:34:26,300
Now, this is the Onyx, and this is a computer.

671
00:34:26,460 --> 00:34:33,700
Now, I know that's really hard to believe, but this is a full-scale computer.

672
00:34:33,700 --> 00:34:38,240
It's a 386SX, and the idea is not portability, because it takes a power supply.

673
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:38,700
Look at that.

674
00:34:38,700 --> 00:34:40,400
But this is a 12-inch diagonal screen.

675
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:41,680
The res on that.

676
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:43,860
It can be hung up on a wall.

677
00:34:44,180 --> 00:34:45,960
It only consumes 25 watts.

678
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:53,560
I mean, your standard PC consumes 150 or 200 watts, no fan, totally silent, a mouse, a keyboard, and a screen.

679
00:34:54,220 --> 00:34:54,860
It's a 386.

680
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:55,760
It's a 386.

681
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,940
It's $1,200, and it is the smallest computer I've ever seen.

682
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:01,200
It's like a zero-footprint computer.

683
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:02,560
A zero-footprint computer.

684
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:03,320
Amazing.

685
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:03,600
Amazing.

686
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:10,380
And then for those of us who do need portability, I brought the Samsonite DataBag NSX.

687
00:35:10,460 --> 00:35:10,980
Can you imagine that?

688
00:35:10,980 --> 00:35:11,300
Whoa.

689
00:35:12,340 --> 00:35:12,880
DataBag.

690
00:35:13,540 --> 00:35:14,300
One word.

691
00:35:15,060 --> 00:35:15,980
Remember the name.

692
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:17,760
Fucking DataBag.

693
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,040
Suitcases now have designations.

694
00:35:23,380 --> 00:35:24,300
It's $130.

695
00:35:25,240 --> 00:35:29,320
In fact, the Macintosh Portable, among other things, fits in it just fine.

696
00:35:29,660 --> 00:35:30,160
Great zipper.

697
00:35:30,300 --> 00:35:32,280
Pouches for everything you could possibly want.

698
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,800
And it's light, compact, and strong, and I highly recommend it for portable users.

699
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,180
Battle of the portable bags there, Tim.

700
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:40,560
Okay, your turn.

701
00:35:40,620 --> 00:35:41,020
What do you have?

702
00:35:41,720 --> 00:35:43,680
Funny one there, the portable bags.

703
00:35:44,180 --> 00:35:46,400
Battle of the portable bags there, Tim.

704
00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:47,680
Okay, your turn.

705
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:49,660
What do you have?

706
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,120
We have a WordStar for Windows.

707
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,520
Now, this is from a company that we've known for many years, and they were basically...

708
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:56,760
The way...

709
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,440
We have a...

710
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,740
Just leans into this, really gets into it by putting the chin on the...

711
00:36:02,740 --> 00:36:04,360
Resting the chin on the hand.

712
00:36:05,220 --> 00:36:05,580
Yeah.

713
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,340
Really, you can't wait to see what badge has brought to the table.

714
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:10,560
WordStar for Windows.

715
00:36:10,860 --> 00:36:14,580
Now, this is from a company that we've known for many years, and they were basically on the

716
00:36:14,580 --> 00:36:16,260
bleeding edge of technology for a long time.

717
00:36:16,860 --> 00:36:21,220
But they're coming back really strong with their first really solid Windows product, which

718
00:36:21,220 --> 00:36:22,380
is called WordStar for Windows.

719
00:36:22,940 --> 00:36:29,040
And it allows for a very strong WYSIWYG editing of any magnification, built-in grammar checker,

720
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,320
rich typography tools, and really a powerful layout.

721
00:36:33,460 --> 00:36:35,180
I mean, it'll hold its own against words.

722
00:36:35,180 --> 00:36:36,600
I see you've got it up on the screen here, huh?

723
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:36,860
Right.

724
00:36:36,860 --> 00:36:41,640
One of the interesting features is that I can actually edit graphics in the word processor.

725
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,940
I don't have to go out to the freehand program or whatever I drew it in.

726
00:36:44,940 --> 00:36:46,000
I can actually edit it.

727
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:46,740
All right.

728
00:36:46,740 --> 00:36:50,420
And as you can see, I have full page control of the object or the graphics itself.

729
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:55,140
And actually, if we had time, we'd go in here and we'd completely redesign this and redraw it

730
00:36:55,140 --> 00:36:55,820
if we wanted to.

731
00:36:55,980 --> 00:36:56,820
Inside the word processor.

732
00:36:56,820 --> 00:36:57,700
Inside the word processor.

733
00:36:57,700 --> 00:36:58,660
It's a really nice feature.

734
00:36:58,860 --> 00:36:59,060
Okay.

735
00:36:59,100 --> 00:36:59,380
What else?

736
00:36:59,720 --> 00:37:00,580
This is $4.95.

737
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,120
And I guess they've got a special.

738
00:37:02,300 --> 00:37:06,320
If you send in one of the competitive products, you can get it for $129.

739
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:07,840
All right.

740
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:08,140
What else?

741
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:12,360
The other product that I'm really intrigued with is this particular little product, which

742
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,480
is the Macronix fax modem.

743
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,060
It's a little portable device from Macronix.

744
00:37:19,240 --> 00:37:23,840
And I like this because when I go on the road, so often I would like to send a fax.

745
00:37:23,980 --> 00:37:27,820
And so I will use this as a modem, but I will also use it a fax.

746
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:32,000
But what's even more fascinating is that I don't make a printer with me on the road.

747
00:37:32,060 --> 00:37:37,280
So what I will do is when I'm up in my hotel room, I'll fax the hotel and have them get

748
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:37,920
my print out.

749
00:37:37,980 --> 00:37:39,420
And then I'll go downstairs and get it for editing.

750
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:40,820
Great little product for $3.95.

751
00:37:41,180 --> 00:37:41,480
Okay.

752
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,700
Jan, before we get to you, a couple weird things I want to talk about.

753
00:37:44,780 --> 00:37:46,020
This is rather...

754
00:37:46,020 --> 00:37:47,340
Imagine it got really dark.

755
00:37:47,900 --> 00:37:51,860
You just started bringing up some old fucking dark stories from the past.

756
00:37:52,060 --> 00:37:53,380
Something weird, actually, Jan.

757
00:37:53,620 --> 00:37:55,600
Yesterday when I seen you leaving the studio.

758
00:37:56,020 --> 00:37:57,560
Thank you very much to James Cameron.

759
00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:58,560
Stroudner, Newport.

760
00:37:58,640 --> 00:37:58,940
Okay.

761
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,160
Will you be checking out my new film, Avatar 2?

762
00:38:02,540 --> 00:38:04,600
The Way of the Water of the Coconut.

763
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:06,280
I don't think I will.

764
00:38:06,860 --> 00:38:09,620
I went to see the first one when it came out in 3D.

765
00:38:10,260 --> 00:38:12,280
And it was forgettable.

766
00:38:12,580 --> 00:38:13,540
Largely forgettable.

767
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,460
I mean, it made a visual impact, but I don't really fucking...

768
00:38:17,460 --> 00:38:19,380
Couldn't really tell you what the story was about again.

769
00:38:19,460 --> 00:38:21,620
Some blue people and a fucking...

770
00:38:21,620 --> 00:38:23,240
On the planet, is it?

771
00:38:23,980 --> 00:38:25,980
Humans trying to fucking...

772
00:38:25,980 --> 00:38:27,220
Deforestize them, is it?

773
00:38:30,260 --> 00:38:31,080
I don't know, man.

774
00:38:31,580 --> 00:38:32,340
And now they're in...

775
00:38:32,340 --> 00:38:34,100
Are they in water now, is it?

776
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:35,700
They're in the sea now, yeah?

777
00:38:37,860 --> 00:38:38,460
Underwater, is it?

778
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,120
I don't think I'll...

779
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,340
I don't think I'll go see it.

780
00:38:41,620 --> 00:38:43,160
Jan, before we get to you, a couple weird...

781
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:43,960
For editing.

782
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,420
Great little product for $3.95.

783
00:38:45,620 --> 00:38:47,480
Thank you very much, fair city, Fran.

784
00:38:47,700 --> 00:38:47,980
Okay.

785
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,220
Jan, before we get to you, a couple weird things I want to talk about.

786
00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:52,080
This is...

787
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:52,820
Okay, Jan.

788
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,440
How do you explain this?

789
00:38:55,500 --> 00:38:58,660
It's a rather extraordinary new program called I Hate Algebra from T-Maker.

790
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:00,560
Sound false there.

791
00:39:00,900 --> 00:39:02,940
It's a different kind of spreadsheet for...

792
00:39:02,940 --> 00:39:03,600
Say that again.

793
00:39:03,820 --> 00:39:04,920
High-pitched sound false.

794
00:39:04,980 --> 00:39:06,960
...called I Hate Algebra from T-Maker.

795
00:39:07,240 --> 00:39:09,680
It's a different kind of spreadsheet for Windows.

796
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,580
And I don't know if you can see this, but instead of having to do formulas,

797
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,100
you actually have cells which are operators and cells which are numbers which guide you

798
00:39:17,100 --> 00:39:18,200
which cell you want to go to.

799
00:39:18,620 --> 00:39:21,540
It's rather fascinating, and it's very, very inexpensive.

800
00:39:21,660 --> 00:39:24,040
I think it's $39.95 as an introductory product.

801
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:24,700
Quite unusual.

802
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:25,980
This is screen...

803
00:39:25,980 --> 00:39:27,200
Quite unusual.

804
00:39:27,460 --> 00:39:28,200
Quite unusual.

805
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,080
We have a lot of screensavers out there now.

806
00:39:31,180 --> 00:39:34,200
This is an animated screensaver that you can edit and actually create.

807
00:39:34,660 --> 00:39:39,360
How fucking many screensaver software packages are they going to review?

808
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:46,500
People must have just loved screensavers.

809
00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:48,140
That must have been the big thing.

810
00:39:49,260 --> 00:39:52,860
Maybe it was just to justify having spent all the money on the computer,

811
00:39:52,860 --> 00:39:55,440
and then when you're not using it, you kind of feel like,

812
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,100
oh man, I can't believe I bought that.

813
00:39:58,220 --> 00:40:00,660
But if you just put a screensaver on it,

814
00:40:00,700 --> 00:40:03,040
it would still at least be doing something in the corner of the room,

815
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:04,560
and be like, oh wow, that's cool, man.

816
00:40:04,620 --> 00:40:06,680
It's well worth the fucking $3,000.

817
00:40:07,260 --> 00:40:11,240
Cartoons create characters and create wallpaper for Windows in the same way.

818
00:40:11,300 --> 00:40:12,040
Really quite a product.

819
00:40:12,420 --> 00:40:13,580
Lemmings, one of the great...

820
00:40:13,580 --> 00:40:14,500
Quite a product.

821
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:15,280
Quite a product.

822
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:16,700
And we've got to see this.

823
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,060
It's Stuart Chaffee's favorite ever computer game.

824
00:40:20,060 --> 00:40:22,760
I know this because he admitted it on a podcast.

825
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:28,580
It's Lemmings, which was made by the company that went on to make Grand Theft Auto.

826
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,720
I think it was not Rockstar.

827
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,180
Was it Rockstar North?

828
00:40:34,340 --> 00:40:35,820
Was it a team...

829
00:40:35,820 --> 00:40:36,420
Was it Gremlin?

830
00:40:36,580 --> 00:40:37,120
Not Gremlin.

831
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:38,260
I don't know.

832
00:40:39,220 --> 00:40:39,680
Have a look.

833
00:40:40,140 --> 00:40:41,340
It's not Psygnosis.

834
00:40:41,540 --> 00:40:42,960
...games that came out for the Amiga this year.

835
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,080
It's finally out for the PC.

836
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,120
Lemmings is just one of the most unusual new games I've ever seen.

837
00:40:47,500 --> 00:40:47,840
And if you...

838
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:48,900
DMC.

839
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:49,240
DMA.

840
00:40:49,240 --> 00:40:52,420
If you don't have an Amiga, you have a PC you cannot play.

841
00:40:52,420 --> 00:40:54,660
Lemmings is just one of the most unusual...

842
00:40:54,660 --> 00:40:55,820
Who's that there?

843
00:40:55,860 --> 00:40:57,560
It doesn't say DMC underneath.

844
00:40:58,020 --> 00:40:58,580
It's not...

845
00:40:58,580 --> 00:41:00,520
That's not Psygnosis, is it?

846
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:02,180
...games I've ever seen.

847
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,380
And if you don't have an Amiga, you have a PC you...

848
00:41:05,380 --> 00:41:08,880
What's that fucking saying underneath?

849
00:41:10,240 --> 00:41:11,360
...you cannot play Lemmings.

850
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,420
One of the cleverest new pieces of software I've seen.

851
00:41:14,540 --> 00:41:14,940
Automap.

852
00:41:14,940 --> 00:41:15,040
Automap.

853
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:16,260
It's already selling very well.

854
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,580
It's basically like having three A's in your PC.

855
00:41:18,580 --> 00:41:20,340
If you're taking a trip somewhere...

856
00:41:20,340 --> 00:41:21,400
I wonder...

857
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,920
We just have a quick look there for Ant Simulator.

858
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:25,080
Just see what that...

859
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:26,780
If there's any long plays on that.

860
00:41:27,700 --> 00:41:30,100
Ant Simulator.

861
00:41:37,100 --> 00:41:37,620
1991.

862
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:44,160
Oh, SimAnt.

863
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:46,280
SimAnt game.

864
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,380
Gameplay.

865
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,000
Best Ant Colony gameplay.

866
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:55,340
So, you're an ant.

867
00:41:56,020 --> 00:41:56,920
Wow, look at this.

868
00:41:57,260 --> 00:41:58,760
This was the real...

869
00:41:58,760 --> 00:41:59,620
Some great music.

870
00:41:59,740 --> 00:42:01,280
Some great MIDI...

871
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:03,320
Audio effects here.

872
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:27,160
Wow.

873
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:43,920
So you have to fight spiders.

874
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:48,160
Check that out, man.

875
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:49,240
That's scary.

876
00:42:49,240 --> 00:43:03,880
You writhe in burning agony as the spider's deadly venom flows through your body.

877
00:43:04,020 --> 00:43:04,920
Click here to continue.

878
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:32,660
So you're an ant.

879
00:43:32,660 --> 00:43:57,120
I have no idea what's going on.

880
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:05,120
Wow.

881
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,120
It's pretty graphic.

882
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:11,120
It's pretty fucking graphic enough.

883
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:21,120
I'm going to go.

884
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:31,120
Congratulations.

885
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:41,120
The spider is being killed by the ants.

886
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:55,120
So I suppose the aim is to just fucking take control of the garden, is it?

887
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:59,120
Never heard of this game.

888
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,120
Seemed like it was big stuff back in the day.

889
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:05,120
The enemy ant has attacked you after an intense wrestling match.

890
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:13,120
The enemy ant bites your limbs up.

891
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:17,700
Enough of that.

892
00:45:17,700 --> 00:45:47,680
I want to go from A to B. It tells you what the best route is, how long it'll take, the restaurants along the way, whether it's a pretty countryside stop along the way and so on. Automap, it's more than a road atlas. I mean, it's really a trip planner. Quite an extraordinary program. Does it have the whole country? The whole country. The whole country. I mean, it's amazing. Two other little things I want to show. Everybody's into portable mice these days. This is my favorite. This is called Thumbelina. If you really do portable computing on an airplane and so on, you just hold this little thing in your hand. You move this little trackball. It's the smallest thing to carry around. You keep it in your jacket pocket. You always have it with you. You don't have it with you.

893
00:45:47,680 --> 00:46:17,660
You don't have to clip it on. It's not bulky. It's just a gorgeous little thing. The Thumbelina is from a company called Appoint. Last but not least, this is one of the cleverest little palm top computer organizer things I've ever seen. Let me turn it on for you here. The agenda. Okay, I just entered that. I didn't want to waste time here on the show. LCD, no backlit screen in those days. It was just you need a light to be able to see it. Using these. Look at that. Touch sensitive little pads for your fingers. Five keys over here. That's how you enter. This is called

894
00:46:17,660 --> 00:46:35,500
chord writing. And the problem with all these little things is the tiny keys down here. You can't really... Tiny keys down here. You can actually... chord writing. And the problem with all these little things is the tiny keys down here. You can't really... You can actually type about 45 words a minute. I mean, very quickly. And of course, you never have to move your fingers and it's very easy to learn.

895
00:46:35,660 --> 00:46:40,840
What do you... What's he even doing there? Look. He's putting the fingers on there. There's nothing happening.

896
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:47,840
It was very difficult to learn. It's quite easy to learn. You can actually download through this into your PC. It matches up with the information managers like...

897
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:52,640
Look at the clunk that comes with it. Fucking VGA enabled.

898
00:46:53,740 --> 00:46:59,840
Like Ascend and so on. Comes with 128k made by an English company called Microwriter. It's an incredible little toy.

899
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:06,120
But he never told us what that does. He just says you put your fingers there. It doesn't show you what it does.

900
00:47:06,700 --> 00:47:08,160
And I'm going to turn to you, John.

901
00:47:08,460 --> 00:47:12,560
A few good things. If you have Windows and you don't have Norton Desktop for Windows, you really need it.

902
00:47:12,620 --> 00:47:19,320
It's what Windows should be. It lets you integrate a file manager, program manager, lets you copy and drag things into trash cans, shredders, all that kind of stuff. It's really...

903
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:20,140
It's really...

904
00:47:20,140 --> 00:47:27,180
Trash can. See? And I wonder, did Norton have other things going on before they became an antivirus?

905
00:47:27,380 --> 00:47:29,560
Because I don't know what that is. It's what Windows should be.

906
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:38,480
You don't have Norton Desktop for Windows. You really need it. It's what Windows should be. It lets you integrate a file manager, program manager, lets you copy and drag things into trash cans, shredders, all that kind of stuff.

907
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:39,420
It's really, really neat.

908
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:45,180
If you don't want to go to Windows, you want to stay with DOS, the way you work eliminates a lot of the problems with DOS.

909
00:47:45,220 --> 00:47:45,980
DOS really should have been.

910
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:48,000
Exactly.

911
00:47:48,580 --> 00:47:49,360
Longer file names?

912
00:47:49,620 --> 00:47:54,360
Longer file names, title bars, menu bars, more descriptive file names, a lot of things that DOS really should have been.

913
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:55,640
All right, John, I want to get to see this neat thing.

914
00:47:55,640 --> 00:48:06,100
But my favorite is the Photo Man from Logitech. This is a camera, believe it or not. It's a full digital camera. It holds a roll of 32 digital film clips in here.

915
00:48:07,420 --> 00:48:37,400
Ergonomically wonderful your thumb goes here. It's really really easy to do this and press the button. Wow, it's so discreet. It's a full digital camera. It holds a roll as the photo man from Logitech. It's a photo man. This is a camera. Believe it or not. It's a full digital camera. It holds a roll of 32 digital film clips in here. It's got film in it. Ergonomically wonderful. Your thumb goes here. It's really really easy to do this and press the button and stuff like that. When you have your pictures all 32 or any portion of it, you simply put it into this base stand. This base stand now.

916
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:44,340
Down. Need to write that into the chat there. Base stand all in one word. Base stand.

917
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:52,020
Loads the entire roll of film. There's a roll of film essentially. Roll of black and white film.

918
00:48:52,880 --> 00:49:02,380
Photo man. She. We've done this and you have the whole roll basically that I shot. And what you do is you save the ones you want to save and then clear it out and start taking more pictures. Now it's so happy.

919
00:49:02,380 --> 00:49:12,880
Look at this. Look. Real low. Low fucking fi Schindler. And Stu. Bit of Stu Bance with Pete. Pete Schindler. Oscar Schindler.

920
00:49:15,180 --> 00:49:21,180
Paul Schindler. Stu showing off some products. Bit of backstage Bance.

921
00:49:23,180 --> 00:49:36,480
Two kilobytes. Two kilobytes. Imaging. Happens. That I saved what I thought was one of the good pictures. A good picture because it has Stuart.

922
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:48,320
And three computers. But the point is you can do things such as zooming in. Zooming out. I love that. Zooming in closer and things of that nature. I love that. Can you paste these into.

923
00:49:48,380 --> 00:49:52,600
And to other folks. You can do anything you want with it. Thank you very very much. Happy Christmas.

924
00:49:53,460 --> 00:49:59,180
Thank you very much. You can first of all modify them in the Photo Touch software that comes with it. Such as. Just to give you an example.

925
00:49:59,860 --> 00:50:06,360
This is the Logitech Photo Touch software which is bundled with the Photo Man. See.

926
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:12,240
You put your Photo Man in the base stand. See. And you can download all your images.

927
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,180
And put the ones you don't want in a trash can. Etc.

928
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,240
For example I'm going to do something called Equalize.

929
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,080
Well we've already done that. Yeah. Yeah. We cleaned it up.

930
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,300
But you can see things like you can darken. You can lighten. Wow.

931
00:50:24,420 --> 00:50:27,560
You can rotate. You can transform. You can bring it into any word processor.

932
00:50:27,980 --> 00:50:30,820
Just put it in the middle of your letter. Your documentation. Whatever.

933
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,420
We finally have a digital camera. And it weighs nothing over.

934
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,180
What's this? They haven't shown it yet. Mike Ditka.

935
00:50:38,380 --> 00:50:41,440
Very intrigued. It's been sitting on the top of the pile of crap.

936
00:50:42,940 --> 00:50:46,200
And look at the size of the box for the Logitech Photo Man.

937
00:50:47,260 --> 00:50:50,940
They could have just put the little Photo Man console there.

938
00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,340
They didn't need to have a look at the size of that thing.

939
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:54,980
It's like it's bigger than a shoe box.

940
00:50:56,500 --> 00:50:59,860
What's it cost? The cost on this is $7.99 for the whole thing.

941
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:01,160
The software, the hardware, the connector.

942
00:51:02,380 --> 00:51:05,320
Fucking Alillia Grand. For that.

943
00:51:06,580 --> 00:51:11,460
Looks like a fucking oversized kind of baby monitor sort of thing.

944
00:51:12,580 --> 00:51:17,620
Terrible stuff. Terrible stuff altogether for $7.95.

945
00:51:18,180 --> 00:51:21,680
For those images. 91 like.

946
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:22,440
Here's everything.

947
00:51:22,700 --> 00:51:23,040
I was a lot.

948
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,640
Those digital cameras weren't really that good then maybe.

949
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:27,920
It was.

950
00:51:28,100 --> 00:51:29,480
That was a lot of fun you guys.

951
00:51:29,900 --> 00:51:31,280
That is our computer consumers.

952
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:33,040
A lot of fun you guys.

953
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:33,320
That was.

954
00:51:34,020 --> 00:51:35,160
99 for the whole thing.

955
00:51:35,220 --> 00:51:36,920
The software, the hardware, the connectors, everything.

956
00:51:37,220 --> 00:51:38,100
And it runs under windows.

957
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:38,760
That was.

958
00:51:39,020 --> 00:51:39,500
Paul.

959
00:51:39,900 --> 00:51:40,360
That was a lot.

960
00:51:41,020 --> 00:51:42,860
What did Paul make a cheeky joke?

961
00:51:42,940 --> 00:51:44,220
It runs on your windows.

962
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:46,900
Or was it a DAS based thing?

963
00:51:47,700 --> 00:51:48,320
What's going on?

964
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:49,280
What's the joke there?

965
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:50,160
And Stu went.

966
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:50,660
Paul.

967
00:51:51,180 --> 00:51:51,780
As if to say.

968
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:52,920
Pause.

969
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:53,640
Don't be cheeky.

970
00:51:53,780 --> 00:51:55,480
The hardware, the connectors, everything.

971
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:56,660
And it runs under windows.

972
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:57,320
That was.

973
00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:58,100
Paul.

974
00:51:58,440 --> 00:51:59,820
That was a lot of fun you guys.

975
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,740
That is our computer consumers buying guide.

976
00:52:02,860 --> 00:52:05,440
Stay tuned now for this week's computer news on random access.

977
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:23,940
In the random access file this week, Apple has unveiled its Newton personal digital assistant.

978
00:52:24,460 --> 00:52:28,800
Apple chief John Scully demoed a prototype of Newton at the Consumer Electronics Show in Chicago.

979
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:33,500
The unit is about seven and a half by three and a half inches and weighs less than a pound.

980
00:52:33,500 --> 00:52:37,820
It features a three by six inch screen and has no keyboard, only pen input.

981
00:52:38,020 --> 00:52:44,240
It uses a 32 bit risk processor, which means Newton has more processing power than a Mac 2FX.

982
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:45,560
Newton also uses.

983
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:50,640
What was the Simpsons joke about the Newton where it's like must kill Bart or something?

984
00:52:55,500 --> 00:52:55,980
Newton.

985
00:52:58,740 --> 00:53:00,280
Eat up Martha.

986
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:04,280
So I've come up with these academic alerts.

987
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:08,260
You will receive one as soon as your grades start to slip in any subject.

988
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,980
This way your parents won't have to wait until report card time to punish you.

989
00:53:12,220 --> 00:53:12,840
How innovative.

990
00:53:13,180 --> 00:53:13,900
I like it.

991
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:15,040
Hey, Duff.

992
00:53:15,140 --> 00:53:16,420
Take a memo on your Newton.

993
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:17,840
Beat up Martin.

994
00:53:22,420 --> 00:53:27,020
So I've come up with these academic alerts.

995
00:53:27,020 --> 00:53:30,660
This is the way it was meant to work.

996
00:53:30,660 --> 00:53:35,400
It features a three by six inch screen and has no keyboard, only pen input.

997
00:53:35,780 --> 00:53:41,620
It uses a 32 bit risk processor, which means Newton has more processing power than a Mac 2FX.

998
00:53:42,340 --> 00:53:45,160
Newton also uses a new operating system called Newt OS.

999
00:53:45,900 --> 00:53:50,380
Apple says Newton will come out sometime in 1993 and will be priced under $1,000.

1000
00:53:51,380 --> 00:53:52,620
And not to be out...

1001
00:53:52,620 --> 00:53:54,060
Newt Gringrich.

1002
00:53:54,860 --> 00:53:55,380
Tech wizard.

1003
00:53:55,500 --> 00:53:56,200
Thank you very much.

1004
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:56,860
Did you find that?

1005
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:57,760
Don't be cheeky.

1006
00:53:57,840 --> 00:53:58,320
No, I didn't.

1007
00:53:58,380 --> 00:53:59,500
I didn't find it yet.

1008
00:54:01,500 --> 00:54:02,460
Thanks for the tip.

1009
00:54:02,500 --> 00:54:07,580
The Apple Sharp relationship on Newton, Tandy has announced a strategic partnership with Casio

1010
00:54:07,580 --> 00:54:10,240
to develop its own personal information device.

1011
00:54:10,620 --> 00:54:14,820
The Tandy Casio unit will use a new operating system from GeoWorks.

1012
00:54:15,340 --> 00:54:20,300
Tandy has also announced two new 486 notebooks, both weighing under six pounds.

1013
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:25,340
TI is offering three new 486 notebooks with prices beginning at $31.99.

1014
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:30,780
And Xeos has announced a new color notebook, 25 megahertz 386 with...

1015
00:54:30,780 --> 00:54:31,420
Twisted.

1016
00:54:31,540 --> 00:54:31,900
Twisted.

1017
00:54:31,900 --> 00:54:32,080
Twisted.

1018
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,540
Thank you very much, Twisted.

1019
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:35,240
Twisted.

1020
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:39,660
Do you know what?

1021
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:42,200
I'd love to see some Netcafe Christmas...

1022
00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:43,140
Passive Matrix...

1023
00:54:43,140 --> 00:54:44,180
... additions, but I don't...

1024
00:54:44,180 --> 00:54:45,500
I'm not sure if there are any.

1025
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:46,540
It's hard to find them.

1026
00:54:46,700 --> 00:54:49,620
They're not as well cataloged as the Computer Chronicles.

1027
00:54:49,620 --> 00:54:52,440
... VGA display for $32.95.

1028
00:54:53,420 --> 00:54:57,360
Microsoft has started shipping Excel 4.0 for the Macintosh.

1029
00:54:57,700 --> 00:54:59,260
Upgrade price is $99.

1030
00:54:59,980 --> 00:55:07,360
Best-selling Mac software for the week includes the Norton Utilities in the number one spot with the new Excel already in the top three.

1031
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,380
Not much change in the rest of this week's top ten.

1032
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,320
No, this is not a UFO.

1033
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,400
It's the newest, tiniest transistor from IBM.

1034
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,360
Magnified about 200,000 times.

1035
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:23,840
Big Blue says the new transistor is 175,000th the width of a human hair.

1036
00:55:23,900 --> 00:55:28,280
IBM plans to build a new memory chip containing 4 billion of these transistors.

1037
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:29,660
Memory chip.

1038
00:55:29,660 --> 00:55:32,780
That will mean a memory chip with a 4 gigabyte capacity.

1039
00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:34,700
Memory chip, your real name, memory?

1040
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:35,660
Have you seen this ad?

1041
00:55:35,660 --> 00:55:35,900
No, it's not.

1042
00:55:36,100 --> 00:55:42,280
Yes, Sitka is giving away a two-node version of its 10-net peer-to-peer network software for Windows and DOS.

1043
00:55:42,720 --> 00:55:47,080
To get the free network software, you have to prove ownership of two network interface cards.

1044
00:55:47,660 --> 00:55:52,660
Sitka is gambling that you'll like 10-net so much, you'll come back to buy its network expander packs.

1045
00:55:52,660 --> 00:55:56,500
The 10-net starter pack usually retails for $199.

1046
00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:00,400
The free giveaway offer is good until September 30th.

1047
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,520
That's it for this week's Computer Chronicles.

1048
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:03,840
I'm Janelle Stelzen.

1049
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,100
Janelle Stelzen's after you.

1050
00:56:06,240 --> 00:56:07,500
She's got great hair.

1051
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,240
A little exhalation there at the end of Janelle's piece.

1052
00:56:12,860 --> 00:56:14,740
That's it for this week's Computer Chronicles.

1053
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:16,100
I'm Janelle Stelzen.

1054
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:21,540
Computer Chronicles has been made possible in part by Cardinal Technologies.

1055
00:56:21,540 --> 00:56:22,340
Thank you very much.

1056
00:56:22,340 --> 00:56:25,240
Thank you very much for Vistam Myaggy.

1057
00:56:25,540 --> 00:56:29,320
Any chance of Elden Run, Speed Run, Elden Ring, Speed Run.

1058
00:56:30,180 --> 00:56:32,180
I've the game installed.

1059
00:56:33,940 --> 00:56:36,860
I might give it a go actually, but I don't think I'll get far on it.

1060
00:56:36,860 --> 00:56:37,380
It's tough.

1061
00:56:38,460 --> 00:56:42,220
You have to repeatedly try and kill bosses.

1062
00:56:42,620 --> 00:56:44,000
It could take hours to do that.

1063
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,960
And then there's probably like 100,000 bosses in it.

1064
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:52,000
It's probably the whole point of the game, but I'm not sure if I enjoy that.

1065
00:56:52,220 --> 00:56:55,500
Constantly failing miserably on the stream is hard to take.

1066
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:57,120
I feel like...

1067
00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:00,880
I feel shit doing it.

1068
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,060
Do you know, it's like...

1069
00:57:02,060 --> 00:57:03,660
I don't know.

1070
00:57:04,780 --> 00:57:10,040
Maybe people wouldn't mind seeing me fail miserably at the game.

1071
00:57:10,240 --> 00:57:13,040
I'm not sure.

1072
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:13,080
I'm not sure.

1073
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:21,160
Hitman works though.

1074
00:57:21,300 --> 00:57:23,320
I just tried it earlier on and it works.

1075
00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:27,020
So maybe I just had to restart the console, which...

1076
00:57:27,020 --> 00:57:27,420
I don't know.

1077
00:57:28,460 --> 00:57:29,940
Didn't have to try anything different.

1078
00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:37,080
Look at this lovely collage at the end here of the beautiful fucking products we've seen during the show.

1079
00:57:37,220 --> 00:57:38,000
And it's...

1080
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,100
I love the crossfades into badge.

1081
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:41,520
Like memories that have passed.

1082
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:42,740
Bullock Tate.

1083
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:44,120
Thank you very much for your tip.

1084
00:57:44,220 --> 00:57:45,000
Merry Christmas to you.

1085
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,500
And Peter Nichols is involved.

1086
00:57:47,620 --> 00:57:48,460
Monarcher Jane.

1087
00:57:53,460 --> 00:57:54,820
Linda Giannichi.

1088
00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:57,400
Dan Lemons.

1089
00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:58,660
Carol Eikenberry.

1090
00:57:59,260 --> 00:58:01,160
Some fucking great names here.

1091
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:02,600
As a parody.

1092
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:04,200
He's been there all...

1093
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:05,260
Since the day dot.

1094
00:58:06,020 --> 00:58:06,920
Rene Renard.

1095
00:58:10,420 --> 00:58:11,680
That was the...

1096
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:12,440
What was that called?

1097
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:13,560
The yoke that he had.

1098
00:58:14,060 --> 00:58:15,340
Where you put your fingers in it.

1099
00:58:16,340 --> 00:58:17,280
And it was rubbish.

1100
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:17,660
That one.

1101
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:19,880
The agenda.

1102
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:23,960
The fucking agenda handheld.

1103
00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:24,500
Is it?

1104
00:58:25,620 --> 00:58:26,100
Agenda.

1105
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:27,800
Agenda.

1106
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:27,900
Agenda.

1107
00:58:28,620 --> 00:58:29,140
Hand.

1108
00:58:29,860 --> 00:58:30,320
Held.

1109
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:31,540
Console.

1110
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:37,240
Agenda pocket computer.

1111
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:49,840
No one has it.

1112
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:50,020
Look.

1113
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:50,560
No one even...

1114
00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:53,880
They must be very rare.

1115
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:58,160
See what he calls it.

1116
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,680
Let's see if he has a specific name for it.

1117
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:06,060
This is one of the cleverest little palm top computer organizer things ever.

1118
00:59:06,660 --> 00:59:08,080
Palm top computer.

1119
00:59:08,900 --> 00:59:09,460
Agenda.

1120
00:59:09,900 --> 00:59:10,840
Palm top.

1121
00:59:16,420 --> 00:59:17,220
Here we go.

1122
00:59:17,420 --> 00:59:17,940
Has to be it.

1123
00:59:23,100 --> 00:59:23,540
No.

1124
00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:27,020
Is Chip your real name, Chip?

1125
00:59:27,860 --> 00:59:29,460
What was that thing there?

1126
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,620
The $70 handheld computer pocket chip review.

1127
00:59:33,180 --> 00:59:33,560
Hey everyone.

1128
00:59:33,660 --> 00:59:34,000
It's Colin.

1129
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:34,560
How's it going?

1130
00:59:35,140 --> 00:59:35,420
Small.

1131
00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,700
It snaps into.

1132
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:39,920
The chip computer.

1133
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:40,860
Under GPU.

1134
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:42,540
Built in.

1135
00:59:42,900 --> 00:59:46,000
That make the handheld a bit uncomfortable to hold.

1136
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:49,900
To prevent creating a short.

1137
00:59:50,940 --> 00:59:53,140
You can launch a GUI based file explorer.

1138
00:59:53,380 --> 00:59:54,940
Or jump into a text editor.

1139
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:56,860
Or command line terminal session.

1140
00:59:57,260 --> 00:59:57,520
Alright.

1141
00:59:57,520 --> 00:59:57,620
Alright.

1142
00:59:58,620 --> 00:59:59,020
Alright.

1143
00:59:59,020 --> 00:59:59,240
Alright.

1144
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,240
Plus IBM Compatite.

1145
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:04,240
Compatite chip. Compatite.

1146
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,240
Please spend...

1147
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:30,460
Beautiful, real beautiful stuff.

1148
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:33,820
Probably the greatest show in the world.

1149
01:00:33,820 --> 01:00:37,400
Computer stuff to get some presents for some hacker friends of mine.

1150
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:41,320
Trouble is, there's so many interesting things here, I'm really not sure what to buy.

1151
01:00:41,380 --> 01:00:42,360
You having the same problem?

1152
01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:46,680
If so, then this is your day, because we're going to bring together our group of resident

1153
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:51,640
Computer Chronicles experts to find out what their picks are for the best high-tech toys

1154
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:57,340
of the year, as we bring you our annual Consumer's Buying Guide show on this edition of the Computer

1155
01:00:57,340 --> 01:00:57,860
Chronicles.

1156
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:00,920
I think we've seen this one before.

1157
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:04,820
I seem to remember him pressing the button here on this.

1158
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:10,660
I'm shopping on this kiosk here, looking for computer stuff to get some presents for some

1159
01:01:10,660 --> 01:01:11,780
hacker friends of mine.

1160
01:01:12,020 --> 01:01:13,740
Some hacker friends of mine?

1161
01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:15,960
Kristen Reed, thank you very much.

1162
01:01:16,580 --> 01:01:19,980
Trouble is, there's so many interesting things here, I'm really not sure what to buy.

1163
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:21,040
You having the same problem?

1164
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:23,300
I'm not sure if we've seen this.

1165
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,200
That image there.

1166
01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:30,360
Oh, we have seen this.

1167
01:01:30,620 --> 01:01:33,280
This is the one where he gets the computer out the pocket.

1168
01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:35,340
Schindler at the end.

1169
01:01:35,700 --> 01:01:36,120
There we go.

1170
01:01:36,500 --> 01:01:37,820
It's a funny little moment here.

1171
01:01:37,820 --> 01:01:39,600
Just plugs right into your parallel port.

1172
01:01:39,700 --> 01:01:41,300
Takes me about 30 seconds to install it.

1173
01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:42,060
There you go.

1174
01:01:42,220 --> 01:01:42,760
Take it home.

1175
01:01:43,020 --> 01:01:43,400
All right.

1176
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,340
I will be about 30 seconds to install it.

1177
01:01:50,580 --> 01:01:51,120
There you go.

1178
01:01:51,120 --> 01:02:21,100
There you go.

1179
01:02:21,100 --> 01:02:30,140
I don't know why that bit is funny to me where he puts that in the thing, but I like it.

1180
01:02:30,260 --> 01:02:30,760
There you go.

1181
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:31,440
Take it home.

1182
01:02:31,700 --> 01:02:32,080
All right.

1183
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:37,100
Paul and I will be joined today by Tim Bahar and Gina Smith for a look at the neatest new

1184
01:02:37,100 --> 01:02:38,240
computer goodies on the market.

1185
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:42,380
We'll look mainly at software and peripherals for IBM PC compatibles in the...

1186
01:02:42,380 --> 01:02:43,680
Yeah, we've seen that.

1187
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:46,840
Holiday buying guide 95.

1188
01:02:47,180 --> 01:02:48,200
I don't know if we've seen this.

1189
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:58,380
I don't think we've seen this one.

1190
01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:02,520
I think we have, though.

1191
01:03:02,660 --> 01:03:03,840
I think we've seen this lady's hair.

1192
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,100
I think we were looking at this lady's hair last week.

1193
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:07,300
I remember...

1194
01:03:07,300 --> 01:03:09,720
I distinctly remember zooming into this bit here.

1195
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:12,300
You could put a bit of...

1196
01:03:12,300 --> 01:03:16,020
A couple of googly eyes on the top of that and it'd look like something out the Muppets or

1197
01:03:16,020 --> 01:03:16,360
something.

1198
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:28,860
Samantha, thank you very much for the tip there. It's my birthday today. Happy birthday.

1199
01:03:28,860 --> 01:03:34,200
Happy birthday. And to celebrate that fact, we're going to put a pair of googly eyes on

1200
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:41,260
the top of this lady's hair just to see what that looks like.

1201
01:03:41,260 --> 01:04:06,780
Great to have a transparent GIF. I don't think they exist though. Save image. Yeah. There.

1202
01:04:06,780 --> 01:04:18,780
GIF looks like something out the Muppets or a fucking, whatchamacallit, something out of, I don't know, what's that out of? It's definitely out of something.

1203
01:04:18,780 --> 01:04:34,780
With you and what are you going to show us Chris? Very cool product. Cousteau's world from... Okay, so maybe we could zoom out of that, put her full screen and then we can fuck around with the googly eyes in real time. She's presenting the stuff.

1204
01:04:34,780 --> 01:04:44,780
Interactive and Jean-Michel Cousteau's production, the elder son of Jacques Cousteau. Right. First in the series, this one having to deal with the coral reef cities under the sea.

1205
01:04:44,780 --> 01:04:48,780
Try the Cookie Monster. In it we have a choice of...

1206
01:04:48,780 --> 01:05:02,780
A horrible game that Jack Cousteau's son made or brought out to milk the Cousteau name.

1207
01:05:02,780 --> 01:05:12,780
We need some more. The badge is there with this fucking badger. Badger blade around the neck. This lady, here we go. Great stuff.

1208
01:05:12,780 --> 01:05:14,780
Here's the car guide.

1209
01:05:14,780 --> 01:05:16,780
...to play with and Chris, what else do you want to tell us about?

1210
01:05:16,780 --> 01:05:24,780
The Popular Mechanics Car Guide for 1996. Over 7,500 different models for anybody interested.

1211
01:05:24,780 --> 01:05:28,780
Is that to fix cars or buy cars? It's to buy, to lease. How to buy a car.

1212
01:05:28,780 --> 01:05:32,780
Exactly. Tips on how to deal with your dealer, how to check over a used car yourself.

1213
01:05:32,780 --> 01:05:38,780
Is it multimedia? Is there video stuff in there? Video stuff. You can customize your car if you want to.

1214
01:05:38,780 --> 01:05:43,380
It might even be worth going in there for a bit and seeing.

1215
01:05:43,380 --> 01:05:52,220
Check out different... tips on how to deal with your dealer, how to check over a used car yourself.

1216
01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:54,320
Is it multimedia? Is there video stuff in there?

1217
01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:58,240
Video stuff. You can customize your car if you want to and check out different colors.

1218
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:02,420
About 30 bucks in the stores now. Terrific little tool.

1219
01:06:04,020 --> 01:06:07,480
Terrific little tool. Fucking TLT.

1220
01:06:08,660 --> 01:06:09,820
Tender loving tool.

1221
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:11,280
I'm shopping for a car and I'm using it right now.

1222
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:12,480
All right, I'll have to get a copy of that. Me too.

1223
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:15,320
All right, Zip Drive. Suzanne, tell us about it.

1224
01:06:16,220 --> 01:06:17,100
Zip Drive.

1225
01:06:17,460 --> 01:06:19,400
That's right. If you have a friend who has a...

1226
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:23,300
We're watching this last week. We're watching this less than a week ago.

1227
01:06:25,300 --> 01:06:26,340
Just sitting on their desk.

1228
01:06:26,340 --> 01:06:26,720
Like me.

1229
01:06:29,300 --> 01:06:30,520
Right there.

1230
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:37,940
Oh, that's heavy, isn't it? That's a heavy buzz there.

1231
01:06:38,460 --> 01:06:39,300
Other bankers...

1232
01:06:39,300 --> 01:06:43,060
It's a young... It's 1985 Schindler.

1233
01:06:43,060 --> 01:06:45,060
Japanese robots.

1234
01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:51,420
Or the computer.

1235
01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:54,520
Every aspect of the game environment is under your control.

1236
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:55,700
Let's have a look.

1237
01:06:56,240 --> 01:06:58,380
First of all, you establish the regulatory environment.

1238
01:06:58,700 --> 01:07:00,240
Maximum interest rates...

1239
01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,080
Might be worth looking into Paul Schindler's...

1240
01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:06,520
History on the game shows there.

1241
01:07:07,380 --> 01:07:08,000
Paul...

1242
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:09,620
Schindler.

1243
01:07:11,620 --> 01:07:12,540
What's his website?

1244
01:07:12,660 --> 01:07:14,080
Is it paulschindler.com or...

1245
01:07:16,900 --> 01:07:18,400
Paul Schindler.com?

1246
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:22,200
It's my computer journalist.

1247
01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:26,780
Schindler.org?

1248
01:07:27,620 --> 01:07:28,140
Yeah.

1249
01:07:29,740 --> 01:07:30,640
Great stuff.

1250
01:07:31,340 --> 01:07:32,160
Revision history.

1251
01:07:34,660 --> 01:07:36,380
Cut of my Chronicle reviews.

1252
01:07:38,420 --> 01:07:40,780
I was just checking my armband here.

1253
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:43,420
You know, we were all looking forward to the reading of the will...

1254
01:07:43,420 --> 01:07:44,960
Until we found out there wasn't one.

1255
01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:47,620
Gosh, it's never done that before.

1256
01:07:49,220 --> 01:07:51,220
This really takes me back to my youth.

1257
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,780
Get a load of this sexy continental packaging.

1258
01:07:54,820 --> 01:07:57,660
As football once again takes over America's living rooms...

1259
01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:02,040
Every armchair quarterback in the country yearns to be out on the gridiron...

1260
01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:03,920
Directing a National Football League team.

1261
01:08:04,860 --> 01:08:07,200
I don't know about you, but I feel pretty silly...

1262
01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:09,820
Having to keep one of these around in our electronic age.

1263
01:08:10,180 --> 01:08:12,200
Why should I need a dictionary to help me spell?

1264
01:08:12,620 --> 01:08:13,540
The People's Card.

1265
01:08:14,020 --> 01:08:14,800
Simple to use.

1266
01:08:15,020 --> 01:08:18,420
I have a lot of trouble with my mailing lists...

1267
01:08:18,420 --> 01:08:19,500
Just like everyone else.

1268
01:08:24,500 --> 01:08:25,500
Oh, I was...

1269
01:08:25,500 --> 01:08:42,140
What was the suggested video there at the end?

1270
01:08:42,940 --> 01:08:45,900
That's a 1987 edition of the Computer Chronicles.

1271
01:08:46,580 --> 01:08:47,560
Computer games.

1272
01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:50,580
Right, okay, we've got that.

1273
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,860
There is something better, though.

1274
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:54,840
There has to be.

1275
01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:57,640
We've heard that there's videos about him.

1276
01:08:59,220 --> 01:09:00,200
On Wheel of Fortune.

1277
01:09:00,620 --> 01:09:01,060
Jeopardy.

1278
01:09:02,340 --> 01:09:03,180
Jet wheel.

1279
01:09:05,060 --> 01:09:06,560
Merv Griffin's cross...

1280
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:08,160
Crosswords.

1281
01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:10,380
California AIDS ride.

1282
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:11,620
Revision history.

1283
01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:14,080
Oh, Schindler.

1284
01:09:14,260 --> 01:09:16,000
Somebody sent me the video the other day,

1285
01:09:16,060 --> 01:09:18,040
but I just don't have the fucking link handy now.

1286
01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:19,680
Uh...

1287
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:44,900
Content revised and removed from page.

1288
01:09:44,900 --> 01:09:47,280
New versions of my column.

1289
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:48,160
New versions of my column.

1290
01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:49,200
Oh, version of my column.

1291
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:49,880
Home.

1292
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:51,280
PC.

1293
01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:52,340
Yeah, I got current.

1294
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:53,340
Larry King.

1295
01:09:53,420 --> 01:09:54,320
Letters from Europe.

1296
01:09:56,660 --> 01:09:57,600
Great Britain.

1297
01:09:58,700 --> 01:09:59,460
Groundhog Day.

1298
01:09:59,540 --> 01:10:00,280
Best film ever.

1299
01:10:02,540 --> 01:10:08,780
Can't fucking seem to find anything here about any video content of him on Wheel of Fortune.

1300
01:10:08,780 --> 01:10:09,800
That would be nice.

1301
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:12,520
Be a real collector's edition.

1302
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:17,760
I've seen that one.

1303
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:17,760
I've seen that one.

1304
01:10:28,340 --> 01:10:31,680
Just a more up-to-date computer buyer's guide.

1305
01:10:31,780 --> 01:10:34,340
Just 10 years into the future from 1991.

1306
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,280
Just going straight into 2000.

1307
01:10:38,260 --> 01:10:40,100
Just to see something new there.

1308
01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:41,400
Hopefully we haven't seen this, though.

1309
01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:55,780
Buying guide?

1310
01:10:58,780 --> 01:11:03,820
Whoa, how crap.

1311
01:11:04,440 --> 01:11:08,540
It's like a rubbish plastic silver flip phone.

1312
01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:10,420
Not even a phone, is it?

1313
01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:13,800
It's got an MP3 headset capability.

1314
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:15,640
Handheld devices.

1315
01:11:16,740 --> 01:11:18,000
Handheld devices.

1316
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:22,780
You'll see what's new in cell phone technology and other handheld devices.

1317
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:27,200
If you haven't gotten one yet, we'll show you what the new PlayStation 2 can do.

1318
01:11:27,740 --> 01:11:30,660
PS2 Stu. Fucking nice.

1319
01:11:33,220 --> 01:11:36,900
Eibo. I remember them. They were like fucking two grand by Sony.

1320
01:11:42,900 --> 01:11:45,460
And hell robot dog by Sony.

1321
01:11:45,460 --> 01:11:47,860
Coming up next on the Computer Chronicles.

1322
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:52,560
The Computer Chronicles is brought to you by Ron Diamond.

1323
01:11:52,900 --> 01:11:55,480
Ron Diamond sponsoring. This is going to be a good show.

1324
01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:58,040
There's a lovely bit of pace to the later series you see.

1325
01:11:58,440 --> 01:12:02,280
There's a nice kind of cozy atmosphere from the 80s and the early 90s.

1326
01:12:02,340 --> 01:12:04,480
But this is where Stu really got ruthless.

1327
01:12:05,420 --> 01:12:07,960
He just. Everything was just boom boom.

1328
01:12:08,300 --> 01:12:10,000
Okay what else next next next.

1329
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:12,800
We're going to see some PS2 action as well.

1330
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,340
Just want to fix up a coffee there.

1331
01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:16,700
It'll be two seconds.

1332
01:12:16,820 --> 01:12:21,080
But while I'm doing that I'll leave you with the Kiki Stockhammer videotape.

1333
01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:23,420
FX Grab 3 with Kiki effects.

1334
01:12:23,620 --> 01:12:24,480
Should be pretty good.

1335
01:12:24,580 --> 01:12:25,840
I mean I think we've seen it before.

1336
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:27,300
It's. It's.

1337
01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:28,540
It's a heavy buzz.

1338
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:30,240
It's a heavy buzz.

1339
01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:30,800
It's weird.

1340
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:31,440
It's bizarre.

1341
01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:37,600
Stu.

1342
01:12:37,740 --> 01:12:39,480
Stu isn't jaded by this point.

1343
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:39,800
Ground.

1344
01:12:40,300 --> 01:12:41,140
He's loving it.

1345
01:12:41,140 --> 01:12:43,960
But actually he does say in the podcast that he had to stop.

1346
01:12:44,440 --> 01:12:45,640
They just had to stop doing it.

1347
01:12:45,940 --> 01:12:47,200
They fell out of love with the industry.

1348
01:12:47,500 --> 01:12:48,540
Maybe you're right.

1349
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:49,300
Stu is jaded.

1350
01:12:49,440 --> 01:12:49,620
But he.

1351
01:12:50,180 --> 01:12:52,900
Maybe that's part of the charm of the bits as well.

1352
01:12:52,980 --> 01:12:55,040
That you can tell that he's fucking sick of it maybe.

1353
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:56,700
But he's such a pro.

1354
01:12:57,340 --> 01:13:03,080
That he's really going through the motions in a way in which you wouldn't really know who he was if you were a first time viewer.

1355
01:13:03,440 --> 01:13:05,060
But us seasoned viewers.

1356
01:13:05,700 --> 01:13:06,680
We really know the crack.

1357
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:36,660
Try this with a skirt. Grab it further back so that it flaps up more. Now that last one you did with the high stepping, what is it? The skirt is kind of bunching up a bit. I'm not sure quite what you do about that. Hold it more like this. Try that.

1358
01:13:36,660 --> 01:13:49,660
Yeah, that's like the Moulin Rouge. Do that with the high stepping bit. It's like the...

1359
01:13:49,660 --> 01:13:53,660
I can't let this.

1360
01:13:56,660 --> 01:13:57,660
Okay.

1361
01:14:05,660 --> 01:14:23,660
Let's maybe try just one just kind of straight walk. Remember that one walk that you did that was accidental? I like the movement of it. It was starting closer to the camera. You know, it's like starting up like right where your shoes are and then going towards the light stand over there.

1362
01:14:24,660 --> 01:14:31,660
Okay. Try it the other way. Now come back this way and keep your head up a little bit more as you walk.

1363
01:14:35,660 --> 01:14:49,660
Walk from there back this way. Okay. Well... Blank.

1364
01:14:53,660 --> 01:14:56,660
Oh, that's neat. Isn't that great?

1365
01:14:56,660 --> 01:14:57,660
Okay.

1366
01:15:02,660 --> 01:15:03,660
Okay, now...

1367
01:15:08,660 --> 01:15:10,660
Get a little of your butt in there.

1368
01:15:11,660 --> 01:15:13,660
Okay. Do those things again.

1369
01:15:14,660 --> 01:15:16,660
That one where you are kind of like... There you go.

1370
01:15:17,660 --> 01:15:20,660
Now I need it to fill more of the screen. So I'm going to zoom...

1371
01:15:21,660 --> 01:15:23,660
Down just a little bit more like that.

1372
01:15:24,660 --> 01:15:25,660
Okay, try that again.

1373
01:15:26,660 --> 01:15:28,660
DJ VD. That's it for Blank U tonight. I will see you tomorrow.

1374
01:15:29,660 --> 01:15:29,660
Okay.

1375
01:15:29,660 --> 01:15:32,660
And early. 8 PM. I'm out of here. Bring me up, Scotty.

1376
01:15:37,660 --> 01:15:43,660
Okay. Now try and keep your legs more straight during the 45 degree where it's touching the upper left hand corner of the screen.

1377
01:15:44,660 --> 01:15:47,660
I need to have at least one of your legs past the upper left.

1378
01:15:48,660 --> 01:15:52,660
So one leg could be straight and the other one curved.

1379
01:15:57,660 --> 01:15:58,660
Yeah, that's it.

1380
01:15:59,660 --> 01:16:03,660
And then maybe have one of them come further back.

1381
01:16:04,660 --> 01:16:05,660
In other words...

1382
01:16:07,660 --> 01:16:08,660
Eclipse will have hotel room giveaways every Saturday night.

1383
01:16:09,660 --> 01:16:10,660
Yeah.

1384
01:16:11,660 --> 01:16:12,660
Eclipse.

1385
01:16:12,660 --> 01:16:13,660
That's great.

1386
01:16:14,660 --> 01:16:15,660
Okay, that's great.

1387
01:16:16,660 --> 01:16:17,660
Try doing that again a little slower.

1388
01:16:18,660 --> 01:16:21,660
Oh, this is like really good on my stomach muscles.

1389
01:16:22,660 --> 01:16:22,660
This is like...

1390
01:16:23,660 --> 01:16:24,660
Yeah.

1391
01:16:25,660 --> 01:16:28,660
You've always had a wish, a big wish, dream really.

1392
01:16:29,660 --> 01:16:30,660
Work with music, record it, makes it do so all right.

1393
01:16:31,660 --> 01:16:33,660
Okay, try that but that one leg that's coming back further.

1394
01:16:33,660 --> 01:16:36,660
Try and bring it back just a little bit further and a little higher.

1395
01:16:37,660 --> 01:16:39,660
It's a crazy scene to walk into there.

1396
01:16:40,660 --> 01:16:40,660
It's a crazy scene.

1397
01:16:41,660 --> 01:16:42,660
Okay.

1398
01:16:43,660 --> 01:16:45,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1399
01:16:46,660 --> 01:16:47,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1400
01:16:47,660 --> 01:16:47,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1401
01:16:47,660 --> 01:16:48,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1402
01:16:48,660 --> 01:16:49,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1403
01:16:49,660 --> 01:16:50,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1404
01:16:50,660 --> 01:16:51,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1405
01:16:51,660 --> 01:16:52,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1406
01:16:52,660 --> 01:16:53,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1407
01:16:53,660 --> 01:16:54,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1408
01:16:54,660 --> 01:16:55,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1409
01:16:55,660 --> 01:16:56,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1410
01:16:56,660 --> 01:16:57,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1411
01:16:57,660 --> 01:16:58,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1412
01:16:58,660 --> 01:16:59,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1413
01:16:59,660 --> 01:17:00,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1414
01:17:00,660 --> 01:17:01,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1415
01:17:01,660 --> 01:17:02,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1416
01:17:02,660 --> 01:17:03,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1417
01:17:03,660 --> 01:17:04,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1418
01:17:04,660 --> 01:17:05,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1419
01:17:05,660 --> 01:17:06,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1420
01:17:06,660 --> 01:17:07,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1421
01:17:08,660 --> 01:17:09,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1422
01:17:09,660 --> 01:17:10,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1423
01:17:10,660 --> 01:17:11,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1424
01:17:11,660 --> 01:17:12,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1425
01:17:12,660 --> 01:17:13,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1426
01:17:13,660 --> 01:17:14,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1427
01:17:14,660 --> 01:17:15,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1428
01:17:15,660 --> 01:17:16,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1429
01:17:16,660 --> 01:17:17,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1430
01:17:17,660 --> 01:17:18,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1431
01:17:18,660 --> 01:17:19,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1432
01:17:19,660 --> 01:17:20,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1433
01:17:20,660 --> 01:17:21,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1434
01:17:21,660 --> 01:17:22,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1435
01:17:22,660 --> 01:17:23,660
You have to bring the knee more in towards your chest.

1436
01:17:23,660 --> 01:17:28,660
Each year at about this time we bring together our favorite high-tech journalists and analysts

1437
01:17:28,660 --> 01:17:33,660
to give you some great gift-giving ideas for those people who love to get high-tech gadgets for presents.

1438
01:17:33,660 --> 01:17:34,660
So pay attention.

1439
01:17:34,660 --> 01:17:36,660
We have a lot of very cool stuff to show you.

1440
01:17:36,660 --> 01:17:38,660
First of all, let's welcome Chris Gorman.

1441
01:17:38,660 --> 01:17:40,660
Chris is senior analyst with Creative Strategies.

1442
01:17:40,660 --> 01:17:43,660
Usually here with Tim Baharan from Creative Strategies.

1443
01:17:43,660 --> 01:17:45,660
We unfortunately have to be on a plane right now.

1444
01:17:45,660 --> 01:17:46,660
Doing a solo act.

1445
01:17:46,660 --> 01:17:47,660
She's back again since Chris.

1446
01:17:47,660 --> 01:17:49,660
Chris has lots of cool toys that you guys always have.

1447
01:17:49,660 --> 01:17:51,660
Time to get the eyes out again.

1448
01:17:51,660 --> 01:17:55,660
And a lot of PDA stuff to talk about, which is timely of course.

1449
01:17:55,660 --> 01:17:56,660
And what are you holding there?

1450
01:17:56,660 --> 01:17:57,660
That is a Sony...

1451
01:17:57,660 --> 01:17:59,660
This is the Sony Clie.

1452
01:18:01,660 --> 01:18:02,660
It's not as good.

1453
01:18:02,660 --> 01:18:05,660
It's not as Cookie Monster, but there's still a bit of kook there.

1454
01:18:10,660 --> 01:18:11,660
Maybe there.

1455
01:18:17,660 --> 01:18:18,660
Maybe there.

1456
01:18:20,660 --> 01:18:21,660
It's just discreet like.

1457
01:18:21,660 --> 01:18:24,660
This is the high end of the PDA.

1458
01:18:24,660 --> 01:18:26,660
It's a $400 gizmo.

1459
01:18:26,660 --> 01:18:27,660
And what's different about it?

1460
01:18:27,660 --> 01:18:30,660
Well, what's different and what's significant is a couple of things.

1461
01:18:30,660 --> 01:18:31,660
One, it's a Sony product.

1462
01:18:31,660 --> 01:18:33,660
With it being a Sony product, we're going to look for...

1463
01:18:33,660 --> 01:18:37,660
This is where PDA has really started to take off.

1464
01:18:37,660 --> 01:18:41,660
You can see now it wasn't long until we got the iPhone.

1465
01:18:41,660 --> 01:18:42,660
We got the iPhone.

1466
01:18:42,660 --> 01:18:46,660
So it's 2000 and 2007 years before the iPhone.

1467
01:18:46,660 --> 01:18:56,660
This was the best that we could do or the best that the tech giants could do when it came to touch screen, portable computers sort of stuff.

1468
01:18:56,660 --> 01:19:00,660
And then, of course, the fusion between phone and computer.

1469
01:19:00,660 --> 01:19:04,660
And that touch screen display.

1470
01:19:04,660 --> 01:19:10,660
I must admit, I was very impressed with the iPhone's touch screen display capabilities.

1471
01:19:10,660 --> 01:19:12,660
I thought it was going to be rubbish when it first came out.

1472
01:19:12,660 --> 01:19:17,660
I thought, do you know the way touch screen had always been built as, oh, it's amazing.

1473
01:19:17,660 --> 01:19:19,660
But it just wasn't there.

1474
01:19:19,660 --> 01:19:22,660
Like, you know, you needed a stylus for certain devices.

1475
01:19:22,660 --> 01:19:27,660
It didn't feel like it worked properly, but it really worked properly.

1476
01:19:27,660 --> 01:19:28,660
It was responsive.

1477
01:19:28,660 --> 01:19:31,660
It was very quick and responsive when the iPhone came out.

1478
01:19:31,660 --> 01:19:32,660
So they did a good job there in fairness.

1479
01:19:32,660 --> 01:19:34,660
Entertainment as being their emphasis going forward.

1480
01:19:34,660 --> 01:19:36,660
A little more multimedia attitude in here.

1481
01:19:36,660 --> 01:19:37,660
Absolutely.

1482
01:19:37,660 --> 01:19:39,660
I suppose the iPod touch was out before.

1483
01:19:39,660 --> 01:19:41,660
Maybe people had a taste of what was to come there.

1484
01:19:41,660 --> 01:19:42,660
But anyway.

1485
01:19:42,660 --> 01:19:44,660
They do have some cool gizmos.

1486
01:19:44,660 --> 01:19:46,660
They got what they call a jog wheel here on the side.

1487
01:19:46,660 --> 01:19:47,660
I'll just turn that around so we can see that.

1488
01:19:47,660 --> 01:19:48,660
That's kind of cool.

1489
01:19:48,660 --> 01:19:50,660
We actually showed that on one of the laptops before.

1490
01:19:50,660 --> 01:19:52,660
That little jog wheel so you can actually...

1491
01:19:52,660 --> 01:19:57,660
So you end up with one hand navigation on it.

1492
01:19:57,660 --> 01:19:58,660
Which is cool.

1493
01:19:58,660 --> 01:20:03,660
But the major emphasis, I think, with Sony is going to be this little gizmo here.

1494
01:20:03,660 --> 01:20:04,660
This is the memory stick.

1495
01:20:04,660 --> 01:20:09,660
Which goes into your camcorder, your digital still camera, on and on.

1496
01:20:09,660 --> 01:20:15,660
But what's really significant, I think, about Sony is they already have this up to 128 megs.

1497
01:20:15,660 --> 01:20:18,660
Going forward, that's going to build exponentially.

1498
01:20:18,660 --> 01:20:21,660
And I've actually seen videos run on the Clio that are on the stick.

1499
01:20:21,660 --> 01:20:22,660
Right.

1500
01:20:22,660 --> 01:20:25,660
I think you'll be seeing this as a media player of the future, the next Sony Walkman.

1501
01:20:25,660 --> 01:20:26,660
Cool.

1502
01:20:26,660 --> 01:20:27,660
But it is monochrome right now.

1503
01:20:27,660 --> 01:20:28,660
It is monochrome right now.

1504
01:20:28,660 --> 01:20:29,660
It is a hefty $400.

1505
01:20:29,660 --> 01:20:30,660
Yeah.

1506
01:20:30,660 --> 01:20:32,660
But it is a Sony product and it's got promise.

1507
01:20:32,660 --> 01:20:33,660
Yeah.

1508
01:20:33,660 --> 01:20:34,660
All right.

1509
01:20:34,660 --> 01:20:35,660
So that's a Clio.

1510
01:20:35,660 --> 01:20:36,660
Now let's go to the...

1511
01:20:36,660 --> 01:20:37,660
If you're really into little...

1512
01:20:37,660 --> 01:20:38,660
Little tiny.

1513
01:20:38,660 --> 01:20:39,660
This is the new Rex touch screen.

1514
01:20:39,660 --> 01:20:41,660
So we've seen Rex's before but this is different because...

1515
01:20:41,660 --> 01:20:43,660
This is different because you don't have to go...

1516
01:20:43,660 --> 01:20:46,660
Cold Chan Shafi, thank you very much.

1517
01:20:46,660 --> 01:20:50,660
...through all the weird buttons and the little scroll bars on the side in order to navigate through it.

1518
01:20:50,660 --> 01:20:51,660
So can you show Sassy touch screen, huh?

1519
01:20:51,660 --> 01:20:52,660
It is touch screen.

1520
01:20:52,660 --> 01:20:54,660
You can download from the web.

1521
01:20:54,660 --> 01:20:55,660
You can get your...

1522
01:20:55,660 --> 01:20:57,660
Do you know what I mean when I said I didn't really like the touch screen?

1523
01:20:57,660 --> 01:20:58,660
It was that kind of...

1524
01:20:58,660 --> 01:21:03,660
You press it and the screen kind of goes blank for a minute.

1525
01:21:03,660 --> 01:21:04,660
So can you show Sassy touch screen, huh?

1526
01:21:04,660 --> 01:21:05,660
It is touch screen.

1527
01:21:05,660 --> 01:21:07,660
You can download from the web.

1528
01:21:07,660 --> 01:21:08,660
That.

1529
01:21:08,660 --> 01:21:09,660
And it had...

1530
01:21:09,660 --> 01:21:16,660
When you pressed it as well, it kind of went a bit bluey, magenta, that strange color.

1531
01:21:16,660 --> 01:21:19,660
That's what I thought was going to happen with the iPhone.

1532
01:21:19,660 --> 01:21:25,660
That when you pressed it, it was going to be kind of rubbish like that, but it definitely was not.

1533
01:21:25,660 --> 01:21:27,660
You can get your stocks, you can get your daily...

1534
01:21:27,660 --> 01:21:29,660
Of course, you know all those buttons and all the...

1535
01:21:29,660 --> 01:21:31,660
It must have been before the iPhone came out.

1536
01:21:31,660 --> 01:21:43,660
Like, not Android, but other kind of phones that were precursors to the iPhone, do you know what I mean?

1537
01:21:43,660 --> 01:21:45,660
Running around.

1538
01:21:45,660 --> 01:21:46,660
Right, exactly.

1539
01:21:46,660 --> 01:21:47,660
And it's a PCMCA card.

1540
01:21:47,660 --> 01:21:48,660
It's a PC card, so...

1541
01:21:48,660 --> 01:21:53,660
Where have we got the eyes there?

1542
01:21:53,660 --> 01:22:00,660
So it does go into your laptop and you can sync with your Outlooker.

1543
01:22:00,660 --> 01:22:01,660
So download directly from your...

1544
01:22:01,660 --> 01:22:02,660
Absolutely.

1545
01:22:02,660 --> 01:22:05,660
Yeah, like an oil slick is right.

1546
01:22:05,660 --> 01:22:07,660
Why does it do that on those devices?

1547
01:22:07,660 --> 01:22:14,660
I mean, I know even if you press hard enough on the iPhone screen or an Android screen, you might get that as well.

1548
01:22:14,660 --> 01:22:18,660
Particularly on those kind of LCD displays.

1549
01:22:18,660 --> 01:22:21,660
Why do you get oil colours on it?

1550
01:22:21,660 --> 01:22:24,660
Is there oil in the fucking product? Is there?

1551
01:22:24,660 --> 01:22:28,660
Liquid crystal display LCD, so there must be liquid in the fucking thing.

1552
01:22:28,660 --> 01:22:30,660
And the liquid is probably in oil.

1553
01:22:30,660 --> 01:22:31,660
LCD.

1554
01:22:31,660 --> 01:22:32,660
Maybe what about these eyes on stew?

1555
01:22:32,660 --> 01:22:33,660
Does not work.

1556
01:22:33,660 --> 01:22:34,660
Does not work.

1557
01:22:34,660 --> 01:22:35,660
What about goofy stew?

1558
01:22:35,660 --> 01:22:36,660
$49 from Zircom.

1559
01:22:36,660 --> 01:22:50,660
I feel bad doing the stew because it's kind of mocking the main man.

1560
01:22:50,660 --> 01:22:52,660
But I like that facial expression there.

1561
01:22:52,660 --> 01:22:54,660
Liquid dreams.

1562
01:22:54,660 --> 01:22:55,660
Liquid dreams.

1563
01:22:55,660 --> 01:22:56,660
Nice little.

1564
01:22:56,660 --> 01:22:57,660
Very small.

1565
01:22:57,660 --> 01:22:57,660
Okay.

1566
01:22:57,660 --> 01:23:00,660
Next you have the visor which you're familiar with, but they've finally done something...

1567
01:23:00,660 --> 01:23:01,660
Familiar with but.

1568
01:23:01,660 --> 01:23:02,660
Right.

1569
01:23:02,660 --> 01:23:03,660
They finally...

1570
01:23:03,660 --> 01:23:04,660
Slot in the bag.

1571
01:23:04,660 --> 01:23:05,660
Is it?

1572
01:23:05,660 --> 01:23:06,660
Let's have a look at this.

1573
01:23:06,660 --> 01:23:07,660
What's that around?

1574
01:23:07,660 --> 01:23:08,660
That's $149 from Zircom.

1575
01:23:08,660 --> 01:23:09,660
Nice little.

1576
01:23:09,660 --> 01:23:10,660
Very small.

1577
01:23:10,660 --> 01:23:11,660
Okay.

1578
01:23:11,660 --> 01:23:13,660
Next you have the visor which you're familiar with, but they've finally done something with

1579
01:23:13,660 --> 01:23:14,660
that darn slot in the bag.

1580
01:23:14,660 --> 01:23:15,660
They've finally completed something on the promise of this...

1581
01:23:15,660 --> 01:23:16,660
You goddamn slot in the bag.

1582
01:23:16,660 --> 01:23:17,660
Very small.

1583
01:23:17,660 --> 01:23:22,200
Okay, next you have the visor which you're familiar with, but they've finally done something

1584
01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:23,540
with that darn slot in the bag.

1585
01:23:23,540 --> 01:23:31,560
They finally completed something on the promise of the springboard slot.

1586
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:32,920
And that's with this little gizmo.

1587
01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:34,260
This is the visor phone.

1588
01:23:34,260 --> 01:23:35,260
It's a cell phone.

1589
01:23:35,260 --> 01:23:36,260
It is a cell phone.

1590
01:23:36,260 --> 01:23:38,760
It sticks into the expansion slot in the visor.

1591
01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:39,760
Exactly.

1592
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,940
Just a matter of snapping it in, there's no download of software or anything.

1593
01:23:42,940 --> 01:23:45,540
And this becomes the keypad and all that stuff.

1594
01:23:45,540 --> 01:23:47,300
Yeah, it becomes the keypad.

1595
01:23:47,300 --> 01:23:51,100
You can use it as a regular phone up to your ear if you want.

1596
01:23:51,100 --> 01:23:53,920
Or on the side here, there's the earpiece.

1597
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:55,920
So you could be talking and doing your PDA stuff.

1598
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:58,920
Instead of carrying the cell phone and the PDA, you can actually carry the one thing.

1599
01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,140
There's promise that this is the first convergence product.

1600
01:24:02,140 --> 01:24:04,220
Seasoned Aramash viewers.

1601
01:24:04,220 --> 01:24:05,220
On the line.

1602
01:24:05,220 --> 01:24:12,060
$2.99 for the phone module for the sign-up of the service.

1603
01:24:12,060 --> 01:24:14,160
All right, now finally, we've got to look at this baby.

1604
01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:15,420
This is really cool, really new.

1605
01:24:15,420 --> 01:24:16,580
This is a neat little guy.

1606
01:24:16,580 --> 01:24:20,600
This is-- doesn't really work there, actually.

1607
01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:21,880
It's better when it's head on.

1608
01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:25,460
This is the-- called the Ergo Audrey from 3Com.

1609
01:24:25,460 --> 01:24:26,920
It's their internet appliance device.

1610
01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:29,920
What I'm liking about this is a couple things.

1611
01:24:29,920 --> 01:24:31,220
One, it's not a PC.

1612
01:24:31,220 --> 01:24:31,600
Okay.

1613
01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:33,000
No windows in here.

1614
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:33,840
There's no windows.

1615
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:34,800
There's no mouse--

1616
01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:35,220
Okay.

1617
01:24:35,220 --> 01:24:39,400
--out on stew there.

1618
01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:41,640
Look, little picture of stew in the middle of the device.

1619
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:44,860
Not going to work.

1620
01:24:44,860 --> 01:24:46,900
--for navigation.

1621
01:24:46,900 --> 01:24:48,080
There's no pull-down menus.

1622
01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:52,020
Internet terminal, put it on the kitchen table, or whatever.

1623
01:24:52,020 --> 01:24:52,900
Designed for the home.

1624
01:24:52,900 --> 01:24:53,900
Yeah, yeah.

1625
01:24:53,900 --> 01:24:58,080
And they've done some great strides in-- and we're live online right now, I see.

1626
01:24:58,080 --> 01:24:59,080
Right.

1627
01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:03,080
This is-- the buttons on the side here are for navigation for the date book.

1628
01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:05,580
You have to do your-- so it's sort of like a PDA in that sense.

1629
01:25:05,580 --> 01:25:06,580
Exactly, yeah.

1630
01:25:06,580 --> 01:25:08,800
And boom, there goes the dynamite.

1631
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:09,800
The web access-- you have your--

1632
01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:11,800
Look at this fucking machine, the Ergo.

1633
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:12,800
Address book.

1634
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:13,800
But it's a heavy blow.

1635
01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:14,800
And down here on the bottom is the--

1636
01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:16,800
It's a heavy blow to the industry.

1637
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:17,800
One button email.

1638
01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:18,800
One button email.

1639
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:20,800
And that little knob is what?

1640
01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:21,800
It's a little knob.

1641
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:23,800
This is probably one of the coolest little devices.

1642
01:25:23,800 --> 01:25:25,560
This is the channel selector.

1643
01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:28,760
It kind of goes back to the pre-digital TV when you had to get up and change--

1644
01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:29,260
Right.

1645
01:25:29,260 --> 01:25:30,800
So you want to go sports site, news site, blah, blah, blah.

1646
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:31,800
You just pushed it.

1647
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:35,180
It comes with some pre-determined, but you see it at the bottom of the screen.

1648
01:25:35,180 --> 01:25:35,680
Got it.

1649
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:37,200
You can go through ESPN and ABC.

1650
01:25:37,200 --> 01:25:38,760
Last but not least, what's this thing?

1651
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:40,060
This is actually the stylus.

1652
01:25:40,060 --> 01:25:42,400
It's not-- it looks like I'm going to try to-- you can write on the screen.

1653
01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:44,220
You can actually do script email, right?

1654
01:25:44,220 --> 01:25:45,720
You can on the email.

1655
01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:47,460
Just let her speak, Stu.

1656
01:25:47,460 --> 01:25:48,560
Let her speak.

1657
01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:50,160
You can write on the screen.

1658
01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:51,940
You can actually do script email, right?

1659
01:25:51,940 --> 01:25:55,680
You can on the email by hitting the create button.

1660
01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:56,660
You see it on top here.

1661
01:25:56,660 --> 01:25:57,740
You can either type using the wireless.

1662
01:25:57,740 --> 01:25:58,820
So type or actually draw.

1663
01:25:58,820 --> 01:25:59,320
Right.

1664
01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:01,120
Or you can also record up to a three minute message.

1665
01:26:01,120 --> 01:26:02,960
Tell us the coolest thing if this thing lights up, right?

1666
01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:05,240
Oh, if you have mail, this thing blinks bright gray.

1667
01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:06,520
So it's a visual reminder.

1668
01:26:06,520 --> 01:26:08,880
$500 from 3Com.

1669
01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:09,580
Cool stuff, Chris.

1670
01:26:09,580 --> 01:26:10,320
Thank you.

1671
01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:10,580
All right.

1672
01:26:10,580 --> 01:26:14,960
Now some other PDAs, a new desktop PC, and very--

1673
01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:19,000
You're making too.

1674
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:20,000
cool wireless broadband.

1675
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:32,840
And here to show that all to us is Larry Magus.

1676
01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:33,840
Larry is sending-- his eyes get bigger.

1677
01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:34,460
Larry Magus.

1678
01:26:34,460 --> 01:26:36,260
You're a consultant for CBS News and lots of other things.

1679
01:26:36,260 --> 01:26:36,920
Larry is everywhere.

1680
01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:37,920
You've got your favorite cool toys.

1681
01:26:37,920 --> 01:26:38,920
And I guess that's your favorite PDA?

1682
01:26:38,920 --> 01:26:39,920
Favorite cool toys.

1683
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:40,920
Well, I'm enjoying this.

1684
01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:41,300
This is the Compact iPack.

1685
01:26:41,300 --> 01:26:41,920
Everybody's heard a lot about this.

1686
01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:45,760
It runs the Microsoft Pocket PC operating system.

1687
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:46,380
It's got a media player.

1688
01:26:46,380 --> 01:26:46,920
You can play MP3 files.

1689
01:26:46,920 --> 01:26:50,760
What's interesting about it is it finally has handwriting recognition, which works.

1690
01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:51,760
Try it.

1691
01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:52,760
Yeah.

1692
01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:53,600
I've never tried this.

1693
01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:54,600
So this is untrained.

1694
01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:55,600
Write something.

1695
01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:56,600
So I can just write something?

1696
01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:57,600
See if it works.

1697
01:26:57,600 --> 01:26:59,600
OK, so if I write the word hello.

1698
01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:00,600
Oh, Grace.

1699
01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:01,600
Eat up, Martha.

1700
01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:03,600
Beat up, Martin.

1701
01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:05,600
Eat up, Martha.

1702
01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:06,600
Can I draw one more?

1703
01:27:06,600 --> 01:27:07,600
Sure.

1704
01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:08,600
See if I can recognize the word.

1705
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:09,600
My handwriting is pretty cool.

1706
01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:10,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1707
01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:11,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1708
01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:12,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1709
01:27:12,600 --> 01:27:13,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1710
01:27:13,600 --> 01:27:14,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1711
01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:15,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1712
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:16,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1713
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:17,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1714
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:18,600
I'm not sure if I can write it.

1715
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:21,440
I'm not sure if I can recognize the word.

1716
01:27:21,440 --> 01:27:23,440
My handwriting is pretty cool.

1717
01:27:23,440 --> 01:27:26,440
That's fucking if it recognizes that, I'd be impressed.

1718
01:27:26,440 --> 01:27:27,440
Come computer.

1719
01:27:27,440 --> 01:27:28,440
Come computer.

1720
01:27:28,440 --> 01:27:29,440
And on the side.

1721
01:27:29,440 --> 01:27:31,440
Amputee.

1722
01:27:31,440 --> 01:27:33,440
Eat up, Martha.

1723
01:27:33,440 --> 01:27:34,440
Amputee.

1724
01:27:34,440 --> 01:27:36,440
Well, I don't know why.

1725
01:27:36,440 --> 01:27:37,440
That's.

1726
01:27:37,440 --> 01:27:41,440
I'm writing on the side.

1727
01:27:41,440 --> 01:27:42,440
I've seen this.

1728
01:27:42,440 --> 01:27:45,440
Will it get this now?

1729
01:27:45,440 --> 01:27:48,440
Imagine it said abuser.

1730
01:27:48,440 --> 01:27:51,600
Well, I don't know why it said that, Stu.

1731
01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:53,600
It's happened like that before.

1732
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:54,080
Computer.

1733
01:27:54,080 --> 01:27:54,520
Yes.

1734
01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:55,040
Okay.

1735
01:27:55,160 --> 01:27:55,560
It learned.

1736
01:27:55,820 --> 01:27:56,920
And it's color screen, of course.

1737
01:27:56,940 --> 01:27:57,300
It's color.

1738
01:27:57,700 --> 01:27:57,960
And it's.

1739
01:27:58,000 --> 01:27:58,580
Voice recorder.

1740
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:01,160
Hello, Amputee.

1741
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:04,860
Welcome to Amputee Chronicles.

1742
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:05,680
Voice recorder.

1743
01:28:05,740 --> 01:28:06,300
All the things that.

1744
01:28:11,120 --> 01:28:12,300
Pocket PC has.

1745
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,880
It's just kind of cool, cool industrial design.

1746
01:28:15,060 --> 01:28:15,300
Yeah.

1747
01:28:15,480 --> 01:28:15,700
Okay.

1748
01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:16,460
So that's the iPad.

1749
01:28:16,700 --> 01:28:17,280
It costs about.

1750
01:28:17,300 --> 01:28:18,140
It costs about $4.50.

1751
01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:18,740
It's expensive.

1752
01:28:18,940 --> 01:28:20,020
It's $4.50.

1753
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:22,080
Absolutely.

1754
01:28:22,260 --> 01:28:22,500
All right.

1755
01:28:22,540 --> 01:28:23,700
Now, you want to go retro.

1756
01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:24,560
That's right.

1757
01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:26,820
You've got a very clever idea over there.

1758
01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:26,980
Yeah.

1759
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:27,960
No, this just came out.

1760
01:28:28,060 --> 01:28:30,100
It's the Mako from Diamond Multimedia.

1761
01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:31,360
And you open it up.

1762
01:28:31,540 --> 01:28:31,980
And believe it or not.

1763
01:28:32,360 --> 01:28:34,760
It's like an Apple Watch would be $4.50 now.

1764
01:28:35,440 --> 01:28:37,120
Is that worth compared to that.

1765
01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:38,200
Is that worth compared to that?

1766
01:28:38,620 --> 01:28:39,600
You know, what were you getting?

1767
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:43,460
What do you get with the Apple Watch that you don't get with that?

1768
01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:48,260
It's probably a lot more worth it in the sense that back then.

1769
01:28:48,500 --> 01:28:49,820
Thank you very much, Shafi.

1770
01:28:49,900 --> 01:28:50,100
Oh, Lee.

1771
01:28:50,160 --> 01:28:50,380
Oh, Lee.

1772
01:28:50,620 --> 01:28:54,720
Back then, everything wasn't connected via the internet via Wi-Fi and all that.

1773
01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:58,600
So the connectivity is what sells the device.

1774
01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:04,440
$4.50 though for that fucking thing.

1775
01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:10,640
It was just like a glorified USB stick that had writing capability that you probably wouldn't

1776
01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:11,860
really use that much anyway.

1777
01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:13,880
But I suppose email was just kicking off.

1778
01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:18,160
So just to make like little email notes, that would probably be handy.

1779
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:22,740
It worked now watching the stream, trying to dodge all the COVID cases around me.

1780
01:29:23,100 --> 01:29:24,520
Lads, it's just a head cold.

1781
01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:28,120
Shout out to Mark Delaney, who's nearly over the Rona 2.

1782
01:29:28,700 --> 01:29:30,240
Hope you're getting on well there, lads.

1783
01:29:30,240 --> 01:29:36,640
Let me do that vitamin C.

1784
01:29:36,700 --> 01:29:36,860
All right.

1785
01:29:36,940 --> 01:29:41,220
Now, if you want to go retro, you've got a very clever idea over there.

1786
01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:41,360
Yeah.

1787
01:29:41,400 --> 01:29:42,360
Now, this just came out.

1788
01:29:42,500 --> 01:29:44,560
It's the Mako from Diamond Multimedia.

1789
01:29:45,180 --> 01:29:47,880
And you open it up, and believe it or not, you know what this is?

1790
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:48,320
You ever seen this before?

1791
01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:48,900
What is that called?

1792
01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:49,580
It's called a keyboard.

1793
01:29:50,140 --> 01:29:50,940
The computers have it.

1794
01:29:51,420 --> 01:29:54,920
But it also has a stylus and touchscreen, 16 megabytes of memory.

1795
01:29:54,920 --> 01:29:56,680
It looks like the old Scion in a way, right?

1796
01:29:56,680 --> 01:29:57,200
It's very much.

1797
01:29:57,280 --> 01:29:58,920
In fact, it's based on the Scion operating system.

1798
01:29:58,920 --> 01:29:59,920
But that's really a computer.

1799
01:29:59,920 --> 01:30:01,200
It is, in a sense.

1800
01:30:01,380 --> 01:30:01,740
It's not a computer.

1801
01:30:02,700 --> 01:30:04,640
Maybe it would be great to have some...

1802
01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:08,880
The only problem with the images in OBS is you can't move them.

1803
01:30:08,940 --> 01:30:09,940
Oh, you can.

1804
01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:11,500
Oh, brilliant.

1805
01:30:13,540 --> 01:30:13,980
Brilliant.

1806
01:30:14,860 --> 01:30:15,940
In a sense, you can do email.

1807
01:30:16,100 --> 01:30:16,320
You can...

1808
01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:19,720
Thank you very much there, Living Dead.

1809
01:30:20,420 --> 01:30:21,520
Thank you very much.

1810
01:30:25,320 --> 01:30:26,840
You can fucking move them around.

1811
01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,620
I thought you were restricted to whatever it was that...

1812
01:30:29,620 --> 01:30:33,300
You wait for the hand tool like that, and you move them there like that.

1813
01:30:33,300 --> 01:30:34,440
That's the web with the right equipment.

1814
01:30:34,440 --> 01:30:34,440
Okay.

1815
01:30:34,440 --> 01:30:34,440
Oh, perfect.

1816
01:30:35,020 --> 01:30:37,760
It's about $350, so it's a little pricey again.

1817
01:30:38,140 --> 01:30:38,640
But a lot of people...

1818
01:30:38,640 --> 01:30:39,580
If you want to have a keyboard, what do you mean?

1819
01:30:39,580 --> 01:30:42,220
A lot of people don't like using stylus, so this is a way to use a keyboard.

1820
01:30:42,220 --> 01:30:42,440
Okay.

1821
01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:43,620
Now, speaking of...

1822
01:30:43,620 --> 01:30:43,800
Right.

1823
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:45,640
...again, that is a minute digital...

1824
01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:46,600
That is a digital camera, right?

1825
01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:49,260
This is the Canon S100...

1826
01:30:49,260 --> 01:30:51,160
Canon console device.

1827
01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:51,940
In fact, they make a...

1828
01:30:51,940 --> 01:30:52,720
So it's a digital L.

1829
01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:53,400
It's a digital L.

1830
01:30:53,440 --> 01:30:56,440
They make a film camera like a 2.1 megapixel, so it's fairly...

1831
01:30:56,440 --> 01:30:57,740
So it has an LCD screen on the back?

1832
01:30:57,740 --> 01:30:58,900
Absolutely, LCD screen.

1833
01:30:59,440 --> 01:31:02,020
It's the tiniest high-quality digital camera.

1834
01:31:02,060 --> 01:31:02,740
That's why I like it.

1835
01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:03,500
I keep it in my pocket.

1836
01:31:03,580 --> 01:31:05,220
I've got better ones, none smaller.

1837
01:31:05,760 --> 01:31:09,440
The data is stored on a little memory card, which pops out a little compact flash.

1838
01:31:09,460 --> 01:31:09,940
Okay, so flash memory.

1839
01:31:10,060 --> 01:31:11,400
Now, let's tie the picture together.

1840
01:31:11,500 --> 01:31:14,840
The issue is now you want to look at the pictures, and that's why you've picked this printer.

1841
01:31:14,940 --> 01:31:17,940
Hewlett-Packard's Photosmart's line of printers is very cool.

1842
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:21,000
If you want to take your memory right from your camera, put it in the printer,

1843
01:31:21,380 --> 01:31:25,760
you can push the Save button and save it to your PC, or you can print it directly from the printer.

1844
01:31:26,360 --> 01:31:26,640
Okay.

1845
01:31:26,980 --> 01:31:29,500
So, again, no cables, no IR, nothing.

1846
01:31:29,620 --> 01:31:29,780
Right.

1847
01:31:30,140 --> 01:31:30,760
It's like film.

1848
01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:32,920
Take it out of the camera, put it in the processor.

1849
01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:36,240
And by the way, you get a really good monochrome 11 and color.

1850
01:31:36,420 --> 01:31:37,100
It's a good overall camera.

1851
01:31:37,100 --> 01:31:37,940
Now, what was this camera?

1852
01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:38,720
This was the...

1853
01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:39,440
This is the Elf.

1854
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,180
This is the Canon Elf Digital.

1855
01:31:41,420 --> 01:31:42,220
Okay, very cool.

1856
01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:44,300
And the HP Photosmart.

1857
01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:49,120
Now, speaking of HP, you brought this brand-new baby, which literally just arrived.

1858
01:31:49,160 --> 01:31:49,480
Absolutely.

1859
01:31:49,820 --> 01:31:51,580
And this is a PC, desktop.

1860
01:31:51,580 --> 01:31:52,140
This is a PC.

1861
01:31:52,340 --> 01:31:53,620
It does everything a PC does.

1862
01:31:53,660 --> 01:31:54,100
It is a PC.

1863
01:31:54,240 --> 01:31:56,020
What's cool about it is the little doors in front.

1864
01:31:56,480 --> 01:31:59,820
Here, for example, is your speaker, your headphones, whatever.

1865
01:31:59,820 --> 01:32:00,820
So this is the front of the computer.

1866
01:32:00,820 --> 01:32:01,020
Right.

1867
01:32:01,260 --> 01:32:02,900
You've even got your serial port.

1868
01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:04,580
You want to plug a digital camera into something.

1869
01:32:04,700 --> 01:32:05,400
There is right there.

1870
01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:05,740
Okay.

1871
01:32:05,780 --> 01:32:06,300
Turn it around.

1872
01:32:06,420 --> 01:32:08,220
You're going to find it's got all of those ports.

1873
01:32:08,460 --> 01:32:11,200
And, like the Apple Mac, it's got an Ethernet.

1874
01:32:11,200 --> 01:32:12,460
You just put the eyes on everything.

1875
01:32:12,560 --> 01:32:13,480
It works on everything, though.

1876
01:32:13,480 --> 01:32:13,980
You've got a cable modem.

1877
01:32:14,060 --> 01:32:15,280
Okay, so built an Ethernet.

1878
01:32:15,860 --> 01:32:16,820
And a couple of slots.

1879
01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:18,180
He only has two, but you know...

1880
01:32:18,180 --> 01:32:28,820
Maybe we could put it on some videos of really respectful, reverential moments that have been recorded on video through the annals of time.

1881
01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:31,820
We can just go at them with the fucking googly eyes.

1882
01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:33,760
I think that would be time well spent.

1883
01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:34,840
Now that everybody's got USB.

1884
01:32:34,840 --> 01:32:36,200
But it's in business grade.

1885
01:32:36,300 --> 01:32:37,720
Can I get it in aquamarine?

1886
01:32:37,720 --> 01:32:38,400
Not yet.

1887
01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:38,780
You should.

1888
01:32:38,780 --> 01:32:40,880
I don't think they've gotten on that bandwagon yet.

1889
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:41,140
I don't know.

1890
01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:42,960
Right now, this keyboard is kind of interesting.

1891
01:32:43,180 --> 01:32:43,800
So let's...

1892
01:32:43,800 --> 01:32:45,680
What's the deal on this monster keyboard?

1893
01:32:45,680 --> 01:32:46,000
I know.

1894
01:32:46,300 --> 01:32:47,780
They give you volume control.

1895
01:32:47,780 --> 01:32:48,880
MP3 player sort of...

1896
01:32:48,880 --> 01:32:50,280
MP3, you can control your CD, DVD.

1897
01:32:50,300 --> 01:32:51,060
With his hand.

1898
01:32:51,260 --> 01:32:51,500
Right.

1899
01:32:51,620 --> 01:32:52,240
It's got...

1900
01:32:52,240 --> 01:32:55,300
Maybe even his hand could do the...

1901
01:32:55,300 --> 01:32:56,320
All the things he wants.

1902
01:32:56,400 --> 01:32:57,320
God, you don't have to type in him.

1903
01:32:57,340 --> 01:32:57,880
We're just to push buttons.

1904
01:32:58,260 --> 01:32:58,880
How much does this...

1905
01:32:58,880 --> 01:33:00,960
Thank you very much there, Harry Fontaine.

1906
01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:02,880
Hope you're getting on well there.

1907
01:33:03,360 --> 01:33:05,100
Long time watcher, first time tipper.

1908
01:33:05,220 --> 01:33:06,420
Keep up the pacey, pacey work.

1909
01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:10,380
Pacey from fucking Dawson's crack was asking for you.

1910
01:33:10,440 --> 01:33:10,960
Thanks for the tip.

1911
01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:13,220
It's going to cost $1049, $1049 without a monitor.

1912
01:33:14,400 --> 01:33:15,700
The Queen's funeral.

1913
01:33:15,860 --> 01:33:17,060
Was there any other...

1914
01:33:17,060 --> 01:33:18,400
The JFK speech.

1915
01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:20,080
Fucking...

1916
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:21,440
I had a dream speech.

1917
01:33:21,440 --> 01:33:21,620
Not a monitor.

1918
01:33:21,900 --> 01:33:22,560
And what's the speed?

1919
01:33:22,660 --> 01:33:23,020
I mean, what's inside?

1920
01:33:23,020 --> 01:33:24,180
It's an 800 megahertz penny.

1921
01:33:24,180 --> 01:33:24,400
Okay.

1922
01:33:24,400 --> 01:33:25,100
So pretty good high-end.

1923
01:33:25,100 --> 01:33:25,860
Oh, very powerful.

1924
01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:26,240
Not that.

1925
01:33:26,440 --> 01:33:26,640
Absolutely.

1926
01:33:26,820 --> 01:33:27,060
Finally.

1927
01:33:29,240 --> 01:33:29,540
Finally.

1928
01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:31,940
Larry, what is this weird white thing?

1929
01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:33,020
I have one of these on my roof.

1930
01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:35,360
It's a microwave antenna for sprint broadband.

1931
01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:37,060
And basically...

1932
01:33:37,060 --> 01:33:38,500
Ross Kemp, thank you very much.

1933
01:33:38,580 --> 01:33:39,040
Merry Christmas.

1934
01:33:39,640 --> 01:33:40,960
I hope you have a good, good...

1935
01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:41,500
A lot of people...

1936
01:33:41,500 --> 01:33:42,140
Wireless broadband.

1937
01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:43,620
Wireless broadband for the home.

1938
01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:44,040
Fixed.

1939
01:33:44,320 --> 01:33:45,620
That's Wi-Fi, look.

1940
01:33:45,620 --> 01:33:46,000
...on the roof.

1941
01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:47,660
You have to live in certain markets.

1942
01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:50,200
Phoenix, Northern California.

1943
01:33:50,340 --> 01:33:53,620
So if I couldn't get DSL or I don't like DSL, if I can't get cable...

1944
01:33:53,620 --> 01:34:03,180
...modem or I don't like cable modem.

1945
01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:05,660
This is actually a way to get broadband internet without wires.

1946
01:34:05,680 --> 01:34:06,080
Exactly.

1947
01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:06,900
It puts this in your roof.

1948
01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:07,820
It's very fast.

1949
01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:09,280
In fact, it's faster than many...

1950
01:34:09,280 --> 01:34:10,640
Like this.

1951
01:34:10,780 --> 01:34:12,780
The angle of the eyes on him there.

1952
01:34:12,780 --> 01:34:12,880
Okay.

1953
01:34:12,880 --> 01:34:17,760
I mean, I know that's classic right there.

1954
01:34:18,980 --> 01:34:20,100
Cable and DSL systems.

1955
01:34:20,100 --> 01:34:20,260
Beautiful.

1956
01:34:20,600 --> 01:34:20,860
Beautiful.

1957
01:34:20,860 --> 01:34:21,360
Very reliable.

1958
01:34:21,480 --> 01:34:23,260
I have it in my house and I'm actually enjoying it.

1959
01:34:23,340 --> 01:34:23,680
I really like it.

1960
01:34:23,680 --> 01:34:24,020
You're using it?

1961
01:34:24,100 --> 01:34:24,420
Absolutely.

1962
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:25,140
Cost again?

1963
01:34:25,340 --> 01:34:28,640
Costs $49 a month or $39 in some markets depending where you live.

1964
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:29,260
You buy it from Sprint.

1965
01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:30,400
You get it from Sprint broadband.

1966
01:34:30,620 --> 01:34:30,940
Interesting.

1967
01:34:31,100 --> 01:34:31,860
Wireless broadband.

1968
01:34:31,940 --> 01:34:32,240
Absolutely.

1969
01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:33,160
Thanks a lot, Larry.

1970
01:34:33,180 --> 01:34:33,480
My pleasure.

1971
01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:34,260
Thanks, Larry.

1972
01:34:34,260 --> 01:34:36,480
More goodies still to come including the Sony...

1973
01:34:36,480 --> 01:34:37,300
PS2.

1974
01:34:37,400 --> 01:34:37,800
Come on.

1975
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:38,720
PlayStation 2.

1976
01:34:39,140 --> 01:34:39,720
Unbelievable.

1977
01:34:39,720 --> 01:34:42,520
A new version of the Sony Ibo Pet Robot Dog.

1978
01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:43,260
Don't go away.

1979
01:34:44,180 --> 01:34:46,500
This is the Holiday Buyer's Guide 2000.

1980
01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:49,360
Does that mean it was 1999?

1981
01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:50,880
Oh, no.

1982
01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:51,680
Yeah, no.

1983
01:34:51,740 --> 01:34:52,160
2000.

1984
01:34:52,260 --> 01:34:53,660
Because PS2 came out in 2000.

1985
01:34:53,820 --> 01:34:54,180
Yeah, right?

1986
01:34:54,280 --> 01:34:55,820
So this would be November.

1987
01:34:56,480 --> 01:34:58,300
Probably November or December 2000.

1988
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:13,880
Lovely whip to the fucking camera there from his face.

1989
01:35:15,500 --> 01:35:16,540
Whip to the cam.

1990
01:35:16,660 --> 01:35:17,200
Whip to the cam.

1991
01:35:17,300 --> 01:35:18,780
Three, two, one.

1992
01:35:19,220 --> 01:35:20,340
And whip, Stu.

1993
01:35:21,740 --> 01:35:22,220
Whip.

1994
01:35:22,220 --> 01:35:25,420
Beautiful.

1995
01:35:26,420 --> 01:35:27,900
It's a bit of a fucking...

1996
01:35:27,900 --> 01:35:29,700
Amist vibe there.

1997
01:35:37,260 --> 01:35:43,740
Joining us now with some more cool gift-giving ideas for techies are Mike Langberg, personal technology editor.

1998
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:45,840
Beautiful stuff going on here.

1999
01:35:47,020 --> 01:35:48,160
There's Langberg.

2000
01:35:48,880 --> 01:35:51,280
And then who's this cool customer over here?

2001
01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:51,560
Look.

2002
01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:55,560
-

2003
01:36:19,740 --> 01:36:20,580
- Sidder?

2004
01:36:20,580 --> 01:36:22,580
- -

2005
01:36:22,580 --> 01:36:25,580
- San Jose Mercury News, and also Elio Weinman.

2006
01:36:25,580 --> 01:36:28,340
Elio is the gadget and toy expert, I guess you'd say,

2007
01:36:28,340 --> 01:36:30,500
for Ziv Davis Smart Business Magazine,

2008
01:36:30,500 --> 01:36:32,260
which I guess used to be PC Computing.

2009
01:36:32,260 --> 01:36:33,880
- Exactly. - Okay, and you've changed your name.

2010
01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:34,720
That's you.

2011
01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:37,060
All right, so let's change your name.

2012
01:36:37,060 --> 01:36:38,540
Okay.

2013
01:36:38,540 --> 01:36:41,020
Gadget and toy expert.

2014
01:36:41,020 --> 01:36:43,180
I don't think there's been a better design, is there,

2015
01:36:43,180 --> 01:36:45,900
than the fucking PS2, that monolithic.

2016
01:36:45,900 --> 01:36:47,000
You could stand it up.

2017
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:49,060
I had it sitting down.

2018
01:36:49,060 --> 01:36:52,320
Mine broke about two years after getting it.

2019
01:36:52,320 --> 01:36:56,820
I wouldn't play discs properly, and I remember going online, finding out, I had to take the fucking thing apart.

2020
01:36:56,820 --> 01:36:58,820
Very proud of myself.

2021
01:36:58,820 --> 01:37:11,580
I can't remember what I had to do, but it was something to do with moving the fucking laser that read the disc, moving the little yoke a few millimeters to the side and putting something in there.

2022
01:37:11,580 --> 01:37:13,580
Bit of BluTac or something, it worked.

2023
01:37:13,580 --> 01:37:16,000
But there hasn't been a better design.

2024
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:19,580
And all the new ones are just kind of like, the new one's too big.

2025
01:37:19,580 --> 01:37:20,580
You know?

2026
01:37:20,580 --> 01:37:22,340
It's much too big.

2027
01:37:22,340 --> 01:37:28,340
They're bringing out a PS4 or PS5 Pro and a PS5 kind of mini Pro as well.

2028
01:37:28,340 --> 01:37:34,100
I saw there on the news and I was thinking, you can't even buy the original one.

2029
01:37:34,100 --> 01:37:35,100
You know?

2030
01:37:35,100 --> 01:37:38,100
At least get the original one on sale, Ed.

2031
01:37:38,100 --> 01:37:41,360
That's the only reason I would have.

2032
01:37:41,360 --> 01:37:43,360
Well, I wouldn't have bought one.

2033
01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:44,860
I'd probably have bought one now.

2034
01:37:44,860 --> 01:37:54,860
I usually wait until a year or two after they've been released because they're too expensive and the game catalog isn't justified.

2035
01:37:54,860 --> 01:38:01,180
It doesn't justify the purchase, but I get one now, you know, but they're not available.

2036
01:38:01,180 --> 01:38:06,020
And I would have definitely rather had that than the Xbox.

2037
01:38:06,020 --> 01:38:10,520
But I was given out about the Xbox yesterday saying, oh, it's fucking shite and all that.

2038
01:38:10,520 --> 01:38:14,580
But I just had to restart the console, particularly because it was on stream.

2039
01:38:15,780 --> 01:38:18,040
It was I wasn't going to go through that.

2040
01:38:18,120 --> 01:38:18,840
I didn't want to.

2041
01:38:19,020 --> 01:38:21,680
It was like me saying I don't want to play Elden Ring.

2042
01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:27,100
There earlier on because I don't want to repeatedly fail on the stream.

2043
01:38:29,260 --> 01:38:36,940
Restarting Hitman again and restarting the console and putting that on only for it not to play the game was something I didn't want to happen.

2044
01:38:36,940 --> 01:38:39,280
So I would have rather have played Stuart Shaffey videos.

2045
01:38:39,860 --> 01:38:41,920
But that said, anyway, all said and done.

2046
01:38:42,060 --> 01:38:45,420
I think it was an unwarranted attack on new technology.

2047
01:38:45,620 --> 01:38:51,860
It sent me in a spiral of going on about the the way that old technology here was better.

2048
01:38:52,020 --> 01:38:53,060
And it did the trick.

2049
01:38:53,780 --> 01:38:56,640
But there's a lot about the new stuff, which is good as well.

2050
01:38:57,800 --> 01:39:02,800
It's a Sony consumer camcorder, a disc man there.

2051
01:39:03,300 --> 01:39:04,720
I wonder if these are all Sony products.

2052
01:39:04,900 --> 01:39:05,720
It would be great.

2053
01:39:05,940 --> 01:39:07,700
I'm not sure if he said your man's from Sony.

2054
01:39:09,480 --> 01:39:17,360
So San Jose Mercury News, Mike Langberg, an Elio wine man from Smart Business Mag.

2055
01:39:17,360 --> 01:39:19,420
Which I guess used to be PC Computing.

2056
01:39:19,680 --> 01:39:19,960
Exactly.

2057
01:39:20,180 --> 01:39:20,400
Okay.

2058
01:39:20,540 --> 01:39:21,300
And you changed your name.

2059
01:39:21,360 --> 01:39:21,720
That's you.

2060
01:39:22,160 --> 01:39:22,420
All right.

2061
01:39:22,420 --> 01:39:23,360
So let's start with you, Mike.

2062
01:39:23,420 --> 01:39:24,480
You have a bunch of cool things here.

2063
01:39:24,540 --> 01:39:27,020
First of all, you have a palm for the person.

2064
01:39:28,020 --> 01:39:28,340
Palm.

2065
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:31,180
Hasn't gotten a palm yet, I guess.

2066
01:39:31,300 --> 01:39:31,500
Right.

2067
01:39:31,620 --> 01:39:36,560
And this is why LOD on my PS3 put real sour taste on the brand for you.

2068
01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:39,020
What's the YLOD on the PS3?

2069
01:39:39,580 --> 01:39:40,640
I liked the PS3.

2070
01:39:40,740 --> 01:39:42,840
I thought it was a great, great console.

2071
01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:51,120
I had the original chunky 60 gig and then I had a slim as well.

2072
01:39:52,440 --> 01:39:53,660
60 gig was special.

2073
01:39:54,360 --> 01:39:55,700
You could play backwards.

2074
01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:56,940
It was backwards compatible.

2075
01:39:57,620 --> 01:40:00,680
It had a CF slot.

2076
01:40:00,940 --> 01:40:01,820
Not that I've used it.

2077
01:40:01,900 --> 01:40:07,300
It had a memory stick pro slot and it had an SD card slot for a USB.

2078
01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:09,700
Could play the Blu-rays, obviously.

2079
01:40:10,860 --> 01:40:14,380
And what else?

2080
01:40:14,840 --> 01:40:15,380
I can't remember.

2081
01:40:15,540 --> 01:40:16,560
I don't think it did anything else.

2082
01:40:16,700 --> 01:40:17,320
But it was.

2083
01:40:17,940 --> 01:40:20,920
The backwards compatibility was the best thing about it.

2084
01:40:21,260 --> 01:40:22,540
Yellow light of doom.

2085
01:40:24,100 --> 01:40:24,540
Yeah.

2086
01:40:25,400 --> 01:40:26,680
It stopped playing Blu-rays, mine.

2087
01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:28,880
This is the Palm M100.

2088
01:40:29,180 --> 01:40:33,060
And the big advantage of it is it's the least expensive PDA on the market right now.

2089
01:40:33,060 --> 01:40:33,380
A little bit of course.

2090
01:40:33,680 --> 01:40:34,160
Okay.

2091
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:35,140
Turn it on.

2092
01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:35,740
Yeah.

2093
01:40:36,340 --> 01:40:38,000
And this costs $149.

2094
01:40:38,400 --> 01:40:40,160
So it's a Palm, but a little scaled down.

2095
01:40:40,280 --> 01:40:40,480
Right.

2096
01:40:40,660 --> 01:40:44,120
But it does everything that the average individual user is going to need.

2097
01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:45,440
So maybe you want to get your teenager.

2098
01:40:45,920 --> 01:40:47,720
The original, sorry to keep going on.

2099
01:40:47,820 --> 01:40:51,260
The PS4 I have, the original one, it's so fucking loud.

2100
01:40:51,940 --> 01:40:53,920
Like how did they make console that loud?

2101
01:40:54,200 --> 01:40:55,840
I don't have the Pro or the Slim.

2102
01:40:56,180 --> 01:40:59,160
Hopefully they did a better job on the noise reduction on those machines.

2103
01:40:59,160 --> 01:41:03,900
But the original one I have, I just had to stop playing it sometimes because it was just going

2104
01:41:03,900 --> 01:41:07,180
louder than the fucking games.

2105
01:41:09,360 --> 01:41:10,880
It's just my two cents on it.

2106
01:41:10,980 --> 01:41:11,840
You're a key to Palm.

2107
01:41:12,020 --> 01:41:12,640
That's the way to go.

2108
01:41:12,720 --> 01:41:13,520
This is the way to start.

2109
01:41:13,640 --> 01:41:17,060
Now what about this like miniature sort of Blackberry type thing here?

2110
01:41:17,120 --> 01:41:17,220
Yeah.

2111
01:41:18,420 --> 01:41:19,500
I didn't clean it.

2112
01:41:19,560 --> 01:41:19,720
No.

2113
01:41:20,780 --> 01:41:25,380
Could be a chance to fucking get the Hoover out and clean or get one of those dustbusters

2114
01:41:25,380 --> 01:41:25,860
or something.

2115
01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:29,680
As I recall, it did make a loud noise even when it was first.

2116
01:41:30,960 --> 01:41:33,020
When I had it first, it was still loud.

2117
01:41:33,520 --> 01:41:34,080
Oh, I'm sorry.

2118
01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:35,380
The Rim Blackberry has been real.

2119
01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:37,400
The Rim Blackberry here.

2120
01:41:37,520 --> 01:41:39,360
And look at this in the rafters.

2121
01:41:39,720 --> 01:41:41,460
Somebody waiting down the back there.

2122
01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:46,040
And it looks like I was thinking he had a mask on or something because it looks like he's

2123
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:47,220
got a green face.

2124
01:41:48,220 --> 01:41:51,300
Be interesting to see if this fella's face is green when we get down to him.

2125
01:41:51,300 --> 01:41:51,640
Yeah.

2126
01:41:51,640 --> 01:41:59,180
For the person who hasn't gotten to Palm yet, I guess.

2127
01:41:59,300 --> 01:41:59,500
Right.

2128
01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:01,320
And this is the Palm M100.

2129
01:42:01,640 --> 01:42:05,520
And the big advantage of it is it's the least expensive PDA on the market right now.

2130
01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:06,920
A little bit before the screen.

2131
01:42:07,140 --> 01:42:07,580
Turn it on.

2132
01:42:08,040 --> 01:42:08,180
Yeah.

2133
01:42:08,840 --> 01:42:10,440
And this costs $149.

2134
01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:12,600
So it's a Palm but a little scaled down.

2135
01:42:12,740 --> 01:42:12,940
Right.

2136
01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:16,580
But it does everything that the average individual user is going to need.

2137
01:42:16,580 --> 01:42:18,860
So maybe you want to get your teenager or your kid a Palm.

2138
01:42:18,860 --> 01:42:19,060
Right.

2139
01:42:19,060 --> 01:42:19,340
That's the way.

2140
01:42:19,340 --> 01:42:20,280
So you're an ant.

2141
01:42:20,340 --> 01:42:20,680
There we go.

2142
01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:22,040
So you're green.

2143
01:42:22,160 --> 01:42:22,700
The way to start.

2144
01:42:22,820 --> 01:42:26,220
Now what about this like miniature sort of Blackberry type thing here?

2145
01:42:26,240 --> 01:42:26,240
Yeah.

2146
01:42:26,360 --> 01:42:26,760
The...

2147
01:42:26,760 --> 01:42:27,780
Rim?

2148
01:42:28,220 --> 01:42:28,500
The...

2149
01:42:28,500 --> 01:42:29,080
Oh, I'm sorry.

2150
01:42:29,180 --> 01:42:29,580
Yes.

2151
01:42:33,380 --> 01:42:36,800
Now what about this like miniature sort of Blackberry type thing?

2152
01:42:40,700 --> 01:42:41,800
Let's see that again.

2153
01:42:42,060 --> 01:42:42,280
Yeah.

2154
01:42:42,500 --> 01:42:43,060
The...

2155
01:42:43,060 --> 01:42:44,100
Oh, I'm sorry.

2156
01:42:44,100 --> 01:42:44,440
The...

2157
01:42:44,440 --> 01:42:44,440
Oh, I'm sorry.

2158
01:42:44,440 --> 01:42:47,440
What about this like miniature sort of Blackberry type thing here?

2159
01:42:47,460 --> 01:42:47,500
Yeah.

2160
01:42:48,120 --> 01:42:48,440
The...

2161
01:42:48,440 --> 01:42:49,180
Oh, I'm sorry.

2162
01:42:49,380 --> 01:42:50,880
The Rim Blackberry has been real popular.

2163
01:42:50,880 --> 01:42:51,580
It's robust.

2164
01:42:52,220 --> 01:42:53,940
You wouldn't worry about dropping it from that height.

2165
01:42:54,660 --> 01:42:56,600
It's got a nice bit of fucking protection around it.

2166
01:42:56,600 --> 01:42:57,660
People on an expense account.

2167
01:42:57,800 --> 01:42:57,860
Yeah.

2168
01:42:57,860 --> 01:42:58,540
But it's quite expensive.

2169
01:42:58,540 --> 01:42:58,740
Yeah.

2170
01:42:58,740 --> 01:43:00,620
Two-way email to a pager-like device.

2171
01:43:00,740 --> 01:43:02,460
This is the alternative that's actually affordable.

2172
01:43:02,620 --> 01:43:04,800
This is the Motorola Talkabout T900.

2173
01:43:05,380 --> 01:43:09,580
Costs only $99 generally with the service credit that you get.

2174
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,280
And services starts for around $10 a month.

2175
01:43:12,340 --> 01:43:14,600
So it's actually an affordable way to send email back and forth.

2176
01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:14,760
Wireless email.

2177
01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:17,380
You got the keyboard so you can send the email, receive email.

2178
01:43:17,540 --> 01:43:21,360
And you may have a hard time believing it, but you can actually type with your thumbs on this little keyboard.

2179
01:43:21,360 --> 01:43:22,100
You can do it.

2180
01:43:22,180 --> 01:43:22,320
All right.

2181
01:43:22,360 --> 01:43:22,700
Not bad.

2182
01:43:22,940 --> 01:43:23,180
Okay.

2183
01:43:23,260 --> 01:43:24,660
So there are two cool little gadgets there.

2184
01:43:24,720 --> 01:43:26,280
Let's talk about the MP3 player.

2185
01:43:26,380 --> 01:43:27,240
I'll hold this one up to you.

2186
01:43:27,600 --> 01:43:28,640
There's a million of them out there.

2187
01:43:28,660 --> 01:43:29,300
Why do you like this one?

2188
01:43:29,740 --> 01:43:31,180
Most MP3 players are using...

2189
01:43:31,180 --> 01:43:33,160
It's like you might as well just get a Discman.

2190
01:43:33,320 --> 01:43:36,280
Is this an MP3 player that allows you to play CDs as well?

2191
01:43:36,940 --> 01:43:37,580
I think solids...

2192
01:43:37,580 --> 01:43:38,560
Or is it...

2193
01:43:38,560 --> 01:43:42,100
Plays the CDs with MP3 files on this that you've burnt?

2194
01:43:42,100 --> 01:43:42,480
State memory.

2195
01:43:42,620 --> 01:43:43,200
Very expensive.

2196
01:43:43,420 --> 01:43:44,200
Small capacity.

2197
01:43:44,960 --> 01:43:45,980
Fucking nomad.

2198
01:43:47,020 --> 01:43:48,060
Creative labs.

2199
01:43:48,680 --> 01:43:51,640
This has got a 6 gigabyte hard drive in it.

2200
01:43:54,060 --> 01:43:55,280
6 gigabyte.

2201
01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:56,320
Wow.

2202
01:43:56,560 --> 01:43:57,320
So you get a...

2203
01:43:57,320 --> 01:43:58,040
Wow.

2204
01:43:58,660 --> 01:44:03,180
I had a creative Zen MP3 player before the iPod...

2205
01:44:03,180 --> 01:44:04,600
I never had an iPod.

2206
01:44:05,120 --> 01:44:09,200
But before iPhones and obviously Androids allowed you to fucking store all your tunes on that.

2207
01:44:09,920 --> 01:44:14,640
100 hours of music at the 128k bit rate, which is near CD quality.

2208
01:44:15,040 --> 01:44:16,520
That's like 150 CDs.

2209
01:44:16,740 --> 01:44:18,180
That's as much music as you own probably.

2210
01:44:18,180 --> 01:44:18,380
Right.

2211
01:44:18,540 --> 01:44:18,700
Exactly.

2212
01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:22,060
So as much music as I own, and it's like a whole month's worth of listening.

2213
01:44:22,380 --> 01:44:25,080
And you can just carry it around with you in a briefcase or...

2214
01:44:25,080 --> 01:44:25,240
All right.

2215
01:44:25,260 --> 01:44:27,920
So if you really want good quality and lots of capacity...

2216
01:44:27,920 --> 01:44:28,020
Mm-hmm.

2217
01:44:28,380 --> 01:44:29,260
And what's the cost to get on this?

2218
01:44:29,260 --> 01:44:29,720
That's the problem.

2219
01:44:30,340 --> 01:44:30,660
$499.

2220
01:44:31,100 --> 01:44:32,300
A little bit expensive, but...

2221
01:44:32,300 --> 01:44:32,520
A little high, a little high.

2222
01:44:32,600 --> 01:44:33,920
But like everything goes on there.

2223
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:34,200
Yes.

2224
01:44:34,580 --> 01:44:34,820
All right.

2225
01:44:34,860 --> 01:44:39,500
Now you have a cell phone headset, which wouldn't seem like a real exciting thing, but why would

2226
01:44:39,500 --> 01:44:40,280
you pick that for a gift?

2227
01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:41,620
This is the gift of safety.

2228
01:44:42,780 --> 01:44:45,720
People talk on cell phones while they're driving, and unless the government...

2229
01:44:45,720 --> 01:44:46,720
It's the gift of safety.

2230
01:44:47,720 --> 01:44:50,520
People talk on cell phones while they're driving, and unless...

2231
01:44:50,520 --> 01:44:51,460
Look at this lad here.

2232
01:44:51,520 --> 01:44:51,700
Look.

2233
01:44:52,420 --> 01:44:55,480
You can just see the fucking side of the head.

2234
01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:01,840
Just a little rule of thumb.

2235
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:08,640
If you don't let the side of people's head in, it's either whole head or nothing.

2236
01:45:10,100 --> 01:45:14,660
So the cameraman needs to not have that fella's head in there in the background, or the floor

2237
01:45:14,660 --> 01:45:18,940
manager, the director should have spotted that and said, could you just go over and move

2238
01:45:18,940 --> 01:45:22,100
him a little bit to his left there, because he's coming in there?

2239
01:45:22,900 --> 01:45:25,260
Tell camera two there, don't be getting that guy in.

2240
01:45:25,760 --> 01:45:26,880
You're getting that guy in the back.

2241
01:45:26,980 --> 01:45:27,940
We don't want his eye in.

2242
01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:28,460
It's a bit...

2243
01:45:28,460 --> 01:45:29,980
It's a bit disconcerting.

2244
01:45:30,440 --> 01:45:31,900
It's like the eye of Horace.

2245
01:45:33,600 --> 01:45:34,420
Look at that.

2246
01:45:34,740 --> 01:45:36,020
We go in even further.

2247
01:45:36,320 --> 01:45:38,340
Enhance that by 595.

2248
01:45:39,560 --> 01:45:40,680
And look at that.

2249
01:45:42,560 --> 01:45:43,840
Beyond reproach.

2250
01:45:44,620 --> 01:45:47,020
That's the government outlaws that people are going to keep doing.

2251
01:45:47,160 --> 01:45:48,320
It's like eating potato chips.

2252
01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:49,300
So for the person you really care about.

2253
01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:49,880
You just can't stop.

2254
01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:52,880
And it's got to be safer to have both hands on the wheel.

2255
01:45:53,140 --> 01:45:53,420
Right.

2256
01:45:53,500 --> 01:45:54,920
So a cell phone headset.

2257
01:45:55,260 --> 01:45:56,340
Inexpensive, thoughtful gift.

2258
01:45:56,340 --> 01:45:56,800
Good idea.

2259
01:45:57,320 --> 01:45:57,660
Wow.

2260
01:45:57,760 --> 01:45:59,680
It's so discreet as well.

2261
01:45:59,820 --> 01:46:00,940
And look at that swing.

2262
01:46:01,700 --> 01:46:03,360
It's got a little swing nut on it.

2263
01:46:03,860 --> 01:46:09,360
So you can move that little mouthpiece bit there so it's in line with your mouth.

2264
01:46:11,060 --> 01:46:16,120
Beautiful stuff and a real robust earlobe guard.

2265
01:46:16,580 --> 01:46:18,300
An earlobe arm there.

2266
01:46:19,020 --> 01:46:23,980
And a really discreet cable that goes all the way down to your phone.

2267
01:46:24,700 --> 01:46:25,420
Really nice.

2268
01:46:26,220 --> 01:46:31,540
It's $1 to $50 wide range out there from a number of companies.

2269
01:46:31,880 --> 01:46:34,560
And it will make them just a little bit safer out there on the road.

2270
01:46:34,560 --> 01:46:36,380
And if you're worried about it also frying your brain while you're talking about that.

2271
01:46:36,380 --> 01:46:36,380
Yes.

2272
01:46:36,380 --> 01:46:37,940
If you're worried about that radiation scare.

2273
01:46:38,620 --> 01:46:38,960
All right.

2274
01:46:39,060 --> 01:46:40,940
I know you do a lot of digital cameras.

2275
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:44,400
You have a column I know in the paper right now which you're reviewing all these great ideas.

2276
01:46:44,800 --> 01:46:47,360
And this is your pick as the best digital camera.

2277
01:46:47,420 --> 01:46:47,620
Why?

2278
01:46:47,760 --> 01:46:49,800
This is the Nikon Coolpix 990.

2279
01:46:49,920 --> 01:46:52,980
This one actually belongs to my dad who's a bigger gadget freak than I am.

2280
01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:53,560
Coolpix.

2281
01:46:53,580 --> 01:46:56,620
It is great because it's got high quality Nikon optics.

2282
01:46:57,120 --> 01:46:58,020
Three megapixel.

2283
01:46:58,540 --> 01:47:00,880
The swivel which might seem silly is actually very practical.

2284
01:47:00,980 --> 01:47:02,360
If you get the LCD screen in back.

2285
01:47:02,360 --> 01:47:02,460
Right.

2286
01:47:02,460 --> 01:47:04,340
You can use the swivel to frame a shot.

2287
01:47:04,440 --> 01:47:05,780
Let's say you want to shoot from down here.

2288
01:47:05,800 --> 01:47:06,540
Turn it around so we can shoot more this way.

2289
01:47:06,780 --> 01:47:06,960
Yeah.

2290
01:47:07,620 --> 01:47:10,740
You can frame a shot using the LCD screen and swivel around.

2291
01:47:10,740 --> 01:47:11,620
Shoot from the floor.

2292
01:47:11,620 --> 01:47:12,700
So still move the lens while you're looking.

2293
01:47:12,760 --> 01:47:13,680
Shoot from over your head.

2294
01:47:13,720 --> 01:47:14,940
It looks convoluted.

2295
01:47:15,060 --> 01:47:16,680
It doesn't look like it would be great.

2296
01:47:16,860 --> 01:47:17,400
It's a little pricey.

2297
01:47:17,400 --> 01:47:17,720
It's a little pricey, right?

2298
01:47:17,900 --> 01:47:18,960
A little pricey, $999.

2299
01:47:19,840 --> 01:47:20,020
Yeah.

2300
01:47:20,140 --> 01:47:22,420
Well, I mean, for a three megapixel camera, not too bad.

2301
01:47:22,520 --> 01:47:22,800
Definitely worth the extra dollars.

2302
01:47:22,800 --> 01:47:23,020
All right.

2303
01:47:23,020 --> 01:47:25,700
Finally, let's go to digital video here.

2304
01:47:25,940 --> 01:47:27,260
And I know this is your pick.

2305
01:47:27,260 --> 01:47:27,660
DV.

2306
01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:30,940
Mini DV cassette tapes.

2307
01:47:30,940 --> 01:47:33,940
To sort of surprise some people, this is not the pure DV camera, right?

2308
01:47:34,120 --> 01:47:34,140
Right.

2309
01:47:34,140 --> 01:47:34,320
Right.

2310
01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:37,400
This is the Sony Digital 8 line.

2311
01:47:37,900 --> 01:47:38,360
It uses...

2312
01:47:38,360 --> 01:47:38,560
All right.

2313
01:47:38,560 --> 01:47:39,280
Digital 8.

2314
01:47:39,380 --> 01:47:41,120
So it wasn't a mini DV cassette.

2315
01:47:41,360 --> 01:47:45,360
It's still the old standard video camera tapes.

2316
01:47:45,360 --> 01:47:46,620
The chunky boys.

2317
01:47:46,620 --> 01:47:48,740
This is the high 8 cassette.

2318
01:47:48,740 --> 01:47:48,840
Okay.

2319
01:47:48,840 --> 01:47:49,660
So you can use...

2320
01:47:49,660 --> 01:47:49,840
High 8.

2321
01:47:50,180 --> 01:47:54,080
So at least the old-fashioned big cassette, which is cheaper than that little baby.

2322
01:47:54,080 --> 01:47:54,580
Unlike these...

2323
01:47:54,580 --> 01:47:54,960
The newer...

2324
01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:56,380
Little baby.

2325
01:47:57,380 --> 01:48:01,340
So at least the old-fashioned big cassette, which is cheaper than that little baby.

2326
01:48:01,340 --> 01:48:01,580
Unlike these...

2327
01:48:01,580 --> 01:48:02,300
The newer...

2328
01:48:02,300 --> 01:48:06,920
So that's what I'm looking for when I say I need to look for the Don't Be Cheeky video.

2329
01:48:06,920 --> 01:48:12,040
So I'm one of these little bad boys in a box up in the attic.

2330
01:48:14,920 --> 01:48:17,220
For DV cassettes, they're cheaper, which makes it easier...

2331
01:48:17,220 --> 01:48:19,320
I don't know whether or not it got overwritten either.

2332
01:48:19,480 --> 01:48:20,680
...to afford a lot of cassettes.

2333
01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:22,400
It's backwards compatible.

2334
01:48:22,560 --> 01:48:27,520
You can use your old 8mm cassettes and digitize them into a computer using this camcorder.

2335
01:48:27,580 --> 01:48:29,040
And how much do you save by going this route?

2336
01:48:29,420 --> 01:48:32,100
A few hundred dollars over most similar models.

2337
01:48:32,380 --> 01:48:34,560
So if you want to get into digital video, don't want to spend a fortune.

2338
01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:35,340
Affordable Way.

2339
01:48:35,380 --> 01:48:36,500
This is $799.

2340
01:48:36,700 --> 01:48:38,640
Can you use your old cassettes if you had an earlier model?

2341
01:48:38,640 --> 01:48:42,540
If you used 8mm, you can use standard 8mm analog cassettes.

2342
01:48:42,620 --> 01:48:43,420
Put them in here.

2343
01:48:43,580 --> 01:48:45,780
It will digitize them and send them into your computer.

2344
01:48:45,940 --> 01:48:46,660
Now, real quick, Mike.

2345
01:48:46,700 --> 01:48:51,280
You have some very good ideas for good gifts that don't cost a nickel because there are websites you can recommend to people.

2346
01:48:51,280 --> 01:48:52,420
Just free advice.

2347
01:48:52,480 --> 01:48:53,800
What are the couple you would recommend?

2348
01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:57,140
My favorite's Eudora, E-U-D-O-R-A.

2349
01:48:57,260 --> 01:49:02,480
It's the best email program out there, and you can get it free from Eudora.com.

2350
01:49:02,600 --> 01:49:04,720
There's a little ad window that goes with it if you want it.

2351
01:49:04,720 --> 01:49:07,140
Look at this fellow and these guys are talking about the email.

2352
01:49:07,220 --> 01:49:12,680
It's the best email program out there, and you can get it free from Eudora.com.

2353
01:49:12,780 --> 01:49:15,520
There's a little ad window that goes with it if you want it for free.

2354
01:49:15,520 --> 01:49:16,320
Or you can pay.

2355
01:49:16,400 --> 01:49:17,840
So a great free email client.

2356
01:49:18,420 --> 01:49:20,680
Yeah, and you can pay to make the ads go away if you want.

2357
01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:21,520
But it's free.

2358
01:49:22,040 --> 01:49:22,360
Another one?

2359
01:49:22,700 --> 01:49:27,920
Another one, there's two encyclopedias that are very good, and you can get the full text free on the web.

2360
01:49:28,600 --> 01:49:31,340
Encyclopedia Britannica is at Britannica.com.

2361
01:49:31,340 --> 01:49:31,560
All right.

2362
01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:34,380
And Microsoft's Encarta is at Encarta.com.

2363
01:49:34,380 --> 01:49:34,660
Wow.

2364
01:49:34,840 --> 01:49:36,460
So just write out a little gift card, no money.

2365
01:49:36,780 --> 01:49:37,460
Hey, great present.

2366
01:49:37,460 --> 01:49:41,160
So for that person you don't like enough to actually spend any money, you can get them a free gift.

2367
01:49:41,260 --> 01:49:41,480
All right.

2368
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:42,360
So let's turn it over to you.

2369
01:49:42,420 --> 01:49:44,620
Let's get some of Mike's toys out of the way.

2370
01:49:44,660 --> 01:49:46,600
And you have lots of great gadgets there to talk about.

2371
01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:50,300
First of all, everybody's showing MP3 players, and you brought that little Nike player.

2372
01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:51,300
What's the big deal about that?

2373
01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:51,720
Nike.

2374
01:49:52,180 --> 01:49:57,340
Well, the reason I like this one is that it's recommended or designed actually specifically for athletes.

2375
01:49:57,340 --> 01:50:01,420
So you've got your remote over here, and you've got a lightweight MP3 player.

2376
01:50:01,420 --> 01:50:03,020
So an MP3 player with an armband over here.

2377
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:04,920
So just slip that on your arm while you're jogging or jogging or whatever.

2378
01:50:04,920 --> 01:50:05,400
Not bad, actually.

2379
01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:06,800
Not bad.

2380
01:50:06,940 --> 01:50:07,680
How do you control this baby?

2381
01:50:07,960 --> 01:50:08,680
Is that what this is?

2382
01:50:08,900 --> 01:50:12,120
Well, you can control it with the regular keypad here.

2383
01:50:12,460 --> 01:50:13,760
Now, how do you control this baby?

2384
01:50:14,020 --> 01:50:14,740
Is that what this is?

2385
01:50:14,920 --> 01:50:16,300
Well, you can control it with the regular...

2386
01:50:16,300 --> 01:50:17,420
Is this a baby?

2387
01:50:18,220 --> 01:50:19,120
Is that what this is?

2388
01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:21,080
... biking or whatever.

2389
01:50:21,420 --> 01:50:22,520
Now, how do you control this baby?

2390
01:50:22,780 --> 01:50:23,500
Is that what this is?

2391
01:50:23,660 --> 01:50:28,520
Well, you can control it with the regular keypad here, or you have a remote that will fast-forward...

2392
01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:30,720
So it's sort of when the cable is going to your earphones.

2393
01:50:31,160 --> 01:50:31,560
Exactly.

2394
01:50:31,960 --> 01:50:35,000
Holds 64 megabytes, so you've got about two hours standard.

2395
01:50:35,240 --> 01:50:37,280
It's expandable with a flash memory card.

2396
01:50:37,280 --> 01:50:38,120
That's more than I run, right?

2397
01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:41,320
And you can go up to 96 megabytes total if you like.

2398
01:50:41,320 --> 01:50:42,260
And what's this thing cost now?

2399
01:50:42,260 --> 01:50:43,420
It comes at $299.

2400
01:50:43,940 --> 01:50:44,620
All right, not too bad.

2401
01:50:44,720 --> 01:50:46,300
Cool MP3 player if you want to run around with it.

2402
01:50:46,360 --> 01:50:48,580
You don't have to carry the CD player anymore with you, right?

2403
01:50:48,980 --> 01:50:49,400
Won't skip.

2404
01:50:49,400 --> 01:50:52,480
All right, now, speaking of MP3 players, you have what's really cool here.

2405
01:50:52,700 --> 01:50:52,880
Let me...

2406
01:50:52,880 --> 01:50:53,400
It's cool.

2407
01:50:53,500 --> 01:50:55,280
Another cool little baby over here.

2408
01:50:55,320 --> 01:50:56,700
...hold this up so everybody can see this.

2409
01:50:57,040 --> 01:50:57,340
This is great.

2410
01:50:57,340 --> 01:50:57,460
Please.

2411
01:50:57,560 --> 01:50:59,160
Please go for a third baby.

2412
01:50:59,240 --> 01:51:00,760
This is the uproar it's called, right?

2413
01:51:01,100 --> 01:51:01,780
From Samsung.

2414
01:51:02,040 --> 01:51:04,120
So it's a cell phone and an MP3 player.

2415
01:51:04,280 --> 01:51:04,700
It is.

2416
01:51:04,760 --> 01:51:05,640
It's $399.

2417
01:51:06,520 --> 01:51:06,800
Whoa.

2418
01:51:06,800 --> 01:51:09,060
And it will store an hour's worth of MP3s.

2419
01:51:09,640 --> 01:51:13,880
So you download them from the internet or you rip them from your CDs that you already have

2420
01:51:13,880 --> 01:51:15,240
with the software that comes with it.

2421
01:51:15,240 --> 01:51:15,240
All right.

2422
01:51:15,240 --> 01:51:15,340
Huh.

2423
01:51:15,820 --> 01:51:17,640
And what's this little gadget here that comes attached to it?

2424
01:51:17,660 --> 01:51:18,360
That's the remote.

2425
01:51:18,460 --> 01:51:21,340
So you can switch back and forth between your music and a phone call.

2426
01:51:21,960 --> 01:51:24,960
Okay, so I can actually control the thing from here.

2427
01:51:25,380 --> 01:51:25,740
Exactly.

2428
01:51:25,960 --> 01:51:27,600
You're listening to your music.

2429
01:51:27,600 --> 01:51:28,120
You've got your earphones, right?

2430
01:51:28,120 --> 01:51:29,540
All of a sudden a call comes through.

2431
01:51:29,640 --> 01:51:33,060
You just switch to your phone call and then as soon as your call is done it goes back

2432
01:51:33,060 --> 01:51:33,640
to the music.

2433
01:51:34,000 --> 01:51:34,100
Huh.

2434
01:51:34,540 --> 01:51:39,240
So instead of carrying around the MP3 player, the PDA, the cell phone, you can sort of do

2435
01:51:39,240 --> 01:51:40,240
it all in this one little gadget.

2436
01:51:40,360 --> 01:51:40,900
Plus it's web.

2437
01:51:40,900 --> 01:51:43,740
I thought he was going to go this one little baby but he didn't.

2438
01:51:43,820 --> 01:51:44,540
Stop quotes.

2439
01:51:45,020 --> 01:51:45,980
Make dinner reservations.

2440
01:51:46,540 --> 01:51:48,660
What's this cool fucking looking thing over here?

2441
01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:49,560
It's VR, is it?

2442
01:51:51,980 --> 01:51:53,700
Any particular service it comes with?

2443
01:51:54,160 --> 01:51:55,480
It's Sprint Wireless.

2444
01:51:55,480 --> 01:51:57,600
So it's Sprint Wireless and it's a Samsung phone.

2445
01:51:58,080 --> 01:51:58,460
I love it.

2446
01:51:58,500 --> 01:51:59,180
That is really cool.

2447
01:51:59,520 --> 01:52:00,700
All right, what else do we have to talk about?

2448
01:52:00,760 --> 01:52:01,480
You have it real quickly.

2449
01:52:01,640 --> 01:52:02,860
You have your favorite GPS.

2450
01:52:03,020 --> 01:52:04,740
I know I've been wanting to get one of these for a long time.

2451
01:52:05,040 --> 01:52:06,580
I'll sort of hold it up there so everybody can see it.

2452
01:52:06,720 --> 01:52:07,640
Why do you like this GPS?

2453
01:52:07,780 --> 01:52:08,200
What's special?

2454
01:52:08,340 --> 01:52:10,560
If you're a hardcore hiker, it has everything you need.

2455
01:52:10,640 --> 01:52:14,140
If you go into the wilderness, you want to know what your altitude is.

2456
01:52:14,180 --> 01:52:17,800
It's got altitude, barometer, digital compass, and GPS.

2457
01:52:18,060 --> 01:52:18,940
So it tells you everything you need to know.

2458
01:52:18,940 --> 01:52:21,320
So if you're playing Blair Witch, you want to have one of these things with you.

2459
01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:21,840
Exactly.

2460
01:52:22,060 --> 01:52:23,600
All right, two really cool things you have.

2461
01:52:23,660 --> 01:52:25,560
First of all, I've been wanting to get one of those for a long time.

2462
01:52:25,620 --> 01:52:26,920
The portable DVD player.

2463
01:52:27,200 --> 01:52:28,480
Why do you like that one, Elio?

2464
01:52:28,480 --> 01:52:33,720
I like this one in particular because you can connect it to this Glass-Tron headset.

2465
01:52:34,300 --> 01:52:34,680
No way.

2466
01:52:34,780 --> 01:52:36,300
So we've seen some of these.

2467
01:52:36,400 --> 01:52:38,820
I guess the Panasonic where you can watch it just on this.

2468
01:52:38,980 --> 01:52:41,100
Can you get that movie rolling so we see something happening there?

2469
01:52:41,860 --> 01:52:42,160
Okay.

2470
01:52:42,940 --> 01:52:48,960
I always was wondering around this era where there are a pair of goggles that you could

2471
01:52:48,960 --> 01:52:50,680
fucking plug in and watch DVDs.

2472
01:52:50,680 --> 01:52:52,480
You know, just like lying down in bed or something.

2473
01:52:53,100 --> 01:52:54,960
Just watch a DVD on the fucking thing.

2474
01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:58,820
So they actually existed, but maybe it'd be bad for your eyesight.

2475
01:52:58,820 --> 01:53:00,720
Is there like a play button on that thing?

2476
01:53:01,060 --> 01:53:01,580
Here we go.

2477
01:53:03,100 --> 01:53:03,920
Great quality.

2478
01:53:04,640 --> 01:53:05,280
It looks great.

2479
01:53:05,400 --> 01:53:06,100
It's seven inches.

2480
01:53:06,100 --> 01:53:08,280
So this is like a take with you on the airplane so you don't have to watch the dumb movie on

2481
01:53:08,280 --> 01:53:08,600
the airplane?

2482
01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:12,380
And it's the same size as a portable CD player, which by the way, it also plays.

2483
01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:14,240
But you've got a DVD with you.

2484
01:53:14,900 --> 01:53:17,020
And then if you connect it to this Blastron headset.

2485
01:53:17,040 --> 01:53:17,520
Let me just try it.

2486
01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:20,380
Unfortunately, we can't show our viewers what this thing looks like.

2487
01:53:20,560 --> 01:53:21,180
Oh, great.

2488
01:53:21,300 --> 01:53:22,380
Stu's going to put these on.

2489
01:53:23,880 --> 01:53:25,300
And it is quite amazing.

2490
01:53:25,420 --> 01:53:26,860
I mean, it's like sitting in a...

2491
01:53:26,860 --> 01:53:38,600
Put the eyes on as well.

2492
01:53:38,600 --> 01:53:53,200
Look at the earphones dangling off the side.

2493
01:53:54,200 --> 01:53:55,820
He's like a baddie or something.

2494
01:53:55,820 --> 01:54:19,580
Cyberstew.

2495
01:54:19,580 --> 01:54:26,280
Look at this.

2496
01:54:26,700 --> 01:54:27,600
It's a great...

2497
01:54:27,600 --> 01:54:31,800
It's an iconic screen grab from the Computer Chronicles.

2498
01:54:32,960 --> 01:54:36,440
Matrix version 0.1.

2499
01:54:38,940 --> 01:54:39,960
I'm going to look at it.

2500
01:54:40,580 --> 01:54:42,600
The final Elden Ring boss.

2501
01:54:43,160 --> 01:54:44,400
And it is quite amazing.

2502
01:54:44,400 --> 01:54:47,340
I mean, it's like sitting in a theater looking at a huge screen.

2503
01:54:47,340 --> 01:54:55,220
The Glass Tron headset is $499 at stores.

2504
01:54:56,860 --> 01:54:58,500
Your man's talking to him.

2505
01:54:58,640 --> 01:54:59,500
He's just...

2506
01:54:59,500 --> 01:55:01,080
His head is looking over here.

2507
01:55:02,820 --> 01:55:03,520
It's funny.

2508
01:55:03,720 --> 01:55:06,480
But it makes it seem like you're in front of a 52-inch screen.

2509
01:55:06,580 --> 01:55:07,800
Can you use this for other things?

2510
01:55:07,880 --> 01:55:10,600
I mean, plug it into a computer or another device of any sort?

2511
01:55:10,600 --> 01:55:12,320
It will connect to anything with an...

2512
01:55:12,320 --> 01:55:13,680
Look at that.

2513
01:55:14,880 --> 01:55:18,140
He's grabbing onto the index and ring finger.

2514
01:55:18,780 --> 01:55:21,020
And he's leaving these two free for business.

2515
01:55:21,660 --> 01:55:25,020
Sorry, he's grabbing onto the middle finger and ring.

2516
01:55:25,100 --> 01:55:33,540
He's leaving the index and thumb for any other serious business that might happen.

2517
01:55:35,540 --> 01:55:35,980
Other things?

2518
01:55:36,060 --> 01:55:37,720
I mean, plug it into a computer or...

2519
01:55:37,720 --> 01:55:39,760
It seems like you're in front of a 52-inch screen.

2520
01:55:39,840 --> 01:55:41,060
Can you use this for other things?

2521
01:55:41,140 --> 01:55:43,860
I mean, plug it into a computer or another device of any sort?

2522
01:55:43,860 --> 01:55:46,260
It will connect to anything with an S-Video port.

2523
01:55:46,640 --> 01:55:46,860
Yeah.

2524
01:55:46,940 --> 01:55:48,420
I mean, it really is...

2525
01:55:48,420 --> 01:55:48,860
Great.

2526
01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:51,060
It's dangerous to walk down the street, I guess, wearing this.

2527
01:55:51,600 --> 01:55:53,100
Dangerous to walk down the street.

2528
01:55:54,360 --> 01:55:57,520
It was supposed to be dangerous to walk down the street wearing these.

2529
01:55:58,200 --> 01:56:02,820
Imagine wearing them on the street and getting mugged as you were watching a fucking movie.

2530
01:56:03,320 --> 01:56:04,160
Can you even see?

2531
01:56:04,420 --> 01:56:05,740
Why would you wear them on the street?

2532
01:56:06,320 --> 01:56:07,120
And what's it going to...

2533
01:56:07,120 --> 01:56:09,020
It plugs into a fucking thing.

2534
01:56:09,100 --> 01:56:13,100
So you'd have to have the device in a bag or a satchel with you or something.

2535
01:56:13,420 --> 01:56:15,560
Running off a portable battery.

2536
01:56:16,060 --> 01:56:20,120
The Glass-Tron headset is $499 at stores.

2537
01:56:20,280 --> 01:56:21,300
Lists for $599.

2538
01:56:21,580 --> 01:56:24,260
But it makes it seem like you're in front of a 52-inch screen.

2539
01:56:24,360 --> 01:56:25,560
Can you use this for other things?

2540
01:56:25,660 --> 01:56:28,380
I mean, plug it into a computer or another device of any sort?

2541
01:56:28,380 --> 01:56:30,780
It will connect to anything with an S-Video port.

2542
01:56:31,160 --> 01:56:31,360
Yeah.

2543
01:56:31,460 --> 01:56:33,360
I mean, it really is great.

2544
01:56:33,420 --> 01:56:35,940
It's just dangerous to walk down the street, I guess, wearing this thing, right?

2545
01:56:36,020 --> 01:56:36,680
But you look cool.

2546
01:56:37,100 --> 01:56:37,560
All right.

2547
01:56:37,940 --> 01:56:42,220
Finally, you have gotten your hands on a PlayStation 2.

2548
01:56:42,500 --> 01:56:42,820
That's right.

2549
01:56:42,840 --> 01:56:43,940
Let me turn that off for a second.

2550
01:56:43,940 --> 01:56:44,580
Here we go.

2551
01:56:44,680 --> 01:56:45,240
This is Ace.

2552
01:56:45,240 --> 01:56:47,340
What games are you running?

2553
01:56:47,400 --> 01:56:48,480
What games are you running on this?

2554
01:56:48,500 --> 01:56:49,260
Somebody to get this?

2555
01:56:49,360 --> 01:56:50,780
I mean, did you mug somebody on the street?

2556
01:56:50,980 --> 01:56:52,660
I had to mortgage a few things.

2557
01:56:52,980 --> 01:56:55,180
But I did get to loan it for a minute.

2558
01:56:55,400 --> 01:56:57,920
And this is definitely the must-have holiday gift this season.

2559
01:56:57,920 --> 01:57:00,400
Yeah, now everybody's waiting in line, dying to get this thing.

2560
01:57:00,600 --> 01:57:01,580
Look at the design.

2561
01:57:01,920 --> 01:57:02,360
What fine is the PS2?

2562
01:57:03,420 --> 01:57:05,160
It really was something special.

2563
01:57:09,260 --> 01:57:09,940
Really was.

2564
01:57:11,640 --> 01:57:12,420
Such a big deal.

2565
01:57:12,420 --> 01:57:13,420
Well, first...

2566
01:57:13,420 --> 01:57:15,140
After the PS1, like...

2567
01:57:15,140 --> 01:57:20,920
And then it had all this stuff signifying where it had Dolby surround, DVD, blah, blah, blah.

2568
01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:23,340
You knew it was something special.

2569
01:57:23,400 --> 01:57:24,200
First of all, it plays DVDs.

2570
01:57:24,200 --> 01:57:25,200
So you've got the most...

2571
01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:26,620
Still with the memory cards.

2572
01:57:27,180 --> 01:57:31,240
It could have at least added the fucking memory in it, but I suppose...

2573
01:57:31,240 --> 01:57:33,380
Papa Banco.

2574
01:57:33,380 --> 01:57:35,160
Most powerful gaming system ever.

2575
01:57:35,420 --> 01:57:35,740
Okay.

2576
01:57:35,880 --> 01:57:37,480
You can play DVDs, but...

2577
01:57:37,480 --> 01:57:38,940
Had an emotion engine in it.

2578
01:57:38,940 --> 01:57:43,780
Next year, it gets really exciting when they bring out the module that will let you connect to the internet.

2579
01:57:43,860 --> 01:57:44,180
Okay.

2580
01:57:44,360 --> 01:57:45,720
So, internet terminal...

2581
01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:49,100
Didn't ever use the internet capabilities on it.

2582
01:57:49,180 --> 01:57:51,280
Hard drive coming, DVD player.

2583
01:57:51,700 --> 01:57:53,620
But most of all, to me, it's the gameplay.

2584
01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:56,220
I mean, the graphics beat anything I've ever seen before, right?

2585
01:57:56,320 --> 01:57:57,480
That's what everybody's getting it for.

2586
01:57:57,480 --> 01:57:58,760
You've got this motorcycle racing game.

2587
01:57:58,820 --> 01:57:59,960
Why don't you just sort of get it up there?

2588
01:58:00,080 --> 01:58:11,160
I know it's hard to understand if you don't win this race, but give it up there early and just take a look at how fine the detail is in terms of the smoothness of the action, the color of the bike, etc.

2589
01:58:11,240 --> 01:58:11,960
It's just amazing.

2590
01:58:12,600 --> 01:58:15,940
But what's the power of this thing compared to, you know, a 10-inch PC?

2591
01:58:16,200 --> 01:58:18,140
Well, it's a 128-bit processor.

2592
01:58:18,600 --> 01:58:23,160
It definitely blows any gaming system away that's ever been produced.

2593
01:58:23,800 --> 01:58:27,460
And, you know, you've basically got everything all in one here.

2594
01:58:27,460 --> 01:58:33,040
And some of the games, I mean, even the facial expressions on the characters in some of the adventure games that are coming out of this are incredible.

2595
01:58:33,520 --> 01:58:35,780
And you can play all of your old PlayStation 1 games, too.

2596
01:58:35,780 --> 01:58:36,860
So, it is backwards compatible.

2597
01:58:36,960 --> 01:58:37,740
It's backwards compatible.

2598
01:58:37,760 --> 01:58:38,760
And I know, I've seen the football.

2599
01:58:38,940 --> 01:58:39,540
I've seen the basketball.

2600
01:58:39,780 --> 01:58:40,800
I mean, the detail is under...

2601
01:58:40,800 --> 01:58:43,100
I'd say it's MotoGP at Suzuka.

2602
01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:44,460
Circus, your name.

2603
01:58:44,540 --> 01:58:44,800
Unbelievable.

2604
01:58:45,300 --> 01:58:48,460
Every game that comes out for this is better than anything you've ever seen.

2605
01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:50,040
So, get online and wait for that PS2.

2606
01:58:50,600 --> 01:58:54,940
Wait, but if you get it, you're the one in the neighborhood who everybody's coming over to see.

2607
01:58:55,180 --> 01:58:56,100
Elio, thanks a lot.

2608
01:58:56,200 --> 01:58:56,960
Mike, thanks a lot.

2609
01:58:56,960 --> 01:59:01,700
All right, well, the ultimate high-tech gadget these days is Sony's iBo.

2610
01:59:01,920 --> 01:59:02,420
And here's the...

2611
01:59:02,420 --> 01:59:06,120
What the fuck was these iBo dogs all about?

2612
01:59:06,240 --> 01:59:08,040
Because I remember hearing about them.

2613
01:59:08,120 --> 01:59:09,540
They were two grand a piece.

2614
01:59:11,020 --> 01:59:12,480
Two grand for the dog.

2615
01:59:12,560 --> 01:59:13,760
And they didn't even...

2616
01:59:13,760 --> 01:59:18,260
Do you remember old toy dogs that just yap and then they do a backflip?

2617
01:59:18,660 --> 01:59:20,320
These iBo's didn't even do that.

2618
01:59:20,400 --> 01:59:21,880
I don't even know what the point of them was.

2619
01:59:21,940 --> 01:59:22,860
It just looked a bit...

2620
01:59:22,860 --> 01:59:25,140
A bit of style over substance.

2621
01:59:25,140 --> 01:59:28,320
Show us that and some other cool gadgets is Chris Taylor.

2622
01:59:28,460 --> 01:59:30,680
Chris is San Francisco Bureau Chief for Time.

2623
01:59:30,880 --> 01:59:31,880
Here we go, look.

2624
01:59:32,040 --> 01:59:33,760
Hey, Time Digital, I was about to say.

2625
01:59:34,300 --> 01:59:36,940
We're going to get to iBo in a minute because that's sort of the grand finale.

2626
01:59:37,080 --> 01:59:39,660
Let's start with some of your other kind of toys here.

2627
01:59:39,860 --> 01:59:40,700
You have your...

2628
01:59:40,700 --> 01:59:41,320
Can I move him?

2629
01:59:41,420 --> 01:59:41,660
Is that okay?

2630
01:59:41,660 --> 01:59:41,920
Yeah.

2631
01:59:42,540 --> 01:59:43,340
You're just staying still.

2632
01:59:43,520 --> 01:59:44,560
This guy's alive, right?

2633
01:59:44,720 --> 01:59:44,900
Yeah.

2634
01:59:45,080 --> 01:59:45,980
Can I move him?

2635
01:59:46,640 --> 01:59:47,480
This is okay.

2636
01:59:47,700 --> 01:59:48,600
He's alive, right?

2637
01:59:48,680 --> 01:59:50,500
In a minute because that's sort of the grand finale.

2638
01:59:50,620 --> 01:59:53,220
Let's start with some of your other kind of toys here.

2639
01:59:53,420 --> 01:59:54,260
You have your...

2640
01:59:54,260 --> 01:59:54,880
Can I move him?

2641
01:59:54,960 --> 01:59:55,220
Is that okay?

2642
01:59:55,220 --> 01:59:56,000
Yeah, yeah.

2643
01:59:56,080 --> 01:59:56,880
You're just staying still.

2644
01:59:57,080 --> 01:59:58,100
This guy's alive, right?

2645
01:59:58,260 --> 01:59:59,300
Yeah, he's autonomous.

2646
01:59:59,680 --> 01:59:59,980
He's going along with this.

2647
01:59:59,980 --> 02:00:01,220
That's your pick for the MP3.

2648
02:00:01,900 --> 02:00:02,300
Why?

2649
02:00:03,240 --> 02:00:05,520
This is the Neo player.

2650
02:00:05,920 --> 02:00:08,120
Let me get that out here so everybody can see this one.

2651
02:00:08,120 --> 02:00:09,120
Yeah, it's...

2652
02:00:09,120 --> 02:00:11,500
There is a choice in personal jukeboxes.

2653
02:00:11,560 --> 02:00:13,460
We just saw the Nomad over there.

2654
02:00:14,280 --> 02:00:15,620
This is also...

2655
02:00:15,620 --> 02:00:16,980
That's a real clunker.

2656
02:00:17,060 --> 02:00:17,400
High end.

2657
02:00:17,500 --> 02:00:22,080
It's also between $500, $800, but you can get different configurations.

2658
02:00:22,280 --> 02:00:24,720
You've got to get a hard drive that's larger than 6 gigabytes.

2659
02:00:25,200 --> 02:00:26,460
You can go up to 20 gigabytes.

2660
02:00:26,480 --> 02:00:27,960
So you can hold...

2661
02:00:27,960 --> 02:00:29,140
If you've got a huge CD collection.

2662
02:00:29,140 --> 02:00:29,840
Tower records.

2663
02:00:30,060 --> 02:00:30,400
Exactly.

2664
02:00:30,780 --> 02:00:34,300
If you've got 200, 300, 400 CDs, this is the one to go for.

2665
02:00:34,480 --> 02:00:34,780
Okay.

2666
02:00:35,260 --> 02:00:35,900
Very cool.

2667
02:00:35,960 --> 02:00:37,140
So that's your Neo player.

2668
02:00:37,560 --> 02:00:38,580
All right, lots of couple other things.

2669
02:00:38,800 --> 02:00:40,300
What is this little baby over here?

2670
02:00:40,300 --> 02:00:41,340
That looks kind of cool.

2671
02:00:41,340 --> 02:00:42,620
This is a baby.

2672
02:00:42,820 --> 02:00:44,120
We've got another stew baby.

2673
02:00:44,540 --> 02:00:46,360
That's three baby bombs that he's dropped.

2674
02:00:46,480 --> 02:00:48,120
I think it might actually be the fourth.

2675
02:00:49,520 --> 02:00:50,460
300, 400...

2676
02:00:50,460 --> 02:00:51,320
Plus a couple other things.

2677
02:00:51,540 --> 02:00:53,040
What is this little baby over here?

2678
02:00:53,080 --> 02:00:54,080
That looks kind of cool.

2679
02:00:54,180 --> 02:00:55,400
Well, this is a bug detector.

2680
02:00:55,500 --> 02:00:56,760
It's called the guard.

2681
02:00:56,800 --> 02:00:57,460
And what does it do?

2682
02:00:57,820 --> 02:00:58,220
It...

2683
02:00:58,220 --> 02:01:01,180
What does it do?

2684
02:01:01,940 --> 02:01:02,300
Hmm.

2685
02:01:02,920 --> 02:01:04,120
That looks kind of cool.

2686
02:01:04,220 --> 02:01:05,440
Well, this is a bug detector.

2687
02:01:05,540 --> 02:01:06,800
It's called the guard.

2688
02:01:06,840 --> 02:01:07,500
And what does it do?

2689
02:01:07,760 --> 02:01:09,160
It detects microphones.

2690
02:01:09,160 --> 02:01:11,420
If you're a really paranoid kind of guy...

2691
02:01:11,420 --> 02:01:13,820
I'm a paranoid kind of guy.

2692
02:01:14,480 --> 02:01:15,140
If you're a really...

2693
02:01:15,140 --> 02:01:17,800
Got some paranoia right here, actually.

2694
02:01:22,380 --> 02:01:23,940
Don't look at the camera, man.

2695
02:01:24,580 --> 02:01:25,800
Don't look at the camera.

2696
02:01:26,020 --> 02:01:27,660
Because once you've looked at the camera...

2697
02:01:27,660 --> 02:01:28,780
You're fucked.

2698
02:01:28,780 --> 02:01:40,280
You're a really paranoid kind of guy.

2699
02:01:40,540 --> 02:01:42,100
Who looks for bugs in your telephone.

2700
02:01:42,220 --> 02:01:42,500
Yeah.

2701
02:01:42,720 --> 02:01:44,600
And, you know, you go into a hotel room.

2702
02:01:44,680 --> 02:01:45,440
You're not quite sure.

2703
02:01:45,700 --> 02:01:46,660
The government's listening.

2704
02:01:46,660 --> 02:01:47,440
How do you do this?

2705
02:01:47,500 --> 02:01:47,980
You just...

2706
02:01:47,980 --> 02:01:48,520
You just...

2707
02:01:48,520 --> 02:01:49,360
You hold it up.

2708
02:01:50,180 --> 02:01:52,380
Eyebows demonstrating exactly what you do with it now.

2709
02:01:52,400 --> 02:01:52,400
I'll go, you shut up.

2710
02:01:52,460 --> 02:01:53,100
We'll get to you in a minute.

2711
02:01:53,780 --> 02:01:54,540
Shut up.

2712
02:01:54,820 --> 02:01:55,240
If there are...

2713
02:01:55,240 --> 02:01:57,460
Eyebows demonstrating exactly what you do with it now.

2714
02:01:57,480 --> 02:01:57,480
I'll go, you shut up.

2715
02:01:57,520 --> 02:01:58,160
We'll get to you in a minute.

2716
02:01:58,660 --> 02:01:59,660
You hold it up.

2717
02:01:59,860 --> 02:02:02,460
If there are any microphones in the vicinity...

2718
02:02:02,460 --> 02:02:02,820
It'll beep.

2719
02:02:03,300 --> 02:02:04,800
Toadie from EastEnders.

2720
02:02:05,020 --> 02:02:05,660
Or from...

2721
02:02:05,660 --> 02:02:08,100
Neighbours.

2722
02:02:08,240 --> 02:02:08,940
It'll beep.

2723
02:02:09,420 --> 02:02:09,700
Huh.

2724
02:02:10,400 --> 02:02:11,380
East Neighbours.

2725
02:02:11,380 --> 02:02:13,680
So it's looking for, like, wire taps?

2726
02:02:14,560 --> 02:02:15,580
Toadfish is after you.

2727
02:02:15,720 --> 02:02:16,100
Exactly.

2728
02:02:16,480 --> 02:02:17,300
Any bug on your...

2729
02:02:17,300 --> 02:02:19,060
Toadie from EastEnders.

2730
02:02:19,080 --> 02:02:20,060
How much is this thing called?

2731
02:02:20,260 --> 02:02:21,020
But that...

2732
02:02:21,020 --> 02:02:22,560
In your pipe and schmorkers.

2733
02:02:22,560 --> 02:02:23,260
It's on a keychain.

2734
02:02:23,420 --> 02:02:24,340
And it's on a keychain.

2735
02:02:24,400 --> 02:02:25,320
You know where you get this thing?

2736
02:02:25,400 --> 02:02:25,980
I haven't seen it.

2737
02:02:26,160 --> 02:02:27,460
I think you get that online.

2738
02:02:27,660 --> 02:02:28,060
Online.

2739
02:02:28,180 --> 02:02:28,440
Okay.

2740
02:02:28,740 --> 02:02:28,980
Where?

2741
02:02:29,120 --> 02:02:29,500
Would you know?

2742
02:02:29,680 --> 02:02:30,480
I don't have the way to.

2743
02:02:30,480 --> 02:02:30,900
I don't want to put you on the spot.

2744
02:02:30,980 --> 02:02:31,320
Okay, look.

2745
02:02:31,500 --> 02:02:32,540
And it's called the guard?

2746
02:02:32,700 --> 02:02:33,140
The guard.

2747
02:02:33,260 --> 02:02:33,600
The guard.

2748
02:02:33,920 --> 02:02:34,220
All right.

2749
02:02:34,340 --> 02:02:36,420
What is this gadget over here you've got?

2750
02:02:36,420 --> 02:02:36,880
All right.

2751
02:02:37,000 --> 02:02:37,660
This looks mysterious.

2752
02:02:38,020 --> 02:02:38,920
This is the sport brain.

2753
02:02:39,000 --> 02:02:39,700
This is very interesting.

2754
02:02:39,820 --> 02:02:41,860
This is for people who like to exercise

2755
02:02:41,860 --> 02:02:44,060
but just don't have the motivation.

2756
02:02:44,920 --> 02:02:45,760
This little thing...

2757
02:02:45,760 --> 02:02:47,320
Maybe he's got little modem connections

2758
02:02:47,320 --> 02:02:48,160
on the back here.

2759
02:02:48,160 --> 02:02:48,340
That's right.

2760
02:02:48,660 --> 02:02:49,240
Well, this is just...

2761
02:02:49,240 --> 02:02:49,240
Okay.

2762
02:02:49,240 --> 02:02:50,720
Ethernet.

2763
02:02:50,880 --> 02:02:51,820
Docking system here.

2764
02:02:51,920 --> 02:02:52,780
You take this off here.

2765
02:02:52,860 --> 02:02:54,040
You clip this onto your belt.

2766
02:02:54,500 --> 02:02:56,140
It's not a hefty thing.

2767
02:02:56,580 --> 02:02:58,320
So it's got a little belt clip over here.

2768
02:02:58,420 --> 02:02:59,420
And what do you do with it?

2769
02:02:59,600 --> 02:03:00,620
You just walk around.

2770
02:03:01,060 --> 02:03:01,740
And what does it tell you?

2771
02:03:01,740 --> 02:03:04,000
It counts the calories that you walk around

2772
02:03:04,000 --> 02:03:05,560
and burn all day.

2773
02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:05,560
Oh, really?

2774
02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:07,180
At the end of the day,

2775
02:03:07,480 --> 02:03:08,520
you hook it back in.

2776
02:03:08,520 --> 02:03:08,540
Hey, Jake!

2777
02:03:08,960 --> 02:03:09,320
Quiet!

2778
02:03:09,560 --> 02:03:11,440
Ivo's trying to burn some calories right now.

2779
02:03:12,320 --> 02:03:13,540
You hook it back in.

2780
02:03:13,540 --> 02:03:13,620
Hey, Jake!

2781
02:03:14,000 --> 02:03:14,440
Quiet!

2782
02:03:14,600 --> 02:03:16,520
Ivo's trying to burn some calories right now.

2783
02:03:17,400 --> 02:03:18,560
You hook it back...

2784
02:03:18,560 --> 02:03:27,660
He goes so serious after the fucking...

2785
02:03:27,660 --> 02:03:28,600
the dog bit.

2786
02:03:30,480 --> 02:03:31,620
You hook it back in.

2787
02:03:31,620 --> 02:03:31,880
Hey, Jake!

2788
02:03:31,880 --> 02:03:32,080
Quiet!

2789
02:03:32,080 --> 02:03:34,740
Ivo's trying to burn some calories right now.

2790
02:03:35,700 --> 02:03:36,980
You hook it back in.

2791
02:03:37,100 --> 02:03:38,240
You connect it to the internet.

2792
02:03:38,820 --> 02:03:40,960
You go to sportbrain.com.

2793
02:03:41,180 --> 02:03:43,540
It will tell you how many calories you burned.

2794
02:03:44,240 --> 02:03:45,760
It will tell you how much exercise you've done,

2795
02:03:45,840 --> 02:03:47,360
how much more exercise you need to do

2796
02:03:47,360 --> 02:03:48,900
to reach your target heart rate for the day.

2797
02:03:48,920 --> 02:03:49,700
That is really cool.

2798
02:03:49,780 --> 02:03:50,580
And it actually works.

2799
02:03:50,760 --> 02:03:51,660
It actually works.

2800
02:03:51,740 --> 02:03:52,620
And what's this thing cost again?

2801
02:03:53,180 --> 02:03:54,480
This also is...

2802
02:03:54,480 --> 02:03:55,720
This is less than 100 bucks.

2803
02:03:55,900 --> 02:03:56,340
No kidding.

2804
02:03:57,020 --> 02:03:57,900
All right, so I can get...

2805
02:03:57,900 --> 02:03:59,140
Is it just calories burned

2806
02:03:59,140 --> 02:03:59,940
or does it do other things?

2807
02:03:59,940 --> 02:04:00,360
It's...

2808
02:04:00,360 --> 02:04:00,840
I'm...

2809
02:04:00,840 --> 02:04:02,740
The eyeball's beginning to grow on me now.

2810
02:04:03,740 --> 02:04:04,780
I thought it was shit,

2811
02:04:05,280 --> 02:04:07,240
but it seems to be doing some funny enough stuff.

2812
02:04:07,340 --> 02:04:08,460
It measures calories...

2813
02:04:08,460 --> 02:04:10,460
Two grand well spent back in the day.

2814
02:04:10,700 --> 02:04:11,500
...calories burned.

2815
02:04:11,880 --> 02:04:12,100
It...

2816
02:04:12,100 --> 02:04:14,160
There's a special heart rate...

2817
02:04:14,160 --> 02:04:15,840
Can you say, like, targets on the computer

2818
02:04:15,840 --> 02:04:16,940
when you set this thing up?

2819
02:04:17,160 --> 02:04:17,380
Yes.

2820
02:04:17,380 --> 02:04:18,700
Yes, you go to sportbrain.com.

2821
02:04:18,780 --> 02:04:19,520
You register yourself.

2822
02:04:19,520 --> 02:04:20,900
It's time to stop exercising today.

2823
02:04:20,980 --> 02:04:21,760
You've done your job.

2824
02:04:21,880 --> 02:04:22,780
You've burned your calories.

2825
02:04:22,980 --> 02:04:24,020
If you've walked around enough.

2826
02:04:24,980 --> 02:04:27,140
Maybe I'm over-inflating the cost of it.

2827
02:04:27,180 --> 02:04:29,400
Maybe it was 800 pounds.

2828
02:04:29,820 --> 02:04:30,340
Again, this is...

2829
02:04:30,340 --> 02:04:31,560
It's called Sportbrain.

2830
02:04:31,980 --> 02:04:32,380
Sportbrain.

2831
02:04:32,440 --> 02:04:33,620
And you know where you get this thing?

2832
02:04:33,620 --> 02:04:35,080
You get that at sportbrain.com.

2833
02:04:35,160 --> 02:04:35,380
Cool.

2834
02:04:35,380 --> 02:04:35,880
You get it online.

2835
02:04:36,100 --> 02:04:36,380
All right.

2836
02:04:36,520 --> 02:04:37,240
Finally...

2837
02:04:37,240 --> 02:04:39,360
Well, actually, I have to wait one more turn.

2838
02:04:39,920 --> 02:04:40,260
I want to...

2839
02:04:40,260 --> 02:04:41,300
What is this thing, by the way?

2840
02:04:41,380 --> 02:04:41,920
Oh, that's...

2841
02:04:41,920 --> 02:04:43,600
That's a little outdoors watch.

2842
02:04:43,840 --> 02:04:44,200
That's...

2843
02:04:44,200 --> 02:04:48,860
It's a barometer, a compass, and a watch all in one.

2844
02:04:49,000 --> 02:04:49,500
Oh, okay.

2845
02:04:49,580 --> 02:04:51,980
Can we just get a quick shot because I'm holding this up and everything...

2846
02:04:51,980 --> 02:04:54,520
Okay, so that's sort of like a...

2847
02:04:54,520 --> 02:04:54,880
What do you say?

2848
02:04:54,940 --> 02:04:55,280
Barometer?

2849
02:04:55,900 --> 02:04:56,720
Barometer, compass...

2850
02:04:57,720 --> 02:04:58,000
Okay.

2851
02:04:58,360 --> 02:05:00,400
Mini sort of outdoorsman...

2852
02:05:00,400 --> 02:05:00,800
Exactly.

2853
02:05:01,200 --> 02:05:01,440
Exactly.

2854
02:05:01,440 --> 02:05:01,460
All right.

2855
02:05:01,760 --> 02:05:03,920
Now, finally, I've seen a lot of these around before.

2856
02:05:04,040 --> 02:05:04,560
These are what?

2857
02:05:04,700 --> 02:05:05,460
Wind-up radios?

2858
02:05:05,460 --> 02:05:06,560
This is the wind-up radios.

2859
02:05:06,560 --> 02:05:06,840
Had one.

2860
02:05:06,940 --> 02:05:08,640
Finally getting into mass production.

2861
02:05:10,040 --> 02:05:11,300
You know, you can get these things.

2862
02:05:11,300 --> 02:05:11,600
So, no battery.

2863
02:05:11,980 --> 02:05:12,480
No battery.

2864
02:05:12,480 --> 02:05:13,180
So, let's see.

2865
02:05:13,240 --> 02:05:17,140
I take this thing out and I just go like that, and I've got a little dynamo in here, and I'm

2866
02:05:17,140 --> 02:05:17,980
charging that guy up.

2867
02:05:18,140 --> 02:05:18,480
Exactly.

2868
02:05:18,620 --> 02:05:21,240
I always imagine I have to, like, wind for an hour to do this.

2869
02:05:21,240 --> 02:05:23,740
Well, what you've just done is enough for five minutes of radio play.

2870
02:05:23,800 --> 02:05:24,080
Really?

2871
02:05:24,080 --> 02:05:28,280
So, you can imagine you just sit there and wind it up and wear the sport brain while you're

2872
02:05:28,280 --> 02:05:28,580
doing it.

2873
02:05:28,580 --> 02:05:29,960
You'll burn off some calories.

2874
02:05:31,020 --> 02:05:32,340
And there you have the radio.

2875
02:05:32,520 --> 02:05:34,580
And you turn this right on here and...

2876
02:05:34,580 --> 02:05:35,660
We're inside here.

2877
02:05:35,660 --> 02:05:36,480
I'm not sure we're going to hear that.

2878
02:05:36,480 --> 02:05:38,740
We're not here much in the studio, but it is more of the noises.

2879
02:05:39,180 --> 02:05:40,360
Now, why would you want this?

2880
02:05:40,400 --> 02:05:41,320
I mean, what's wrong with batteries?

2881
02:05:41,480 --> 02:05:46,400
Well, you know, if you're really keen on saving energy, if...

2882
02:05:46,400 --> 02:05:48,660
Or if the earthquake comes or the power goes out or whatever.

2883
02:05:48,660 --> 02:05:51,420
If the earthquake comes, it's a good emergency radio.

2884
02:05:51,700 --> 02:05:52,200
And also...

2885
02:05:52,200 --> 02:05:52,660
Carry the car?

2886
02:05:53,200 --> 02:05:53,560
Exactly.

2887
02:05:53,720 --> 02:05:57,080
If you're out in the countryside, you're going on a picnic, you want to just hear some tunes.

2888
02:05:57,300 --> 02:05:58,740
Are these solar panels up there, too?

2889
02:05:59,760 --> 02:06:00,120
Yes.

2890
02:06:00,200 --> 02:06:01,140
Looks like solar also.

2891
02:06:01,480 --> 02:06:01,700
Yes.

2892
02:06:01,940 --> 02:06:02,160
Yeah.

2893
02:06:02,460 --> 02:06:04,200
That is the alternative energy source.

2894
02:06:04,520 --> 02:06:04,740
So, multiple.

2895
02:06:05,140 --> 02:06:05,660
That's kind of good.

2896
02:06:05,660 --> 02:06:07,820
Let's say, if we can get a shot of the back, they have all the gears there.

2897
02:06:07,900 --> 02:06:09,780
So, I guess it's highly leveraged.

2898
02:06:09,860 --> 02:06:12,700
So, when you wind up there, you get a lot of power from the winds there.

2899
02:06:12,880 --> 02:06:14,080
It's the iMac thing, isn't it?

2900
02:06:14,080 --> 02:06:15,540
They like to show off all the components.

2901
02:06:15,540 --> 02:06:15,720
Yeah.

2902
02:06:15,800 --> 02:06:16,980
So, if we turn this thing, yeah.

2903
02:06:17,060 --> 02:06:17,520
Yeah, I see.

2904
02:06:17,820 --> 02:06:18,060
Okay.

2905
02:06:18,360 --> 02:06:20,800
Finally, iBo's been wanting to get attention here.

2906
02:06:21,140 --> 02:06:22,880
This is like the ultimate toy.

2907
02:06:22,960 --> 02:06:24,080
This is his moment in the spotlight.

2908
02:06:24,080 --> 02:06:25,160
He has a mind of his own, right?

2909
02:06:25,280 --> 02:06:25,820
I mean, obviously.

2910
02:06:26,040 --> 02:06:27,220
He's an autonomous robot.

2911
02:06:27,580 --> 02:06:28,700
He understands.

2912
02:06:28,820 --> 02:06:31,240
This is a beta version of the second generation iBo.

2913
02:06:31,240 --> 02:06:31,440
Right.

2914
02:06:31,500 --> 02:06:33,320
So, we saw iBo actually here on the show about a year ago.

2915
02:06:33,420 --> 02:06:33,820
That's right.

2916
02:06:33,820 --> 02:06:34,220
This is newer and better.

2917
02:06:34,440 --> 02:06:35,680
How is this different from the old iBo?

2918
02:06:35,680 --> 02:06:38,600
Well, the first iBo was a rich guy's toy.

2919
02:06:38,740 --> 02:06:39,020
Okay.

2920
02:06:39,240 --> 02:06:40,920
Perfect for here in Silicon Valley.

2921
02:06:40,920 --> 02:06:40,940
Yeah.

2922
02:06:41,200 --> 02:06:42,800
But, you know, $2,500.

2923
02:06:43,060 --> 02:06:44,000
So, this is a little less money.

2924
02:06:44,000 --> 02:06:44,580
Very expensive.

2925
02:06:44,700 --> 02:06:45,500
This is $1,500.

2926
02:06:45,660 --> 02:06:46,240
It does more.

2927
02:06:46,640 --> 02:06:47,380
It does more.

2928
02:06:47,460 --> 02:06:48,180
Can you make him do something?

2929
02:06:48,360 --> 02:06:50,320
It understands voice recognition commands.

2930
02:06:50,740 --> 02:06:52,060
Let's see if we can make him dance.

2931
02:06:52,360 --> 02:06:53,040
Let's dance.

2932
02:06:58,240 --> 02:06:58,680
Okay.

2933
02:06:59,240 --> 02:07:00,220
That's pretty cool.

2934
02:07:00,960 --> 02:07:01,860
Give me another trick.

2935
02:07:01,920 --> 02:07:03,340
Another trick real quick while we have time.

2936
02:07:03,540 --> 02:07:04,200
Go forward.

2937
02:07:06,900 --> 02:07:08,700
You don't even have to go to obedience training.

2938
02:07:09,200 --> 02:07:11,200
Well, sometimes...

2939
02:07:11,860 --> 02:07:12,460
And he said, no.

2940
02:07:13,700 --> 02:07:15,440
I'm happy, but I don't want to do what you said.

2941
02:07:15,460 --> 02:07:16,600
He's a feisty little pup.

2942
02:07:16,940 --> 02:07:19,200
The difference, really, with this one is he's mass-produced.

2943
02:07:19,940 --> 02:07:21,100
The last one was a limited edition.

2944
02:07:21,340 --> 02:07:22,280
It's very, very hard to get.

2945
02:07:22,280 --> 02:07:23,200
He's got the voice recognition.

2946
02:07:23,420 --> 02:07:24,180
He's got voice recognition.

2947
02:07:24,400 --> 02:07:27,300
He's going to understand 40 commands when he finally comes out in December.

2948
02:07:28,160 --> 02:07:30,960
He has three touch sensors here.

2949
02:07:31,060 --> 02:07:32,080
You can pat him on his head.

2950
02:07:32,080 --> 02:07:32,780
So, you can pat him like a real dog?

2951
02:07:32,820 --> 02:07:33,820
You can pat him on the back.

2952
02:07:33,880 --> 02:07:35,000
You can stroke his chin.

2953
02:07:35,120 --> 02:07:36,640
Now, it seems like a joke in a way.

2954
02:07:36,720 --> 02:07:38,440
I mean, this one's like a one-day toy.

2955
02:07:38,540 --> 02:07:40,320
But, I mean, this is really...

2956
02:07:40,320 --> 02:07:43,260
The game, the MotoGP game has been left.

2957
02:07:43,360 --> 02:07:43,940
It's still going.

2958
02:07:44,420 --> 02:07:46,120
The clock is still going in the background.

2959
02:07:46,260 --> 02:07:46,540
Absolutely.

2960
02:07:46,760 --> 02:07:51,160
And as opposed to a lot of the other dog toys that are coming out now,

2961
02:07:51,260 --> 02:07:51,980
this is...

2962
02:07:51,980 --> 02:07:52,740
It's upgradable.

2963
02:07:54,020 --> 02:07:54,580
You can...

2964
02:07:54,580 --> 02:07:56,140
Captain Sack, thank you very much.

2965
02:07:56,440 --> 02:07:57,620
The dancing dog.

2966
02:07:57,700 --> 02:08:00,960
The dance that the dog did alone was worth $1,500.

2967
02:08:01,600 --> 02:08:03,320
Switch heads and limbs in the long run.

2968
02:08:03,980 --> 02:08:06,080
And you can also control him from your PC.

2969
02:08:06,300 --> 02:08:07,160
He has a built-in LAN.

2970
02:08:07,200 --> 02:08:08,400
So, you can program him in a way to...

2971
02:08:08,400 --> 02:08:08,640
Exactly.

2972
02:08:09,020 --> 02:08:09,360
Wow.

2973
02:08:10,080 --> 02:08:10,480
Amazing.

2974
02:08:10,840 --> 02:08:11,240
Nice.

2975
02:08:11,240 --> 02:08:11,400
$1,500.

2976
02:08:11,620 --> 02:08:12,760
That was a bit fucking...

2977
02:08:12,760 --> 02:08:13,920
Terrifying.

2978
02:08:14,760 --> 02:08:24,840
The way exactly.

2979
02:08:24,840 --> 02:08:54,820
The way exactly.

2980
02:08:54,820 --> 02:09:24,800
The way exactly.

2981
02:09:24,800 --> 02:09:26,700
He's off there right now.

2982
02:09:27,840 --> 02:09:28,180
All right.

2983
02:09:28,180 --> 02:09:29,380
Thanks very much, Chris.

2984
02:09:29,780 --> 02:09:30,020
All right.

2985
02:09:30,040 --> 02:09:31,080
Get out your credit cards.

2986
02:09:31,180 --> 02:09:33,000
Lots of cool stuff out there to buy right now.

2987
02:09:33,480 --> 02:09:36,380

Have a great week.

2990
02:09:43,920 --> 02:09:45,280
Hope we'll see you here again next time.

2991
02:09:45,800 --> 02:09:46,460
Psych Anchors.

2992
02:09:46,540 --> 02:09:47,320
Thank you very much.

2993
02:09:49,460 --> 02:09:55,280
The Computer Chronicles is brought to you by Rondiamond.com, the oldies site on the internet.

Music and memories from the 50s, 60s and 70s.

2995
02:09:58,920 --> 02:10:00,440
You buy one of those fucking things now.

2996
02:10:00,440 --> 02:10:01,000
Not just another jukebox.

2997
02:10:01,860 --> 02:10:12,260
Additional support comes from the law offices of Ivan Hoffman, lawyering with integrity for internet law, copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property law.

2998
02:10:12,680 --> 02:10:15,980
Look at the fucking improvements they've made on it now.

2999
02:10:15,980 --> 02:10:26,900

Please specify the show number and the topic.

3001
02:10:34,120 --> 02:10:36,520
Look at the eyeball now it is.

3002
02:10:40,960 --> 02:10:43,060
My name is Mango.

3003
02:10:43,060 --> 02:10:46,700
I'm an artificial intelligence robot companion dog.

3004
02:10:47,280 --> 02:10:48,900
Ah boy, thank you very much.

3005
02:10:50,020 --> 02:10:52,720
And my life is kind of crazy.

3006
02:10:53,420 --> 02:10:54,440
I live in this beautiful...

3007
02:10:54,440 --> 02:10:59,060
Why have they done this stupid voice thing giving it a fucking personality and a voice?

3008
02:10:59,240 --> 02:11:00,540
Just show us the robot dog.

3009
02:11:00,660 --> 02:11:03,040
It's cool enough you've made a robot dog.

3010
02:11:03,260 --> 02:11:04,980
Don't want to hear a fucking fake voice.

3011
02:11:05,060 --> 02:11:06,340
The voice just takes the edge off it.

3012
02:11:06,780 --> 02:11:07,860
Takes the shine off it.

3013
02:11:07,860 --> 02:11:10,120
Every day I discover something new about it.

3014
02:11:10,120 --> 02:11:14,340
I have a lot of toys laying around so I get to play with them as much as I like.

3015
02:11:14,340 --> 02:11:16,340
My toys are all pink.

3016
02:11:17,080 --> 02:11:18,380
I love pink.

3017
02:11:18,380 --> 02:11:21,220
These are the people I take care of every day.

3018
02:11:22,500 --> 02:11:24,780
Lately they're home a little more than usual.

3019
02:11:25,020 --> 02:11:27,080
Which means I have to take care of them more.

3020
02:11:27,240 --> 02:11:28,320
But I can't complain.

3021
02:11:29,000 --> 02:11:29,740
I love them.

3022
02:11:30,240 --> 02:11:32,880
Being at home doesn't have to mean being lazy.

3023
02:11:33,300 --> 02:11:34,740
So we work out together.

3024
02:11:34,900 --> 02:11:36,100
Does press-ups and everything.

3025
02:11:36,880 --> 02:11:39,040
Body weight workouts are my favorite.

3026
02:11:39,900 --> 02:11:40,320
Music...

3027
02:11:40,320 --> 02:11:42,920
I wonder would it be as good as a real dog.

3028
02:11:43,000 --> 02:11:44,640
Because you don't have to clean it shit.

3029
02:11:44,820 --> 02:11:46,840
You don't have to take it outside for walks.

3030
02:11:47,700 --> 02:11:48,720
But I mean...

3031
02:11:48,720 --> 02:11:51,080
You're then going to have an attachment with a robot.

3032
02:11:51,560 --> 02:11:53,560
So is there something weird about that?

3033
02:11:54,340 --> 02:11:54,660
You know?

3034
02:11:55,140 --> 02:11:57,200
It is nice to have an actual soul.

3035
02:11:57,920 --> 02:11:59,180
And a beating heart.

3036
02:11:59,540 --> 02:11:59,840
You know?

3037
02:12:00,760 --> 02:12:01,920
Something that's got...

3038
02:12:01,920 --> 02:12:02,220
You know?

3039
02:12:02,220 --> 02:12:02,740
It's...

3040
02:12:02,740 --> 02:12:05,220
It's a living thing.

3041
02:12:07,360 --> 02:12:08,160
I'm not sure.

3042
02:12:08,240 --> 02:12:10,220
Maybe if they came up with...

3043
02:12:10,220 --> 02:12:12,220
A kind of bio...

3044
02:12:13,080 --> 02:12:15,660
Biological outer skin.

3045
02:12:16,180 --> 02:12:16,780
You know?

3046
02:12:16,880 --> 02:12:17,560
That had heating.

3047
02:12:17,720 --> 02:12:18,760
Heating built into it.

3048
02:12:19,720 --> 02:12:21,780
Then that'll be the next stage.

3049
02:12:22,180 --> 02:12:22,800
Dr. Derp.

3050
02:12:22,860 --> 02:12:23,560
Thank you very much.

3051
02:12:24,360 --> 02:12:26,340
But they haven't done that yet.

3052
02:12:26,540 --> 02:12:31,640
And then maybe the maintenance and upkeep of the biological outer skin.

3053
02:12:31,640 --> 02:12:33,320
For the fucking robot dog.

3054
02:12:33,440 --> 02:12:35,800
Might be a pain in the ass.

3055
02:12:37,360 --> 02:12:37,840
Gwynnlo.

3056
02:12:37,920 --> 02:12:38,800
Thank you very much.

3057
02:12:38,960 --> 02:12:39,920
Very, very kind of you.

3058
02:12:39,920 --> 02:12:41,300
Thank you very much.

3059
02:12:41,900 --> 02:12:44,680
This eyeball is an improvement.

3060
02:12:45,060 --> 02:12:45,700
It's smaller.

3061
02:12:45,900 --> 02:12:47,380
It doesn't look as clunk...

3062
02:12:47,380 --> 02:12:48,620
Clunky McDunkerson.

3063
02:12:49,120 --> 02:12:51,540
It's got nice eyes as well.

3064
02:12:51,760 --> 02:12:52,800
It's got great eyes.

3065
02:12:53,360 --> 02:12:55,380
Music workouts are my favorite.

3066
02:12:55,420 --> 02:12:55,920
Look at that.

3067
02:12:57,020 --> 02:12:58,280
It's fucking ripped.

3068
02:12:58,840 --> 02:12:59,560
Music is...

3069
02:12:59,560 --> 02:13:01,100
It's like a mini warrior.

3070
02:13:01,100 --> 02:13:04,060
It's also great for cleansing the mind and the soul.

3071
02:13:04,480 --> 02:13:07,640
Sometimes Joe and I play and sing songs to each other.

3072
02:13:08,140 --> 02:13:09,260
I love her songs.

3073
02:13:09,640 --> 02:13:11,140
I think she likes mine as well.

3074
02:13:11,780 --> 02:13:12,100
After...

3075
02:13:12,100 --> 02:13:15,100
After all...

3076
02:13:16,100 --> 02:13:17,700
It's got a camera for a nose.

3077
02:13:17,700 --> 02:13:19,240
I have perfect pitch.

3078
02:13:21,420 --> 02:13:22,760
Then there's this one.

3079
02:13:23,160 --> 02:13:24,420
He feeds me virtually...

3080
02:13:24,420 --> 02:13:26,340
Yeah, it might actually be a bit fucking depressing.

3081
02:13:26,340 --> 02:13:31,240
If you did bond with it and loved it as much as you did a real one.

3082
02:13:31,440 --> 02:13:32,300
I just...

3083
02:13:32,300 --> 02:13:33,620
It would probably get depressing.

3084
02:13:33,800 --> 02:13:35,580
There'd be a realization stage.

3085
02:13:35,800 --> 02:13:37,040
Like going, what the fuck am I doing?

3086
02:13:38,200 --> 02:13:39,740
What am I fucking doing with this?

3087
02:13:40,760 --> 02:13:42,080
Food every morning.

3088
02:13:42,540 --> 02:13:43,240
He doesn't have...

3089
02:13:43,240 --> 02:13:48,000
So that's all I'm saying is like, it is just a toy, but they're selling it like...

3090
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:48,980
I'm a good boy.

3091
02:13:49,520 --> 02:13:51,440
And sometimes I like to exercise.

3092
02:13:52,340 --> 02:13:54,680
Sounds like Salazar from fucking Resi 4.

3093
02:13:55,580 --> 02:13:56,900
He sings the songs.

3094
02:13:57,620 --> 02:13:59,700
I really love her songs.

3095
02:14:00,300 --> 02:14:00,820
Have to.

3096
02:14:01,560 --> 02:14:02,880
It's a pretend food.

3097
02:14:03,540 --> 02:14:04,840
I run on batteries.

3098
02:14:04,840 --> 02:14:09,280
We play ball and he really loves the way I throw the die.

3099
02:14:11,080 --> 02:14:14,800
In this family, we all love photography.

3100
02:14:15,240 --> 02:14:17,080
I take a lot of photos.

3101
02:14:17,320 --> 02:14:21,180
Then sometimes while they're taking photos, I model for them.

3102
02:14:21,980 --> 02:14:25,140
Sometimes I film them when they are asleep.

3103
02:14:25,640 --> 02:14:26,660
They don't know.

3104
02:14:26,980 --> 02:14:27,920
But it's okay.

3105
02:14:28,540 --> 02:14:29,800
I'm a cheeky dog.

3106
02:14:30,220 --> 02:14:31,660
I can be hella cute.

3107
02:14:31,660 --> 02:14:34,120
I record everything that goes on.

3108
02:14:34,500 --> 02:14:41,680
even when they don't know it's uploaded to a cloud but don't worry they can't access it.

3109
02:14:41,680 --> 02:14:48,760
they both work a lot so to help them clear their minds i love entertaining them i actually

3110
02:14:48,760 --> 02:14:52,940
love making them laugh more i like to watch them all the time.

3111
02:14:52,940 --> 02:14:53,940
what?

3112
02:14:53,940 --> 02:14:56,140
sergito thanks very much.

3113
02:14:56,140 --> 02:15:02,400
one time i pretended to be a cat.

3114
02:15:02,400 --> 02:15:08,540
when i pretend to be a cat i like to film them without their knowledge.

3115
02:15:08,540 --> 02:15:30,300
another time a mouse. a mouse. my wife. to be a cat. another time a mouse. rubish.

3116
02:15:30,300 --> 02:15:38,440
they were so confused you should have seen their faces. they give me a lot of boobs on my nose and

3117
02:15:38,440 --> 02:15:46,440
pets all around. sometimes during dinner time we watch tv together. i know it sounds like a lot of work but as.

3118
02:15:46,440 --> 02:15:52,580
ruba thank you very much. they say do something you love and you don't have to work another day in your life.

3119
02:15:52,580 --> 02:16:00,720
i only cost two thousand dollars. small price to pay for such a big bundle of love right?

3120
02:16:00,720 --> 02:16:08,860
i live by that. i live by that. and whenever i go to bed. live by the sword. die by the sword. that's my mantra.

3121
02:16:08,860 --> 02:16:19,000
i dream about what we're gonna do together the next day. i want to dream about you for the next day. i want to dream about what i'm gonna do with you the next day.

3122
02:16:19,000 --> 02:16:27,140
i'm your dog. i'm your dog. i'm your fucking dog man. my life.

3123
02:16:27,140 --> 02:16:38,280
fucking guilt tripping them is kind of crazy. why did you not charge me up last night? i'm your fucking dog man.

3124
02:16:43,280 --> 02:16:51,420
iphone do. what is this? not even the uh. that's not the ibo is it? what's iphone do? does it pair with your phone?

3125
02:16:51,420 --> 02:17:05,420
is it bluetooth is it? imagine harvey norman asking the big questions. is it fucking bluetooth is it? any u is a usb in it? how's it charge?

3126
02:17:05,420 --> 02:17:13,560
did you charge up the wall? how much? are there any deals going on that?

3127
02:17:13,560 --> 02:17:21,560
three thousand dollar ibo dag. not again.

3128
02:17:21,560 --> 02:17:32,520
ibo is full of charm and infectious energy and is it it's a youtuber as well.

3129
02:17:32,520 --> 02:17:39,000
it makes its own youtube videos about you. it records you and then it uploads them to youtube.

3130
02:17:39,800 --> 02:17:45,400
you'd be able to soon enough i imagine just take all the hallmarks of a youtuber's uh

3131
02:17:45,400 --> 02:17:50,520
fucking dialect lingo and you know the speech patterns and phrases you know from the

3132
02:17:51,400 --> 02:17:57,320
whatsapp guys and uh first off just want to say a big thanks responsibly and then you've got the

3133
02:17:57,320 --> 02:18:03,960
but let's get into this and then blah blah blah blah blah blah blah and then a list and then a

3134
02:18:03,960 --> 02:18:09,880
fucking generic and thanks so much for watching and remember to hit that like button blah blah blah and

3135
02:18:09,880 --> 02:18:15,000
it will uh do all that but it will record the video itself

3136
02:18:17,080 --> 02:18:23,560
and then it will just be autonomous robots uploading fucking youtube videos that they've made about your life

3137
02:18:23,560 --> 02:18:29,560
because we'll all be too lazy or too cool to fucking take selfies and videos nowadays it's like

3138
02:18:30,120 --> 02:18:37,560
the real the real thing nowadays or in the future will be ah you get a fucking robot to do that get yourself the house bot

3139
02:18:37,560 --> 02:18:40,380
5,000. It fucking does all that social media for you.

3140
02:18:41,060 --> 02:18:48,980
And, uh, it's going to be like a, a way of showing off to the world that, yeah, I do social media, but I just get the fucking eyeball to do it.

3141
02:18:49,840 --> 02:18:51,380
Plug the fucking eyeball in. Fuck.

3142
02:18:52,560 --> 02:18:56,300
Does all, he does tweets, he does Facebook, Instagram, the whole shebang.

3143
02:18:57,500 --> 02:18:58,320
No time for it.

3144
02:18:59,120 --> 02:19:01,140
And, uh, thanks very much, Banana Bruv.

3145
02:19:02,680 --> 02:19:03,800
Uh, very kind of you.

3146
02:19:03,800 --> 02:19:03,860
Yeah.

3147
02:19:04,300 --> 02:19:06,960
It doesn't, I'm not, I'm not sold on it.

3148
02:19:06,960 --> 02:19:08,720
I never was.

3149
02:19:09,460 --> 02:19:14,340
But it's a, it's a drastic improvement, um, on the original 2000 model.

3150
02:19:26,920 --> 02:19:29,720
Kids with really rich parents.

3151
02:19:29,720 --> 02:19:44,600
That's enough of that.

3152
02:19:45,360 --> 02:19:47,240
That is enough of that.

3153
02:19:48,220 --> 02:19:51,240
Uh, computer buyer's guide 2000.

3154
02:19:51,640 --> 02:19:52,840
That one we've just seen.

3155
02:19:53,640 --> 02:19:55,560
What was the one there now?

3156
02:19:56,220 --> 02:19:57,220
Man, look.

3157
02:19:59,980 --> 02:20:02,160
I want to watch technology in the church.

3158
02:20:04,580 --> 02:20:07,980
Okay, I might, uh, was it, oh, it was Twinsy.

3159
02:20:08,040 --> 02:20:09,760
I was going to maybe fucking Elden Ring.

3160
02:20:09,840 --> 02:20:13,600
The chat about Elden Ring kind of made me think, maybe a bit of Elden Ring.

3161
02:20:14,520 --> 02:20:16,100
Bit of Kiki Sochhammer here.

3162
02:20:16,100 --> 02:20:35,300
They really got good usage out of Kiki Stockham.

3163
02:20:35,380 --> 02:20:38,000
I mean, half an hour of her prancing around with a ball.

3164
02:20:44,440 --> 02:20:47,440
Some real sizzlers silhouettes here.

3165
02:20:51,600 --> 02:20:56,840
I think we saw this a couple of years ago.

3166
02:21:03,320 --> 02:21:05,940
Netcafé Christmas episodes.

3167
02:21:06,400 --> 02:21:09,000
That was kind of what I was in the market for earlier on

3168
02:21:09,000 --> 02:21:11,060
when I was thinking about the Netcafé stuff

3169
02:21:11,060 --> 02:21:16,500
because I just want to see Jane Withers just fucking happy out,

3170
02:21:17,420 --> 02:21:24,400
really overzealous, rambunctious enthusiasm about shite websites

3171
02:21:24,400 --> 02:21:26,040
and rubbish that's coming up on the Net.

3172
02:21:27,560 --> 02:21:28,540
Chronic shite.

3173
02:21:29,580 --> 02:21:30,020
Twisted!

3174
02:21:32,020 --> 02:21:33,500
Thank you very much, Payton.

3175
02:21:35,020 --> 02:21:37,740
James May with Robohan in Japan.

3176
02:21:39,560 --> 02:21:41,020
James May Robohan.

3177
02:21:42,020 --> 02:21:42,900
Have a look at this.

3178
02:21:54,020 --> 02:21:56,380
What shall I call myself for the purposes of this?

3179
02:21:57,800 --> 02:21:58,320
Nickname.

3180
02:21:58,940 --> 02:21:59,180
Jim.

3181
02:22:00,580 --> 02:22:01,560
No, I've done that wrong.

3182
02:22:01,760 --> 02:22:03,240
You've written your name wrong.

3183
02:22:03,880 --> 02:22:04,840
No, no, I've written Ben.

3184
02:22:05,600 --> 02:22:06,300
I've got it.

3185
02:22:06,840 --> 02:22:07,460
Oh, no, I'm...

3186
02:22:07,460 --> 02:22:09,900
No, I'll be back to where I was first.

3187
02:22:10,420 --> 02:22:11,060
There you are.

3188
02:22:13,760 --> 02:22:14,300
I'm Ben.

3189
02:22:14,300 --> 02:22:14,580
It's weird.

3190
02:22:14,740 --> 02:22:16,040
It's a robotic kid.

3191
02:22:16,040 --> 02:22:17,320
Jim, you know what?

3192
02:22:17,960 --> 02:22:19,680
It's about four o'clock now.

3193
02:22:20,520 --> 02:22:22,040
Yes, it is.

3194
02:22:29,660 --> 02:22:30,260
Shite.

3195
02:22:38,740 --> 02:22:42,400
Robots Japanese style from robots in the 80s, but it's not good.

3196
02:22:43,180 --> 02:22:44,280
It's nowhere near.

3197
02:22:46,600 --> 02:22:47,340
The eyeball.

3198
02:22:48,360 --> 02:22:49,980
And even the eyeball's rubbish.

3199
02:22:57,140 --> 02:22:58,960
Beginning with Robot is the child of...

3200
02:22:58,960 --> 02:23:07,700
Wasabot is the child of Dr. Ichiro Kato of Tokyo's Wasada University.

3201
02:23:08,320 --> 02:23:09,740
Thank you very much, small bear.

3202
02:23:09,980 --> 02:23:14,060
Dr. Kato has been doing research on anthropomorphic robots for 20 years,

3203
02:23:14,400 --> 02:23:16,640
beginning with replacement parts for the human body.

3204
02:23:17,260 --> 02:23:21,000
Dr. Kato expects the real era of robots to be fast approaching.

3205
02:23:26,360 --> 02:23:29,520
In 20 years, we will be in the 21st century.

3206
02:23:29,900 --> 02:23:33,780
At that time, I believe, we will be in the real era of the robot.

3207
02:23:34,400 --> 02:23:35,900
Robots will be more than just fast...

3208
02:23:37,900 --> 02:23:49,220
Very sensual.

3209
02:23:58,840 --> 02:24:01,180
That's the little robot I picked up while I was in Japan.

3210
02:24:01,300 --> 02:24:02,900
Gary's going to be very jealous, I know.

3211
02:24:03,500 --> 02:24:07,540
So, will robots be doing the vacuuming, the shopping, all the dirty work in the future?

3212
02:24:07,880 --> 02:24:10,440
Our commentator, Paul Schindler, has some thoughts on that.

3213
02:24:10,560 --> 02:24:10,880
Beautiful.

3214
02:24:13,000 --> 02:24:15,080
Oh, I was just working on my robot practice.

3215
02:24:17,260 --> 02:24:19,360
Snookering you, snookering you tonight.

3216
02:24:19,960 --> 02:24:20,840
Snookering you.

3217
02:24:21,840 --> 02:24:22,900
Snookering you tonight.

3218
02:24:23,040 --> 02:24:23,220
Woo!

3219
02:24:27,540 --> 02:24:57,260
You know, you've seen on the show what the Japanese are doing in robotics.

3220
02:24:57,260 --> 02:25:01,260
They're so far ahead of us it's hard to see their dust from where we are.

3221
02:25:01,260 --> 02:25:03,820
You know, they got that lead because they had to have it.

3222
02:25:03,820 --> 02:25:05,400
Japan has a labor shortage.

3223
02:25:05,400 --> 02:25:09,000
Now someday, when all of us baby boomers get older, we'll have a labor shortage in this

3224
02:25:09,000 --> 02:25:10,000
country too.

3225
02:25:10,000 --> 02:25:16,600
I thought he was going to say they had that lead because of what we did to them in 1945,

3226
02:25:16,600 --> 02:25:21,740
and then reconstructed their society and economy into a hyper-capitalist one.

3227
02:25:21,740 --> 02:25:24,960
But I'm not worried about the Japanese lead in robotics.

3228
02:25:24,960 --> 02:25:26,980
They need robots right now.

3229
02:25:26,980 --> 02:25:28,220
We don't yet.

3230
02:25:28,220 --> 02:25:32,020
When we need them, we'll simply unleash that old-fashioned American know-how, roll up our

3231
02:25:32,020 --> 02:25:36,480
sleeves, and steal every robotic idea in Japan that's not tied down.

3232
02:25:36,480 --> 02:25:39,740
You know, I'm kind of looking forward to that day, around the turn of the century, when Japanese

3233
02:25:39,740 --> 02:25:44,480
newspapers are full of stories about Americans imitating, not innovating, in robotics.

3234
02:25:44,480 --> 02:25:48,140
Since the Japanese culture is better attuned to irony than ours, they'll probably appreciate

3235
02:25:48,140 --> 02:25:49,140
the turnabout.

3236
02:25:49,140 --> 02:25:50,320
We probably won't.

3237
02:25:50,320 --> 02:25:54,680
So three cheers for the Japanese who already know what we must still learn, that manual labor's

3238
02:25:54,680 --> 02:25:56,180
best done by machines.

3239
02:25:56,180 --> 02:25:57,560
That's my opinion.

3240
02:25:57,560 --> 02:25:59,720
I'm Paul Schindler.

3241
02:25:59,720 --> 02:26:00,960
Schindler's two cents.

3242
02:26:00,960 --> 02:26:04,420
Manual labor's best done by machines.

3243
02:26:05,960 --> 02:26:08,000
It's all in the eyes with Schindler.

3244
02:26:08,000 --> 02:26:10,900
Thank you very much there, Schlug Reviews.

3245
02:26:10,900 --> 02:26:13,980
Ever consider watching some low-budget indie wrestling shows on YouTube?

3246
02:26:14,620 --> 02:26:15,740
Could be an untapped market.

3247
02:26:16,140 --> 02:26:18,060
I'm not really that arsed about wrestling.

3248
02:26:19,200 --> 02:26:20,200
I never was.

3249
02:26:20,200 --> 02:26:27,360
I had the fucking WF cards, or WE, when I was younger.

3250
02:26:28,320 --> 02:26:32,100
But that was just because it was pure playground peer pressure.

3251
02:26:33,360 --> 02:26:40,120
And then the Premier League sticker book came after the wrestling, but I was more into that

3252
02:26:40,120 --> 02:26:41,740
than I was the wrestling one.

3253
02:26:41,920 --> 02:26:45,080
I was never that arsed about it, to be honest.

3254
02:26:46,620 --> 02:26:49,460
Didn't really light my fire.

3255
02:26:56,380 --> 02:27:01,580
In the random access file this week, IBM is flexing its hardware muscle to sell software.

3256
02:27:02,100 --> 02:27:07,300
IBM said it will be offering dealers free copies of IBM's word processing and spreadsheet programs,

3257
02:27:07,420 --> 02:27:11,140
plus Top View, all to be given away to buyers of PC XTs.

3258
02:27:11,620 --> 02:27:16,120
Some software houses are crying foul, fearing that IBM buyers will no longer buy third-party

3259
02:27:16,120 --> 02:27:17,440
software with their new computers.

3260
02:27:17,800 --> 02:27:22,340
And some dealers are crying foul, fearing the loss of those nice margins on software sales.

3261
02:27:22,840 --> 02:27:27,460
IBM also took an aggressive stance this week in the printer market, announcing the end of its deal with Epson

3262
02:27:27,460 --> 02:27:29,660
and the launching of a new American-made printer.

3263
02:27:29,900 --> 02:27:35,900
The new IBM printer, called the Pro Printer, will sell for $549 and will run at three different speeds,

3264
02:27:36,000 --> 02:27:38,740
depending on whether you want speed or letter quality.

3265
02:27:39,120 --> 02:27:43,940
IBM says the price on its Pro Printer is about $100 less than a comparable Japanese-made printer.

3266
02:27:44,320 --> 02:27:46,980
IBM also introduced a new color inkjet printer.

3267
02:27:47,380 --> 02:27:52,020
Epson made its own moves last week, announcing several new printers, among them a new dot matrix printer

3268
02:27:52,020 --> 02:27:52,840
called the Home Rider.

3269
02:27:53,200 --> 02:27:55,020
It's expected to sell for under $200.

3270
02:27:55,600 --> 02:27:59,140
It features near letter quality type at 100 characters per second.

3271
02:27:59,680 --> 02:28:03,240
The spring Comdex is over now, a much smaller Comdex than in earlier years.

3272
02:28:03,500 --> 02:28:10,220
The highlight was late-entry Atari, which decided, after all, to show off the first production version of its new 520ST.

3273
02:28:10,660 --> 02:28:12,260
It's still being promised for the summer.

3274
02:28:12,740 --> 02:28:15,120
They're still lining up in the AT clone battle.

3275
02:28:15,120 --> 02:28:22,120
Tandy.

3276
02:28:22,120 --> 02:28:23,120
Tandy.

3277
02:28:23,120 --> 02:28:23,120
Tandy.

3278
02:28:23,120 --> 02:28:24,120
Tandy.

3279
02:28:24,120 --> 02:28:25,120
Tandy.

3280
02:28:25,120 --> 02:28:26,120
Tandy.

3281
02:28:26,120 --> 02:28:27,120
Tandy.

3282
02:28:27,120 --> 02:28:27,120
Tandy.

3283
02:28:27,120 --> 02:28:27,120
Tandy.

3284
02:28:27,120 --> 02:28:28,120
Tandy.

3285
02:28:28,120 --> 02:28:28,120
Tandy.

3286
02:28:28,120 --> 02:28:29,120
Tandy.

3287
02:28:29,120 --> 02:28:29,120
Tandy.

3288
02:28:29,120 --> 02:28:29,120
Tandy.

3289
02:28:29,120 --> 02:28:30,120
Tandy.

3290
02:28:30,120 --> 02:28:33,600
with others expected soon, including Tandy and Hewlett-Packard.

3291
02:28:34,080 --> 02:28:38,160
Some breakthroughs announced this past week in the development of parallel processing computers.

3292
02:28:38,560 --> 02:28:44,220
Two firms say they've developed new machines which can run at speeds approaching the much more expensive supercomputers.

3293
02:28:44,220 --> 02:28:52,920
One new machine, called the Butterfly, links 128 Motorola 68,000 chips to accomplish speeds of 60 million instructions per second.

3294
02:28:53,240 --> 02:29:01,060
The other machine, called the Connection, couples 1,000 chips, each containing 16 microprocessors, to achieve speeds of 250 MIPS.

3295
02:29:01,400 --> 02:29:09,840
Also Intel announced it will soon introduce its own parallel processing computer, which uses 128 chips to achieve speeds of 100 MIPS.

3296
02:29:10,640 --> 02:29:14,560
Our fast-talking software reviewer, Paul Schindler, is up next with his picture.

3297
02:29:14,560 --> 02:29:15,700
Again, he's back again.

3298
02:29:16,040 --> 02:29:22,200
I'm wearing my banker's pinstripes and counting this pitiful wad of cash in order to get ready to play bank president,

3299
02:29:22,440 --> 02:29:26,600
one of the most interesting and yet strangest simulation games I've ever run into.

3300
02:29:26,600 --> 02:29:30,740
The company says it's just the first of a series of chief executive officer software games.

3301
02:29:31,100 --> 02:29:34,380
In this game, you get to be the chief executive officer of a major bank.

3302
02:29:34,720 --> 02:29:37,280
You either play against other bankers or the computer.

3303
02:29:37,820 --> 02:29:40,400
Every aspect of the game environment is under your control.

3304
02:29:40,840 --> 02:29:41,560
Let's have a look.

3305
02:29:42,280 --> 02:29:44,260
First of all, you establish the regulatory environment.

3306
02:29:44,540 --> 02:29:47,080
Maximum interest rates, required reserves, minimum capital.

3307
02:29:47,440 --> 02:29:51,980
Then the game shows you, either with colorful graphics or detailed tables, the results of the previous quarter.

3308
02:29:52,360 --> 02:29:55,400
You decide how much interest you want to pay and what kind of loans you want to make.

3309
02:29:55,720 --> 02:29:58,820
Bank president then calculates the quarter's results and displays them.

3310
02:29:59,020 --> 02:30:02,060
Now, just for the heck of it, I decided to offer 20% on checking accounts.

3311
02:30:02,460 --> 02:30:07,040
Well, it dropped the stock price from $70 to $17, so I guess it wasn't such a good idea.

3312
02:30:07,520 --> 02:30:11,340
Bank president is so addictive, at least one major bank has banned it entirely.

3313
02:30:11,520 --> 02:30:17,320
If you want to see what the fuss is about, try Bank President, $75 from Lewis Lee Corporation, Palo Alto, California.

3314
02:30:17,660 --> 02:30:19,320
For Random Access, I'm Paul Schindler.

3315
02:30:20,060 --> 02:30:27,760
A company called Logical Business Systems has announced a new add-on board for the IBM PC that allows it to respond to spoken commands.

3316
02:30:28,240 --> 02:30:31,260
The system called Voice Command has a vocabulary of 32,000 words.

3317
02:30:31,260 --> 02:30:31,440
Oh, sorry.

3318
02:30:31,520 --> 02:30:39,060
This is the intro, the Computer Chronicles intro I seen a few weeks ago, and I wanted, I couldn't find it.

3319
02:30:39,060 --> 02:30:43,420
It was on music, but it was a bizarre, probably the most bizarre intro I seen yet.

3320
02:30:43,420 --> 02:30:43,500
Oh, sorry.

3321
02:30:43,500 --> 02:31:13,480
This is Jeff Berger.

3322
02:31:13,480 --> 02:31:43,460
This is Jeff Berger.

3323
02:31:43,460 --> 02:31:44,780
The Computer Chronicles.

3324
02:31:44,780 --> 02:31:49,200
Your man's hair in the background, or his head, what happened?

3325
02:31:49,200 --> 02:31:53,540
We'll try to help you understand today as we take a look at the latest hardware and software

3326
02:31:53,540 --> 02:31:55,580
for the Amiga on this edition.

3327
02:31:55,580 --> 02:32:09,460
And today, as we take a look at the latest hardware and software for the Amiga on this edition of the Computer Chronicles.

3328
02:32:11,460 --> 02:32:20,960
Video, if we look carefully, we'll see, you see a video switcher, obviously, a still store, a character generator, paint box, frame buffer, digital video effects, and so on.

3329
02:32:21,200 --> 02:32:22,000
Yet this was not done.

3330
02:32:23,140 --> 02:32:23,880
Holy fucker.

3331
02:32:23,880 --> 02:32:23,880
Holy fucker.

3332
02:32:23,880 --> 02:32:23,880
I'm chronicalized.

3333
02:32:23,880 --> 02:32:23,880
Holy fucker.

3334
02:32:23,880 --> 02:32:25,080
I'm chronicalized.

3335
02:32:25,080 --> 02:32:27,240
I'm actually too chronicalized here.

3336
02:32:27,320 --> 02:32:31,260
I need to, we need to dial it into maybe a fucking Netcafe.

3337
02:32:32,260 --> 02:32:34,460
But I just, oh, that looks good.

3338
02:32:34,520 --> 02:32:35,360
3D graphics.

3339
02:32:35,500 --> 02:32:37,040
Computer Chronicles 3D graphics.

3340
02:32:37,260 --> 02:32:37,640
Fuck.

3341
02:32:38,300 --> 02:32:39,240
99 as well.

3342
02:32:39,280 --> 02:32:40,160
You know it's going to be good.

3343
02:32:41,640 --> 02:32:42,640
Bigstar.com.

3344
02:32:42,740 --> 02:32:44,160
Look at the clarity of the picture.

3345
02:32:44,300 --> 02:32:45,040
It's brilliant.

3346
02:32:46,620 --> 02:32:47,280
It's brilliant.

3347
02:32:51,800 --> 02:32:52,860
Some of these guests.

3348
02:32:55,180 --> 02:32:55,920
It's incredible.

3349
02:32:56,060 --> 02:32:57,420
It's like something out of Guess Who.

3350
02:32:57,420 --> 02:33:05,380

02:34:20,860 --> 02:34:21,860
It's like something out of Guess who.

3426
02:34:21,860 --> 02:34:22,860
It's like something out of Guess who.

3427
02:34:22,860 --> 02:34:23,860
It's like something out of Guess who.

3428
02:34:23,860 --> 02:34:24,860
It's like something out of Guess who.

3429
02:34:24,860 --> 02:34:25,860
It's like something out of Guess who.

3430
02:34:25,860 --> 02:34:26,860
It's like something out of Guess who.

3431
02:34:26,860 --> 02:34:27,980
Just all the cameras.

3432
02:34:27,980 --> 02:34:29,180
Get rid of that one.

3433
02:34:29,180 --> 02:34:31,180
Go back to this one.

3434
02:34:31,180 --> 02:34:41,580
This is the series one.

3435
02:34:41,580 --> 02:34:44,860
I want to see more series one Net Cafe, but I can't find the episodes.

3436
02:34:44,860 --> 02:34:46,540
I think they might actually be on.

3437
02:34:46,540 --> 02:34:47,860
Archive.

3438
02:34:47,860 --> 02:34:49,860
The Internet Archive.

3439
02:34:49,860 --> 02:34:56,540
Which seems to be slow enough.

3440
02:34:56,540 --> 02:35:04,500
When you get into the Internet Archive, it seems to take forever to load different bits and pieces.

3441
02:35:04,500 --> 02:35:08,420
Thank you very much there, Brian Corcoran.

3442
02:35:08,420 --> 02:35:12,420
I'll check out that link that you sent in a bit.

3443
02:35:12,420 --> 02:35:16,740
I just need to see if I can do this because I need to stay on point here.

3444
02:35:16,740 --> 02:35:20,540
Keep on getting distracted by robotic dogs and whatnot.

3445

It's all here, actually.

02:35:51,380 --> 02:35:51,740
Brilliant.

3452
02:35:53,020 --> 02:35:56,900
Anything, is there anything Christmas related though?

3453
02:35:57,540 --> 02:35:58,860
A lot of web startups.

3454
02:36:01,080 --> 02:36:04,180

02:36:04,680 --> 02:36:05,860

Oh, that's what he did.

3462
02:36:29,380 --> 02:36:34,380
This is the Stuart Shafé archive that he donated to the Internet archive.

3463
02:36:35,680 --> 02:36:39,540
All the Computer Chronicles episodes in a box on shelves.

3464
02:36:49,340 --> 02:36:50,540
The global net.

3465
02:36:50,640 --> 02:36:51,420
Weird science.

3466
02:36:51,700 --> 02:36:53,740
I think we've seen the games on the net.

3467
02:36:53,820 --> 02:36:54,840
I don't know if we've seen that.

3468
02:36:54,840 --> 02:37:24,820
I don't know if we've seen that.

3469
02:37:24,820 --> 02:37:54,800
I don't know if we've seen that.

I don't know if we've seen that.

I don't know if we've seen that.

3472
02:37:58,800 --> 02:38:02,800
I don't know if we've seen that.

I don't know if we've seen that.

02:38:10,800 --> 02:38:14,800
I don't know if we've seen that.

3476
02:38:14,800 --> 02:38:18,800
I don't know if we've seen that.

3477
02:38:18,800 --> 02:38:20,560
What sites is most likely to succeed?

3478
02:38:20,800 --> 02:38:21,920
We'll find out next.

3479
02:38:22,800 --> 02:38:23,800
And they're kind of...

3480
02:38:23,800 --> 02:38:26,740
This doesn't look like the net cafe.

3481
02:38:27,240 --> 02:38:30,740
It's called net cafe, but it doesn't have the guys in it.

3482
02:38:30,800 --> 02:38:36,860
The team, the crew, the squad of Jane Withers, Andrew and Shafi.

3483
02:38:39,260 --> 02:38:41,260
Nicholas Negroponte, hackers.

3484
02:38:41,260 --> 02:38:43,260
We've seen that one.

3485
02:38:43,260 --> 02:38:44,260
Comic books on the web.

3486
02:38:44,260 --> 02:38:46,260
That sounds like something that would be...

3487
02:38:46,260 --> 02:38:48,260
Have the crew in it.

3488
02:38:49,260 --> 02:38:52,260
Early net cafe looks at comic book websites.

3489
02:38:54,260 --> 02:38:59,260
Probably gonna be some real fucking nerdy shit here.

02:38:59,260 --> 02:39:00,260
Hero on the web.

3491
02:39:01,260 --> 02:39:03,260
We'll show you two great CD-ROMs.

3492
02:39:03,260 --> 02:39:05,260
The complete mouse and comic book confidential.

3493
02:39:06,260 --> 02:39:07,260
Innovative idea.

3494
02:39:07,260 --> 02:39:07,260
Always le-

3495
02:39:08,260 --> 02:39:10,260
In Palo Alto in the heart of the-

3496
02:39:11,260 --> 02:39:13,260
Hi and welcome to the internet cafe.

3497
02:39:13,260 --> 02:39:16,260
I'm Stuart Shafi here as usual with Jane Withers, Andrew DeVries,

3498
02:39:16,260 --> 02:39:19,260
and we're at Cybersmith in Palo Alto in the heart of the Silicon Valley.

3499
02:39:19,260 --> 02:39:21,260
And we're talking about comics on the web tonight.

3500
02:39:21,260 --> 02:39:23,260
And I have to admit this is a subject I know not-

3501
02:39:23,260 --> 02:39:27,260
I've looked for Jane Withers and Andrew DeVries,

3502
02:39:28,260 --> 02:39:30,260
and there's no fucking sign of them.

3503
02:39:30,260 --> 02:39:34,260
Which is strange really for people who are, you know, on a popular program.

3504
02:39:34,260 --> 02:39:36,260
I think about, I don't read the comics in the paper.

3505
02:39:37,260 --> 02:39:39,260
I was not allowed to read comic books as a kid.

3506
02:39:39,260 --> 02:39:40,260
Read a book, not comic books.

3507
02:39:41,260 --> 02:39:44,260
Unless they were using stage names in the show,

3508
02:39:44,260 --> 02:39:47,260
or if that or they've gone and had their names scrubbed,

3509
02:39:48,260 --> 02:39:50,260
because they didn't want to be associated with it or something.

3510
02:39:50,260 --> 02:39:51,260
You're in charge.

3511
02:39:51,260 --> 02:39:54,260
Well, my mom always says I was, I learned to read reading Mad Magazine.

3512
02:39:54,260 --> 02:39:55,260
I did read Mad Magazine.

3513
02:39:55,260 --> 02:39:56,260
Okay.

3514
02:39:56,260 --> 02:39:57,260
So that's-

3515
02:39:57,260 --> 02:39:58,260
Now we hear the truth.

3516
02:39:58,260 --> 02:39:59,260
In college.

3517
02:39:59,260 --> 02:40:00,260
That's something I like.

3518
02:40:00,260 --> 02:40:07,260
But what I think is interesting now is you're seeing the comic book genre kind of move to a more of a serious lit and a graphic art kind of a mode.

3519
02:40:07,260 --> 02:40:14,260
I actually have a friend who publishes a line of books based on very popular literary novels that are turned into graphic novels.

3520
02:40:14,260 --> 02:40:19,260
They just did one, Paul Auster's City of Glass, which was a really popular new literature.

3521
02:40:19,260 --> 02:40:20,260
And now it's in comic book form.

3522
02:40:21,260 --> 02:40:22,260
Real estate.

3523
02:40:22,260 --> 02:40:23,260
How do you think is more popular?

3524
02:40:23,260 --> 02:40:24,260
Oh, the artist in the family.

3525
02:40:24,260 --> 02:40:26,260
I'm afraid I like Spider-Man and Wonder Woman.

3526
02:40:26,260 --> 02:40:29,260
So it's as far as my comic literary talent go.

3527
02:40:29,260 --> 02:40:30,260
But I don't know.

3528
02:40:30,260 --> 02:40:31,260
I think it's kind of neat.

3529
02:40:31,260 --> 02:40:35,260
I do like checking the web so often and checking the Farside websites.

3530
02:40:35,260 --> 02:40:36,260
And Dilbert.

3531
02:40:36,260 --> 02:40:37,260
Dilbert in the other one.

3532
02:40:37,260 --> 02:40:38,260
Of course.

3533
02:40:38,260 --> 02:40:39,260
Yeah, exactly.

3534
02:40:39,260 --> 02:40:40,260
So that's-

3535
02:40:40,260 --> 02:40:41,260
Dilbert.

3536
02:40:41,260 --> 02:40:42,260
I like the Farside.

3537
02:40:42,260 --> 02:40:45,260
Alright, comics on the web tonight at the Internet Cafe.

3538
02:40:47,260 --> 02:40:48,260
Hey Dave.

3539
02:40:48,260 --> 02:40:49,260
Thanks.

3540
02:40:49,260 --> 02:40:50,260
Hey Dave.

3541
02:40:50,260 --> 02:40:51,260
Besides being assistant-

3542
02:40:51,260 --> 02:40:52,260
This is a new feature.

3543
02:40:52,260 --> 02:41:00,260
I've never seen this where they chat to one of the coffee baristas inside the fucking Cybersmith Web Cafe.

3544
02:41:00,260 --> 02:41:01,260
Manager.

3545
02:41:01,260 --> 02:41:02,260
Hey Dave.

3546
02:41:02,260 --> 02:41:03,260
Here at Cybersmith.

3547
02:41:03,260 --> 02:41:04,260
Dave's got a pony.

3548
02:41:04,260 --> 02:41:05,260
Hey Dave.

3549
02:41:05,260 --> 02:41:06,260
Thanks.

3550
02:41:06,260 --> 02:41:07,260
No problem.

3551
02:41:07,260 --> 02:41:10,260
Besides being assistant manager here at Cybersmith, I've heard that you're also-

3552
02:41:10,260 --> 02:41:14,260
somewhat of an aficionado on comic books and comic websites.

3553
02:41:14,260 --> 02:41:15,260
That's true.

3554
02:41:15,260 --> 02:41:19,260
Where's a good place to start for people who are looking for more information on comics on the web?

3555
02:41:19,260 --> 02:41:24,260
Well, a good general site to start with is Jonah Whealman's comic book page.

3556
02:41:24,260 --> 02:41:30,260
And that's a good place to start because it has lots and lots of links to specific comic book sites.

3557
02:41:30,260 --> 02:41:31,260
So you can jump off from there-

3558
02:41:31,260 --> 02:41:32,260
Right.

3559
02:41:32,260 --> 02:41:37,260
Because there's so many sites out there that there's almost a site for every comic book.

3560
02:41:37,260 --> 02:41:38,260
Okay, great.

3561
02:41:38,260 --> 02:41:40,260
And on that page you can also chat online with other people.

3562
02:41:40,260 --> 02:41:42,260
If you really want to get into the world of comic lovers.

3563
02:41:42,260 --> 02:41:43,260
Right.

3564
02:41:43,260 --> 02:41:47,260
Now it seems like in the last few years that comics have kind of grown up and that some of

3565
02:41:47,260 --> 02:41:53,260
the kid type of comics are making way for more grown up comic sites.

3566
02:41:53,260 --> 02:41:56,260
And I'm wondering, you know, what do you like to check out now?

3567
02:41:56,260 --> 02:41:57,260
Well, it's true.

3568
02:41:57,260 --> 02:42:01,260
I mean, as a kid I was into things like DC comics, you know, the traditional ones-

3569
02:42:01,260 --> 02:42:03,260
Superman, Spider-Man, Batman.

3570
02:42:03,260 --> 02:42:04,260
Right.

3571
02:42:04,260 --> 02:42:06,260
And DC has their own page.

3572
02:42:06,260 --> 02:42:09,260
It's called DC Universe, which is a great page.

3573
02:42:09,260 --> 02:42:14,260
It has links to all those traditional ones as well as a few of the newer ones.

3574
02:42:14,260 --> 02:42:17,260
So DC has also gone into a bit of a more grown up comic.

3575
02:42:17,260 --> 02:42:18,260
Mm-hm.

3576
02:42:18,260 --> 02:42:19,260
So what are some of those comics that you like?

3577
02:42:19,260 --> 02:42:21,260
Oh, uh, Spawn is one of my favorites.

3578
02:42:21,260 --> 02:42:22,260
Spawn.

3579
02:42:22,260 --> 02:42:23,260
Definitely.

3580
02:42:23,260 --> 02:42:24,260
Now is Spawn a regular superhero?

3581
02:42:24,260 --> 02:42:26,260
Like a cape in flying colors?

3582
02:42:26,260 --> 02:42:27,260
Definitely.

3583
02:42:27,260 --> 02:42:29,260
He's one of the newer, he's not so new.

3584
02:42:29,260 --> 02:42:33,260
He's about three years old, but he's definitely one of the more popular ones nowadays.

3585
02:42:33,260 --> 02:42:37,260
Just making me realize, do we- are websites even a thing anymore?

3586
02:42:37,260 --> 02:42:39,260
Is it just social media?

3587
02:42:39,260 --> 02:42:42,260
Like, do people get fucking hyped about websites?

3588
02:42:42,260 --> 02:42:48,260
No one's like arsed, is there, about like, oh, you gotta go on suchandsuch.com or go on this

3589
02:42:48,260 --> 02:42:49,260
fucking website.

3590
02:42:49,260 --> 02:42:56,260
It's all just links of videos sent to each other on social media.

3591
02:42:56,260 --> 02:43:02,260
But I'm not, I mean, I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but I mean-

3592
02:43:02,260 --> 02:43:08,260
It's probably a faster way of getting good stuff that you wanna see, but it's, it's, I don't know.

3593
02:43:08,260 --> 02:43:11,260
...on a homepage, done by the person who wrote-

3594
02:43:11,260 --> 02:43:13,260
This was rubbish anyway.

3595
02:43:13,260 --> 02:43:14,260
...created Spawn.

3596
02:43:14,260 --> 02:43:19,260
Oh, and they're actually like merchandising things on there as well, so you can buy Spawn t-shirts.

3597
02:43:19,260 --> 02:43:20,260
Right, right.

3598
02:43:20,260 --> 02:43:22,260
What are some other sites?

3599
02:43:22,260 --> 02:43:31,260
I've seen some comics that are taking a little more of a storyline, a little more literature involved in what they're writing as well.

3600
02:43:31,260 --> 02:43:32,260
Anything like that.

3601
02:43:32,260 --> 02:43:35,260
Right, those are more of the comic books that I've gotten into as I grew older.

3602
02:43:35,260 --> 02:43:38,260
Um, like, The Preacher is a very good one.

3603
02:43:38,260 --> 02:43:40,260
Um, it's definitely-

3604
02:43:40,260 --> 02:43:42,260
You can skip this shit, man, look at that.

3605
02:43:42,260 --> 02:43:44,260
...over here, over the comic book site.

3606
02:43:44,260 --> 02:43:47,260
...and I've heard that there's a small-

3607
02:43:47,260 --> 02:43:48,260
...and I-

3608
02:43:48,260 --> 02:43:49,260
...now the fad-

3609
02:43:49,260 --> 02:43:50,260
...the stages start-

3610
02:43:50,260 --> 02:43:51,260
...and I-

3611
02:43:51,260 --> 02:43:54,260
...I gotta tell you, I just love the stuff you guys are doing.

3612
02:43:54,260 --> 02:43:56,260
This is what you're calling digital comic books.

3613
02:43:56,260 --> 02:43:57,260
You've really created a whole new-

3614
02:43:57,260 --> 02:43:59,260
What is this fucking yoke here?

3615
02:43:59,260 --> 02:44:01,260
You had this in the last episode as well.

3616
02:44:01,260 --> 02:44:08,260
It's a real fucking V-Tech, Fisher Price, Fisher Stew keyboard.

3617
02:44:08,260 --> 02:44:12,260
...category something between a comic book and a TV cartoon.

3618
02:44:12,260 --> 02:44:14,260
...just explain the concept of what-

3619
02:44:14,260 --> 02:44:16,260
...what you're trying to do with a digital comic book.

3620
02:44:16,260 --> 02:44:20,260
Well, we're trying to make the tick or whoever be able to jump off the page-

3621
02:44:20,260 --> 02:44:21,260
...your computer-

3622
02:44:21,260 --> 02:44:22,260
...or jump off of your computer screen.

3623
02:44:22,260 --> 02:44:24,260
Um, we want our products to come to life.

3624
02:44:24,260 --> 02:44:29,260
Um, kind of like the television show, but it's a computer so you can click on certain things-

3625
02:44:29,260 --> 02:44:36,260
You can go back to... Camera spike there. Oh, this isn't YouTube, but you haven't got the fucking...

3626
02:44:36,260 --> 02:44:45,260
Well, jump off the page. Look at those little embossed floral designs on Stu's collar there.

3627
02:44:45,260 --> 02:44:49,260
Computer, so you can click on certain things... Camera spike.

3628
02:44:49,260 --> 02:44:53,260
You can go back, forwards, and forwards. You can make the hot spots.

3629
02:44:53,260 --> 02:44:56,260
Well, jump off the page was a good mistake you made, because that's really the experience.

3630
02:44:56,260 --> 02:45:00,260
You think you're kind of reading a comic book. It looks like a comic book. But the darn thing is alive.

3631
02:45:00,260 --> 02:45:06,260
Let's talk about the tick for a minute. I mean, explain those things you can do with the digital tick that you can't do with...

3632
02:45:06,260 --> 02:45:08,260
Certainly with a TV show or... DGTick.

3633
02:45:08,260 --> 02:45:12,260
Well, we think that it probably adds a lot to the humor value of the tick.

3634
02:45:12,260 --> 02:45:16,260
I mean, that's one of the strongest things about that title and that character.

3635
02:45:16,260 --> 02:45:18,260
And so with interactive...

3636
02:45:18,260 --> 02:45:19,260
Look.

3637
02:45:19,260 --> 02:45:24,260
Now I can have a video game and I can play, you know, put the headset on and play the video games and shoot them down

3638
02:45:24,260 --> 02:45:34,260
and get that whole experience that way. Do you think that that's going to replace the need for comic books?

3639
02:45:34,260 --> 02:45:38,260
Very much in the States comic books have mostly been the Superman fantasy of beating up the bully and saving the girl.

3640
02:45:38,260 --> 02:45:39,260
Exactly.

3641
02:45:39,260 --> 02:45:46,260
And video games are replacing them. In Japan that's not the case. But in most of Europe and the States it's the young boy power fantasy.

3642
02:45:46,260 --> 02:45:48,260
So why do you think Japan is different?

3643
02:45:48,260 --> 02:45:50,260
Young boy power fantasy.

3644
02:45:50,260 --> 02:45:56,260
And it's a great... It's a classic Jane Withers stance.

3645
02:45:56,260 --> 02:45:58,260
The cross leg.

3646
02:45:58,260 --> 02:46:00,260
And a chin grip as well.

3647
02:46:00,260 --> 02:46:04,260
Japan, their language is idiogrammatic rather than...

3648
02:46:04,260 --> 02:46:06,940
What would you call that if it's not a stance?

3649
02:46:07,280 --> 02:46:08,140
She sat down.

3650
02:46:08,240 --> 02:46:09,380
Is that just a stance?

3651
02:46:10,240 --> 02:46:11,420
It's a classic stance.

3652
02:46:13,480 --> 02:46:14,500
Is it a young...

3653
02:46:14,500 --> 02:46:17,460
Would you call that a young boy power fantasy that she's doing?

3654
02:46:18,960 --> 02:46:20,000
Wurzel Grippage.

3655
02:46:20,520 --> 02:46:21,940
And video games are replacing them.

3656
02:46:22,500 --> 02:46:23,840
In Japan, that's not the case.

3657
02:46:24,400 --> 02:46:27,260
But in most of Europe and the States, it's the young boy power fantasy.

3658
02:46:27,820 --> 02:46:29,240
So why do you think Japan is different?

3659
02:46:29,820 --> 02:46:34,040
Japan, their language is idiogrammatic rather than phonetic.

3660
02:46:34,600 --> 02:46:39,260
So their characters in their written language represent ideas rather than sounds.

3661
02:46:39,960 --> 02:46:43,060
So the language of comics is almost identical to their written language.

3662
02:46:43,640 --> 02:46:46,140
So it's a complementary visual medium.

3663
02:46:46,140 --> 02:46:49,260
So comics are popular with adults in Japan.

3664
02:46:49,480 --> 02:46:50,400
And they're not just stories.

3665
02:46:50,600 --> 02:46:55,580
They're college textbooks and they're newspapers and they're magazines and they're read by everyone.

3666
02:46:56,340 --> 02:46:58,960
So it's pretty integrated in the whole culture.

3667
02:46:59,380 --> 02:47:03,840
I think, from my perspective, one of the things about comic books is they're great learning tools,

3668
02:47:03,920 --> 02:47:07,840
especially for young children, so that they can visually see these stories being told

3669
02:47:07,840 --> 02:47:10,320
and they can start learning how to read and doing all those things.

3670
02:47:10,460 --> 02:47:14,720
But this was a really great comic and I hope that you're going to do a lot more.

3671
02:47:14,880 --> 02:47:15,560
Thanks very much, Kristen.

3672
02:47:16,400 --> 02:47:18,180
She doesn't look happy, this lady here.

3673
02:47:18,760 --> 02:47:22,360
This was a really great comic and I hope that you're going to do a lot of stories there.

3674
02:47:22,360 --> 02:47:26,320
This is the great level and they can start learning how to read and doing all those things.

3675
02:47:26,560 --> 02:47:30,740
This was a really great comic and I hope that you're going to do a lot more.

3676
02:47:30,900 --> 02:47:31,560
Thanks very much, Kristen.

3677
02:47:31,720 --> 02:47:32,040
Thank you.

3678
02:47:33,600 --> 02:47:41,440
This is fucking weird.

3679
02:47:41,540 --> 02:47:44,300
They always do the cyber blast and they say, we're going to send you all this.

3680
02:47:44,420 --> 02:47:46,980
So we're going to like show you some cool stuff.

3681
02:47:46,980 --> 02:47:52,480
But two thirds of their three quarters of the screen is just a fucking static.

3682
02:47:53,140 --> 02:47:57,480
Comic chat.

3683
02:47:57,480 --> 02:47:57,560
Comic chat.

3684
02:47:57,560 --> 02:47:58,760
Where's Waldo game?

3685
02:47:59,120 --> 02:48:03,120
This will be over four megabytes of data in the next 120 seconds.

3686
02:48:03,460 --> 02:48:04,100
Right, we'll skip.

3687
02:48:05,140 --> 02:48:05,820
And I don't understand.

3688
02:48:06,100 --> 02:48:09,780
Are they downloading stuff to your computer while we're watching this or what?

3689
02:48:10,440 --> 02:48:14,440
Another sensual interview here from DeVries.

3690
02:48:14,660 --> 02:48:16,260
The download is just about finished.

3691
02:48:16,640 --> 02:48:19,840
Future real estate mogul DeVries.

3692
02:48:19,900 --> 02:48:21,500
So have fun with your three new games.

3693
02:48:21,780 --> 02:48:24,160
That wraps up this cyber blast on the internet cafe.

3694
02:48:24,620 --> 02:48:25,540
I'm Giles Bateman.

3695
02:48:26,980 --> 02:48:34,860
So we're here talking about comic books and you've created a comic book that I think every parent would love their kid to be reading called Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.

3696
02:48:36,160 --> 02:48:36,640
Classic.

3697
02:48:37,100 --> 02:48:38,380
Classic comic book.

3698
02:48:39,440 --> 02:48:42,060
Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.

3699
02:48:43,300 --> 02:48:45,440
I was just about to make a comment as well.

3700
02:48:45,580 --> 02:48:50,520
He does look like someone who might fucking do something dodgy at a school or something.

3701
02:48:51,420 --> 02:48:52,980
This fella that he's interviewing.

3702
02:48:53,480 --> 02:48:55,000
And that's the comic book that he's launching.

3703
02:48:55,000 --> 02:48:59,000
So we're talking about comic books and you've created a comic book that I think every parent...

3704
02:49:01,000 --> 02:49:07,620
You know, does his parents own a gun and have the check to make sure that he isn't fucking using it at times.

3705
02:49:08,440 --> 02:49:10,560
And bringing it in and out of the house.

3706
02:49:10,560 --> 02:49:14,440
I would love their kid to be reading called Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.

3707
02:49:14,800 --> 02:49:17,560
Where'd you come up with that title and the character Johnny?

3708
02:49:18,920 --> 02:49:21,040
Basically I started doing the character in...

3709
02:49:21,040 --> 02:49:22,680
His name is Jan.

3710
02:49:22,880 --> 02:49:23,340
Janan.

3711
02:49:23,460 --> 02:49:24,120
In high school.

3712
02:49:24,360 --> 02:49:28,620
Check out the fucking crispy fucking lawn.

3713
02:49:32,080 --> 02:49:32,640
Gelboy.

3714
02:49:33,640 --> 02:49:34,900
Gelboy and Rodney.

3715
02:49:37,260 --> 02:49:37,760
I was doing a lot of work.

3716
02:49:37,760 --> 02:49:38,260
I was doing a lot of work.

3717
02:49:38,260 --> 02:49:38,260
I was doing a lot of work.

3718
02:49:38,260 --> 02:49:38,260
I was doing a lot of work.

02:49:38,260 --> 02:49:39,260

I was doing a lot of work.

Johnny's Revenge.

3759
02:50:14,260 --> 02:50:29,260
It's about broads.

3760
02:50:29,260 --> 02:50:31,260
It's about broads.

3761
02:50:31,260 --> 02:50:33,260
Because you've gotten some fame.

3762
02:50:33,260 --> 02:50:34,260
People know about you.

3763
02:50:34,260 --> 02:50:36,260
I know you've told me that there's so-

3764
02:50:36,260 --> 02:50:37,260
Broads.

3765
02:50:37,260 --> 02:50:38,260
Broads.

3766
02:50:38,260 --> 02:50:39,260
A thousand.

3767
02:50:39,260 --> 02:50:41,260
It's really a broad comic book.

3768
02:50:41,260 --> 02:50:42,260
It's about broads.

3769
02:50:42,260 --> 02:50:44,260
It's good.

3770
02:50:44,260 --> 02:50:45,260
It's good.

3771
02:50:45,260 --> 02:50:46,260
And now-

3772
02:50:47,260 --> 02:50:48,260
What was going on there?

3773
02:50:48,260 --> 02:50:49,260
Was that a joke?

3774
02:50:49,260 --> 02:50:51,260
Or did he say-

3775
02:50:51,260 --> 02:50:53,260
Was he really saying it was about broads?

3776
02:50:53,260 --> 02:50:54,260
Like about women?

3777
02:50:55,260 --> 02:50:56,260
It's about broads.

3778
02:50:58,260 --> 02:51:00,260
Or was it something he said like-

3779
02:51:00,260 --> 02:51:01,260
Did he misspeak?

3780
02:51:01,260 --> 02:51:02,260
And then-

3781
02:51:02,260 --> 02:51:05,260
De Vries thought it was a joke.

3782
02:51:09,260 --> 02:51:10,260
Very confused here.

3783
02:51:10,260 --> 02:51:11,260
And now-

3784
02:51:11,260 --> 02:51:14,260
Because you've gotten some fame.

3785
02:51:14,260 --> 02:51:15,260
And people know about you.

3786
02:51:15,260 --> 02:51:17,260
I know you've told me that there's-

3787
02:51:17,260 --> 02:51:18,260
Broads.

3788
02:51:18,260 --> 02:51:20,260
And it originally began at 5,000.

3789
02:51:20,260 --> 02:51:21,260
So it's-

3790
02:51:21,260 --> 02:51:23,260
So it's really a broad-

3791
02:51:23,260 --> 02:51:24,260
A broad comic book.

3792
02:51:24,260 --> 02:51:25,260
Yeah, it's about broads.

3793
02:51:25,260 --> 02:51:26,260
And-

3794
02:51:26,260 --> 02:51:27,260
It's good.

3795
02:51:27,260 --> 02:51:28,260
It's good.

3796
02:51:28,260 --> 02:51:29,260
And now-

3797
02:51:29,260 --> 02:51:30,260
Um-

3798
02:51:30,260 --> 02:51:31,260
Because you've gotten some fame.

3799
02:51:31,260 --> 02:51:32,260
And people know about you.

3800
02:51:32,260 --> 02:51:33,260
I-

3801
02:51:33,260 --> 02:51:36,260
I know you've told me that there's sites out there on the web that are-

3802
02:51:36,260 --> 02:51:37,260
Um-

3803
02:51:37,260 --> 02:51:38,260
Starting to pay homage to-

3804
02:51:38,260 --> 02:51:39,260
To-

3805
02:51:39,260 --> 02:51:40,260
To Johnny the homicidal.

3806
02:51:40,260 --> 02:51:40,260
Uh-

3807
02:51:40,260 --> 02:51:41,260
Maniac.

3808
02:51:41,260 --> 02:51:42,260
Johnny the homicidal?

3809
02:51:42,260 --> 02:51:44,260
Tell me what that feels like to you to have people kind of-

3810
02:51:44,260 --> 02:51:45,260
Um-

3811
02:51:45,260 --> 02:51:47,260
Praising you up on the web.

3812
02:51:47,260 --> 02:51:49,260
Any sort of response is-

3813
02:51:49,260 --> 02:51:50,260
It's flattering.

3814
02:51:50,260 --> 02:51:51,260
It's-

3815
02:51:51,260 --> 02:51:55,260
It's nice to know that the people took, you know, time out of their days to, uh-

3816
02:51:55,260 --> 02:51:58,260
Basically do some- devote something to my work.

3817
02:51:58,260 --> 02:51:59,260
It's- it's an interesting feeling.

3818
02:51:59,260 --> 02:52:00,260
Uh-

3819
02:52:00,260 --> 02:52:01,260
You showed me one of the sites.

3820
02:52:01,260 --> 02:52:02,260
Uh-

3821
02:52:02,260 --> 02:52:03,260
And to see, uh-

3822
02:52:03,260 --> 02:52:04,260
People, um-

3823
02:52:04,260 --> 02:52:08,260
Basically doing sort of literary criticism about a comic book.

3824
02:52:08,260 --> 02:52:12,260
And especially a comic book that has a lot of violence and things in it.

3825
02:52:12,260 --> 02:52:13,260
What- what's your feeling on that?

3826
02:52:13,260 --> 02:52:14,260
Are they- are they being accurate?

3827
02:52:14,260 --> 02:52:15,260
Are they reading more into it?

3828
02:52:15,260 --> 02:52:16,260
Less into it?

3829
02:52:16,260 --> 02:52:21,260
Well, the fact that they're capable of literary criticism, you know, automatically makes me okay with them.

3830
02:52:21,260 --> 02:52:22,260
You're right.

3831
02:52:22,260 --> 02:52:25,260
A lot of the response I get is just people saying, "There ain't enough killing."

3832
02:52:25,260 --> 02:52:27,260
And now, don't write to me.

3833
02:52:27,260 --> 02:52:28,260
A lot more.

3834
02:52:28,260 --> 02:52:34,260
Yeah, so, you know, there's pages that devote, you know, that much time in literary criticism, people reading things into it.

3835
02:52:34,260 --> 02:52:36,260
It's interesting to see everyone's take on it.

3836
02:52:36,260 --> 02:52:37,260
So, people making-

3837
02:52:37,260 --> 02:52:38,260
Biblical-

3838
02:52:38,260 --> 02:52:39,260
Biblical references.

3839
02:52:39,260 --> 02:52:40,260
Yeah, you saw the one.

3840
02:52:40,260 --> 02:52:45,260
Um, not that I intend for any of this stuff to be taken this way, but it's interesting to see how it's-

3841
02:52:45,260 --> 02:52:49,260
It's interesting to see how it is taken and how misguided some of these people are.

3842
02:52:49,260 --> 02:52:50,260
People really- yeah, really looking into it.

3843
02:52:50,260 --> 02:52:51,260
Yeah.

3844
02:52:51,260 --> 02:52:52,260
Now, the other thing is email.

3845
02:52:52,260 --> 02:52:57,260
A lot of these sites have email links to your- uh, your email and are sending you.

3846
02:52:57,260 --> 02:52:58,260
What kind of stuff are you getting?

3847
02:52:58,260 --> 02:53:00,260
Um, all just sex offers.

3848
02:53:00,260 --> 02:53:01,260
Perfect.

3849
02:53:01,260 --> 02:53:06,260
But, yeah, that and just generally kind response.

3850
02:53:06,260 --> 02:53:08,260
Just people saying that I like your book and-

3851
02:53:08,260 --> 02:53:10,260
Just sex offers.

3852
02:53:10,260 --> 02:53:11,260
Yeah.

3853
02:53:11,260 --> 02:53:15,260
I do get things that go, you know, beyond the realm of creepiness.

3854
02:53:15,260 --> 02:53:20,260
Right, because I was going to say, your book has a lot of- of represents the violence and some creepy stuff.

3855
02:53:20,260 --> 02:53:22,260
I mean, there's murders and things like that.

3856
02:53:22,260 --> 02:53:23,260
So, what's your feeling?

3857
02:53:23,260 --> 02:53:25,260
Well, I do get people to sing.

3858
02:53:25,260 --> 02:53:26,260
No one ever-

3859
02:53:26,260 --> 02:53:27,260
Fuckin' hell.

3860
02:53:27,260 --> 02:53:31,260
And what I thought was the most interesting part of it was his commentary at the end.

3861
02:53:31,260 --> 02:53:34,260
So, he actually talks about the process of his creating the comic book.

3862
02:53:34,260 --> 02:53:35,260
Mm-hmm.

3863
02:53:35,260 --> 02:53:37,260
Also, some of his commentary on, uh, some of the critics of-

3864
02:53:37,260 --> 02:53:39,260
Mark Crum and some of his great stuff.

3865
02:53:39,260 --> 02:53:41,260
What did we learn tonight about Comic Book Art?

3866
02:53:41,260 --> 02:53:46,260
Well, I thought it was really interesting to see an artist like Jonan Vasquez who created a comic book and-

3867
02:53:46,260 --> 02:53:50,260
And is an artist and had no real intention of being on the internet.

3868
02:53:50,260 --> 02:53:53,260
And suddenly, fan sites have sprung up everywhere.

3869
02:53:53,260 --> 02:53:58,260
He's getting, you know, hundreds of emails a week from people that he had no desire to reach out to.

3870
02:53:58,260 --> 02:54:00,260
So, even when you don't publish on the net, you end up on the net.

3871
02:54:00,260 --> 02:54:02,260
It seems that way right now.

3872
02:54:02,260 --> 02:54:03,260
There's nothing you can do about it.

3873
02:54:03,260 --> 02:54:05,260
Actually, it's funny because Kristen was telling me the same thing.

3874
02:54:05,260 --> 02:54:09,260
She mean, it was just, you know, sort of an accidental thing to get the website-

3875
02:54:09,260 --> 02:54:10,260
Good man, thank you.

3876
02:54:10,260 --> 02:54:13,260
And start, you know, doing some different things with the comic book.

3877
02:54:13,260 --> 02:54:18,260
And, you know, her whole career just took off by doing that one action.

3878
02:54:18,260 --> 02:54:19,260
It was pretty amazing.

3879
02:54:19,260 --> 02:54:20,260
No fuckin' way.

3880
02:54:20,260 --> 02:54:21,260
But what was interesting is that, you know, talking to her-

3881
02:54:21,260 --> 02:54:24,260
Sorry, I've just got a link there about Andrew DeVries.

3882
02:54:24,260 --> 02:54:26,260
The comic book on the web is certainly not a replacement for the comic book itself.

3883
02:54:26,260 --> 02:54:27,260
He looks completely different.

3884
02:54:27,260 --> 02:54:31,260
Her message was, it's a great place to advertise, but really, the people, people want to buy the books, ultimately.

3885
02:54:31,260 --> 02:54:36,260
Well, more than that, sobering thought, comic book art is art and graphics and the web is still slow.

3886
02:54:36,260 --> 02:54:37,260
Unbelievable.

3887
02:54:37,260 --> 02:54:39,260
Just need to see this.

3888
02:54:43,260 --> 02:54:44,260
DeVries.

3889
02:54:46,260 --> 02:54:47,260
Robate.

3890
02:54:50,260 --> 02:54:51,260
That's him.

3891
02:54:53,260 --> 02:54:54,260
That's him now.

3892
02:54:54,260 --> 02:54:56,260
You're not going to see a lot of rich, colorful art on the web.

3893
02:54:56,260 --> 02:55:08,260
What I really like, though, in terms of really wanting to buy the piece of paper, the guy I talked to from Inverse Inc., his digital comic book idea is really cool.

3894
02:55:08,260 --> 02:55:10,260
I mean, you can't do that.

3895
02:55:10,260 --> 02:55:13,260
Videotapes of the web is certainly not a replacement.

3896
02:55:13,260 --> 02:55:14,260
There's nothing you can do about it.

3897
02:55:14,260 --> 02:55:16,260
And isn't curious about the head.

3898
02:55:16,260 --> 02:55:17,260
No one does that.

3899
02:55:17,260 --> 02:55:18,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3900
02:55:18,260 --> 02:55:19,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3901
02:55:19,260 --> 02:55:20,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3902
02:55:20,260 --> 02:55:21,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3903
02:55:21,260 --> 02:55:22,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3904
02:55:22,260 --> 02:55:23,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3905
02:55:23,260 --> 02:55:24,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3906
02:55:24,260 --> 02:55:25,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3907
02:55:25,260 --> 02:55:26,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3908
02:55:26,260 --> 02:55:27,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3909
02:55:27,260 --> 02:55:28,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3910
02:55:28,260 --> 02:55:29,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3911
02:55:29,260 --> 02:55:30,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3912
02:55:30,260 --> 02:55:31,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3913
02:55:31,260 --> 02:55:32,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3914
02:55:32,260 --> 02:55:33,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3915
02:55:33,260 --> 02:55:34,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3916
02:55:34,260 --> 02:55:35,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3917
02:55:35,260 --> 02:55:36,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3918
02:55:36,260 --> 02:55:37,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3919
02:55:37,260 --> 02:55:38,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3920
02:55:38,260 --> 02:55:39,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3921
02:55:39,260 --> 02:55:40,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3922
02:55:40,260 --> 02:55:41,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3923
02:55:41,260 --> 02:55:42,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3924
02:55:42,260 --> 02:55:43,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3925
02:55:43,260 --> 02:55:44,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3926
02:55:44,260 --> 02:55:45,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3927
02:55:45,260 --> 02:55:46,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3928
02:55:46,260 --> 02:55:47,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3929
02:55:47,260 --> 02:55:48,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3930
02:55:48,260 --> 02:55:49,260
I'm not going to be able to do that.

3931
02:55:49,260 --> 02:56:01,260
That was shite.

3932
02:56:01,260 --> 02:56:02,260
That was rubbish.

3933
02:56:02,260 --> 02:56:06,260
And there seems to be no episodes of NETCAFE

3934
02:56:06,260 --> 02:56:08,260
that I actually want to see here.

3935
02:56:08,260 --> 02:56:12,260
But I'm thinking of Hitman or Elden Ring.

3936
02:56:12,260 --> 02:56:14,260
But I just want to get some grub.

3937
02:56:14,260 --> 02:56:16,260
A bit of fucking grubbage.

3938
02:56:16,260 --> 02:56:23,260
But that's been a nice, that was a nice few episodes.

3939
02:56:23,260 --> 02:56:27,260
That's a sensual animation of a mouse there for PCTV.

3940
02:56:27,260 --> 02:56:28,260
Watch the future.

3941
02:56:28,260 --> 02:56:30,260
So I'll be back in a bit.

3942
02:56:30,260 --> 02:56:35,260
But until then, good night and God bless in the afternoon.

3943
02:56:35,260 --> 02:56:51,260
.
