The Evolution of the Commodore Amiga CDTV - Trash to Treasure (pt3)
? Check out PCBWay at https://pcbway.com for all your PCB needs! ? What did the CDTV evolve to become? Today I look at the story of the Commodore CDTV from set-top box to fully fledged desktop computer. We upgrade my CDTV using some modern upgrades to see if we can make it into a more useful device, and we explore some of the original CDTV titles. You've probably seen "The Town with No Name" over on AVGN, but it gets a lot worse!

I take a look at the Mayflash Arcade Fighting Stick, a budget stick that seems to be up for sale everywhere you look. A stick with an identity crisis and some flaws which we might be able to fix.

Building a Computer Exhibition is no small task as we've learned during this build series, and this month is no different. Big progress has been made with the handheld gaming area, the lighting, electrics and ambient audio. I'm already looking forward to the next one!
