chinnyvision-ep-170-tandy-colour
Remember Tandy? The catalogue shop that had a major share of UK electronics retail until the mid 90's? Well they teamed up with Motorola to produce a range of home micros. A hit in the USA, in the UK there was no enthusiasm for the micro. This example is the Tandy Colour Computer 2, a 1983 stab at getting a share of the home micro market for Tandy.

chinnyvision-ep-234-new-cassette
Cassette recorders have never truly gone away but getting hold of ones with the remote socket required by BBC, MSX and CPC owners has become harder. So imagine my surprise to find out that a high street shop in the UK was stocking cassette recorders that looked suitable for these machines. I head off to Asda to see if I can get hold of one.

chinnyvision-ep-277-super-space-invaders
It's Space Invaders, but Super! Yes Taito's Space Invaders '91 made it to the Atari ST, Amiga, C64, CPC, Spectrum and Sega Master System. An update of a game over a decade old and treated with slight disdain by reviewers at the time. But is it worth revisiting in 2019? We check its out on the original hardware.
Stupidly I don't show how to activate the power-ups anywhere in this. You pull back to activate them. Sorry!

chinnyvision-ep-282-mustek-hand-scanner
Getting images into your computer was challenging until the advent of the scanner. But flat bed scanners were very expensive, thus the hand scanner was born. However this gave users unique challenges when trying to scan in images.
The Mustek Hand Scanner is shown running on an accelerated Amiga 1200.
