● Description "Interactive Movie" was an oft overused term in the brave new world of multimedia. Over promising and under delivering. Then one game came along which changed it all, at least for me, and it's high time I went back to look again.
You may remember these PC's from last year when I picked them up for a ridiculous £1.60 each and then didn't quite know what to do with them all. Well, now I have an idea! But first they are going to need some serious cleaning.

The Sharp X68000 Expert is a firm favourite here in The Cave. A workstation used by gaming greats such as Capcom and Taito to create huge arcade hits, and as a result it is home to some of the most perfect arcade game ports. It is of course a hugely capable workstation computer as well, but that's a bit difficult to explore when you don't speak Japanese! Today I face the challenges of using a Japanese exclusive machine here in the UK and figuring out how to make it accessible to visitors to The Cave.

The Commodore Amiga CDTV, or Commodore CDTV as it was originally known is a bit of retro tech that I've wanted to research and restore for decades. This new Trash to Treasure ™ series does just that. This old computer sounds odd at first, appearing like a hifi music system it wouldn't look out of place sat on a VCR in your living room. But inside it's a full-blown Commodore Amiga 500 with extra bells and whistles. Designed to compete with similar devices such as the Philips CDi, the CDTV was championed by Atari VCS and Atari founder Nolan Bushnell and released in 1991. Dive into some more computer history and vintage computer restoration with me for the start of a new T2T series.

What good is refurbishing computers if I don't play them! It's time to set the record straight with some regular gaming. Today I revisit Stunt Island to see if it's as good as my nostalgic memories remember it to be.

We continue to turn our dumpster PC into my ultimate 486 gaming machine. Today we're adding a great sound card as well a Roland SC-88VL to take care of Midi music. What do you think of the result? Would you have done it differently? And where shall we go next with our build?
I mention a Phils Computer Lab review and you can find that here:

● Description
Cave Party! Friends of the Cave join me today as we set the record straight on just what the Amiga was capable of when it comes to MIDI. The Atari ST range and later the Falcon became the go to choice for hit record makers and the PC enjoyed MIDI soundtracks in their games, was the Amiga as capable? Let's find out.
● Corrections
At 19:37 I say the MT-32 is "note technically a MIDI device" - I mean "not technically a GENERAL MIDI device". Thanks Simon Donnellan.
