Donation af EP to Retro Man Cave
« on: 2019.April.06. 07:21:17 »
Hi all

I regularly watch the Retro Man Cave channel on YouTube:

https://www.youtube.com/user/RetroManCave/featured

Tha latest episode is a so called "Trash to Treasure" where he restores and old 8 bit and tells the story behind. The latest episode is about the Dragon computer but he has done many others before.

RMC has A LOT of subscribers.

Should we - as a community - donate an old broken EP128 (with som extras) to him so that he can fix and tell the story of our beloved machine? I would be happy to chip in.

Just a suggestion to get the word more out :-)

I tend to watch him as well every now and then, he produces nicely made retro videos.

Good idea, although I don't have a leftover Enti to spare....

Just a quick effort to revive this idea :)

In his latest video Retro Man Cave is on a road trip where he visits a micro machine museum that has a Enterprise 64 on display. The owner of the museum says, that the Enterprise was very late into market but that "it was the computer Britain ever made". RMC says "Realy! That is definitely going on my list, then" :-)

See the clip around 7 minutes in:

Anybody up for a donation? :lol:

It looks like our beloved machine is about to get some nice PR soon:

Really looking forward to see what RMC can make of it.
