Double Sided.  Double Density.  Guaranteed.

Welcome to Show 015!  This week's topic: The Bulletin Board System, Part II!

Topics and links discussed in the podcast...

I got my Atari Peripheral Emulator software and CD archive from Atarimax!  Yee hah, Atari madness for me.
I'm learning Atari Player/Missile Graphics in BASIC from the book archive on AtariArchives.org.
Phillip was able to attend the Classic Gaming Expo UK recently - looks like fun!
At that Classic Gaming Expo, a lucky person had a Commodore 65.  Rare retro madness!
Bo Zimmerman hosts one of my favorite Commodore sites.  Chris C. referenced it in a recent e-mail, thanks Chris!
Thurstan linked me over to a video of the Computer History Museum (Link 1) (Link 2), and some chats with various people from back in the day.  I've seen the first few minutes, and can't wait to watch the rest!
Chris O. has a podcast, UK and European gaming news brought to you weekly!
You have GOT to check out the BBS Documentary site.  The software list and history archive are amazing, and will keep you reading for hours.

Be sure to send any comments, questions or feedback to retrobits@gmail.com.

Our Theme Song is "Sweet" from the "Re-Think" album by Galigan.

Thanks for listening!
