Al Charpentier in Dave’s Garage
Not sure if anyone follows Dave’s Garage on YouTube (Dave is an ex-OS engineer from Microsoft) but he interviewed Al Charpentier about Commodore and designing the VIC, and he mentions VCFe. Dave’s a big Commodore fan and kind of grew up like many of us, using the VIC or C64, as our first computers. https://youtu.be/rs6J_PP7O7k Rich http://cini.classiccmp.org/ Long Island S100 User’s Group Get Outlook<https://aka.ms/qtex0l> for iOS
Very worth following. He did a bit of programming back in the day (Amiga Hypercache) and is currently fixing up a KIM-1 that be bought with a large expansion cage of cards from Ebay. On Sat, May 14, 2022 at 11:29 PM Richard Cini via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

Yes. I saw that pop up on my suggestions as it was playing live. I didn't get a chance to look at it because I was reviewing the video for VCF East where he was doing the Friday technical talk. I will watch it later. Glad to see that there are others interviewing these guys. It helps to preserve history and no one Video will have all the stories in one place. Sometimes different questions are asked and different memories are triggered.

Yes. I'm going to invite him to come to VCF East next year.
