Bil and Andy inteview on-line (Was: Andy Finkel to be...)

I wrote:(from CommVEx v4 Presentations)

...CBM engineer Bil Herd suggested the idea of a video conference into this year's CommVEx, instead of the usual pre-recorded, yearly CBM Animals video. He has rounded up Andy Finkel, CBM engineer who has worked on the VIC-20, C64, and Amiga as the focus of this conference.

Bil said, "I was able to get hold of Andy Finkel who was head of the games group the entire time I was there and went on to do LOTs of Amiga stuff, he literally knows where some of the bodies were buried on the Amiga sw."
For those who haven't kept up, the video interview became a telephone interview. That 1 hour, 40 minute telephone interview is now on-line! It is broken up into 4 parts of about 6-8 megs each (22-30 minutes for each part).

Go to http://bios.tx0.org/ in order to download the .mp3's. On the interview you will hear Bil, Andy, myself, Cameron Kaiser, and Keith Henrickson.

My thanks to Bil and Andy for giving a most enlightening look into Commodore Business Machines, and thanks to all who came up with questions for the two engineers.

Good stuff!

Glad you like it.

By the way, if you have had any trouble downloading the files due to "exceeded bandwidth", I have been told that the system resets every day at 4 p.m. Pacific Time (00:00:00 UTC). After that time, you'll be able to download again.

Truly,
