Exploring Early Game Demos and Community Hangouts

As the Commodore Amiga celebrates its 40th birthday, we hear stories from original developers Dale Luck, Jeff Porter, Andy Finkel, and others. Recorded live at VCF East in New Jersey, our Dan gets the story of this legendary machine direct from the people who made it happen.

Thanks to Amiga Bill for recording the interview, and joining us for the news this week!
