Title: hello CPC (after a decade of lurking...)

Hello,

It seems I've been lurking here for nearly 10 years!! I guess I should say hello.

I am a big fan of z80 computers, I started when I was 9 with an Amstrad Spectrum (black) because I thought it looked cooler than the c64 my dad wanted me to get.

I have a CPC6128 with a colour monitor that I love. I recently installed PARADOS and made a video about it here... [size=78%]https://youtu.be/waQInQv7Nu0 (https://youtu.be/waQInQv7Nu0)[/size] which I posted about of facebook, sparking quite some debate!!

Actually there a quite a few CPC videos on the channel. I've been trying to perfect filming the CRT monitor.

I also love the Cambridge z88, zx spectrum and have about 7 z80 computers, not including gamesboys!

Thanks for having me!!

Well! The discussion was about if Parados is now pointless now, because of the Gotek.

To paraphrase, most thought parados was still worthwhile, but there were a few strong opinions about it being 'obsolete'
