The Guru Meditates. For a special bonus episode, Dan sits down with previous guests and friends of the show Jeff Berg and Andrew Welyczko to talk about their favorite deceased computer company: Commodore! Commodore products were an integral part of our early computing lives, and we discuss the highs, the lows, and the bizarre that defined Jack Tramiel’s legacy. Why did Apple succeed at the vertical integration game and Commodore crashed and burned? We talk all the details. Jeff discusses his time working for Commodore’s ad agency, Andrew remembers Deluxe Paint, and Dan cares way too much about a game where you give fuzz people crystals. Originally recorded on March 7, 2020 Show Notes:  The Amiga’s custom chips The Amiga Graphics Archive Brian Bagnall’s History of Commodore book series  Jeremy Reimer, AKA LordBaldrick’s History of the Amiga series The Stevie Commercial that Jeff’s employer produced The Incredible Musical Keyboard for C64 GEOS PageStream NewTek Video Toaster 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast The Guru Meditation on Youtube Retro Man Cave  ThunderScan Bill Herd: Tales from Inside Commodore  Follow Us: Our show is produced by Nathan Mace (antiwraith on Ars)and edited by Dan Vincent.
