Yeah, they looked pretty good. 25 00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:03.880 Yeah, I felt kind of bad, but I didn't tell 26 00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:05.200 her how much it costs though, so. 27 00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:07.400 Oh you kind of kept battle. 28 00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:13.319 No, so I did get it and it's awesome. 29 00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:16.439 Yeah all right, So now what is the name of this? So, 30 00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:21.799 because let's face it, sean the nostalgia that we're seeing 31 00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:25.079 now of games, and you think about it, you go, oh, yeah, 32 00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:27.040 that was so much fun to play and I love that, 33 00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:30.760 And then you think, wait, that came out forty thirty, 34 00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:34.719 twenty years ago, but the nostalgia factor is still good 35 00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:37.439 and they're still great gaming that's available. 36 00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:40.280 So the Tendo sixty four came out in nineteen ninety six, 37 00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:42.239 so thirty years ago. So I was talking to a 38 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:44.359 friend of mine last night. I was like, man, this 39 00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:46.239 is just taking me back twenty years to when we 40 00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:47.480 used to play these in our bay, you know, in 41 00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:49.799 the base entry snow days, and goes, dude, that wasn't 42 00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.760 twenty years ago. I was like, wait, what, Oh yeah, 43 00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.400 it was almost thirty years ago, right, wow. So it's 44 00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:59.439 crazy to think that gaming has been a part of 45 00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:02.560 my life for that long. But you know, I started 46 00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:06.480 playing on original Nintendo. My mom played a lot of 47 00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.879 Zelda when I was growing up and drew her own maps. Wow, 48 00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:12.360 that kind of got my start there. And you know, 49 00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:14.879 then we bought a Nintendo, you know, a Nintendo Super Nintendo, 50 00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.680 and then a PlayStation, and then we kind of verged 51 00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.120 away from the sixty four ward. We kind of branched 52 00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:22.639 off with the PlayStation side of things into the Xbox 53 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:24.800 and stuff. And I didn't get into sixty four gaming 54 00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:27.360 because my cousin had one. It cut my friends had them, 55 00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:29.680 but I really wasn't into sixty four gaming then, it 56 00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.400 mostly just by proxy with my friends. I picked one 57 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.639 up a handful of years ago and started playing the 58 00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:38.199 old classics again. And then with the introduction of the 59 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:41.560 Nintendo Switch Online, you could buy the subscription for the 60 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.800 year and play game Boy games and Nintendo games and 61 00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:48.159 sixty four games, GameCube games, all that stuff on Nintendo Online. 62 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:50.280 But it's only if you have an active Internet connection, 63 00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:52.840 right when, don't you really realistically. 64 00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:53.280 These days nowadays? 65 00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:56.199 Yeah, So I bought an original sixty four console, fixed 66 00:02:56.199 --> 00:02:58.120 it up, made it work, and was playing on that 67 00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:01.400 for a while. Shelved it a decade ago. And then 68 00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:04.080 about a year ago, I saw the Analog three D. 69 00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.520 That's what it's called, called the Analog three D. Analog 70 00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:09.719 dot Co is the website. They make an Analog pocket 71 00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:11.960 which plays Gameboy games and stuff. But then they announced 72 00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:14.680 they were making a Nintendo sixty four. It runs it 73 00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.000 all hardware based, and I was like, you know, I 74 00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:18.879 didn't need it. I had my sixty four. If I 75 00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:20.919 wanted to play it, I didn't really wasn't into it, 76 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.919 like I wasn't super into ritual gaming again, like I 77 00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:27.280 was playing current games and Pat passed. And then I 78 00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:29.639 saw that they were restocking, like I was just looking 79 00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:31.280 it up because I was curious about it, and they 80 00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:33.599 happened to be restocking the next morning. So I was like, 81 00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:35.840 this is the can't be a coincidence that I thought 82 00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:36.919 about it and then it. 83 00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:39.680 Happened since yeah, yeah. 84 00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:40.919 So then I said an alarm. I talked to Caitlin 85 00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:42.680 that night and then I bought it the next morning 86 00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:45.280 it shipped. I think I got it early December. I 87 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:46.960 think like the third or fourth of December. 88 00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:48.919 Yeah, we had talked about it and you hadn't received 89 00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:49.599 it yet. 90 00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:51.680 Right then, and in that time I had dug out 91 00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:55.280 my controllers, try and I couldn't find any of my games. Still, 92 00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:56.560 you still couldn't. 93 00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:57.039 Find any of them. 94 00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:00.000 No, I don't know. I don't there somebody has them. 95 00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:01.960 I'm trying to figure out if a friend has them, 96 00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:04.159 if they got put in a box when I moved, 97 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:08.479 and I don't know they're missing. I have some manuals, 98 00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:10.360 I got the controllers. I had the actual sixty four, 99 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:13.080 just not the game, so they're somewhere. So I started 100 00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:15.319 I started paniccking because I was like, I'm gonna get 101 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:16.720 this thing and I'm gonna spend all this money and 102 00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:17.519 games to play. 103 00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.120 Yeah, there's no like games preloaded on it, like two 104 00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:20.399 or three. 105 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:23.240 You can't load ROMs on it. It's not like there's 106 00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:25.079 no way to play games except if you have the 107 00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.600 physical cards. I'm not gonna tell anybody where I bought them, 108 00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:31.040 but I started scrounging the internet and ended up buying 109 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:36.319 I bought five total games now right. I bought GoldenEye, 110 00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:41.759 Super Mario sixty four, Perfect Dark, Mario Kart, and Operative Time. 111 00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:44.319 Oh wow, those are all great games. 112 00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.000 Yeah, and the one that I want to talk about, 113 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.279 And I have a question for the collector I'm not 114 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:52.040 a collector, right, I play games, I don't collect them, 115 00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:55.439 but this one stirred a little bit of the collector 116 00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:57.639 bug in me, and I don't know what to do. 117 00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.160 On an auction site that I was on, I found 118 00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:04.839 a perfect dark box and that's all it said. It 119 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:06.680 didn't really say if there was a cart in it 120 00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:08.439 or anything. 121 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:09.160 Cardboard. 122 00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:11.279 Yes, I might have been buying the box.

I'm sure it's got a card 125 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:18.120 in it. Otherwise it would say just to the box. 126 00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:18.920 So I got it. 127 00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:21.439 Yeah, all right, we're gonna give it a give us 128 00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:22.040 a view of it. 129 00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:23.040 It's in the box. 130 00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.000 It is in the box though, so yeah, wow, that's 131 00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:26.920 the original box. 132 00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:30.839 That's like the original box.

There's a couple other games that are 170 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.360 way too expensive for me to get that are very 171 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.839 popular that I also played, but I'm not spending one 172 00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:13.920 hundred dollars or more for a cart at this point. 173 00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.079 Wow, for some of those and how much how much 174 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:19.079 were like when the original price in some of these 175 00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:22.279 games when they came out. Just give people an idea. 176 00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:23.720 Right, right, So they were still like back in the 177 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.680 back in the mid nineties, they were still fifty bucks 178 00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.399 for these games. I mean, with inflation and stuff like 179 00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:32.879 the you know, it's probably I probably play a little 180 00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.360 bit more than what I would have paid back then. 181 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:37.199 But yeah, you got to find them in good condition, right, 182 00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:40.560 You got to find them not beat up, not corroded, 183 00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:43.120 not fake, because there's a lot of like the more 184 00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:45.120 popular titles, there's a lot of fakes floating around. 185 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.879 Yeah, so I'm wondering, Sean, there's there's a website We've 186 00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:51.199 talked about it before, GOG that has a lot of 187 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:54.439 games that maybe we played, And I don't know if 188 00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:57.199 they ported some of the games that we played on 189 00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:01.240 cartridge or whatever or these consoles to this, But I mean, 190 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.079 is there a difference, Like, say, now with this device 191 00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:08.759 you've got that you're playing GoldenEye, which I got a 192 00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:10.199 chance to see some of the video when I was 193 00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:13.600 totally blown away. Is there a difference playing it there 194 00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:17.240 on that original kind of kind of feel that console, 195 00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:18.600 then playing it on GOG. 196 00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:21.759 They don't do console games. They mostly do PC games. 197 00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:25.279 You'd have to rohm or emulate console games like and 198 00:08:25.480 --> 00:08:28.279 there's a difference in playing the console the ROMs versus 199 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:29.199 an actual console. 200 00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:29.560 Yeah. 201 00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:31.959 And some people are you know, puritans when it comes 202 00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:34.080 to that, they'll only play on the OG console. Some 203 00:08:34.120 --> 00:08:36.799 people don't care. I'm indifferent, Like, I'll play them on 204 00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:39.440 a ROM if I have to, if I need to 205 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:42.080 or want to, Like playing them on Nintendo Switch Online, 206 00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:43.840 I don't think there's a difference playing it on Intend 207 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:46.679 Switch Online versus playing on the anlog TWD. I really 208 00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:49.799 can't feel a difference. The quality I think maybe better 209 00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.799 on this just because it's hardware based. It's not streaming, 210 00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:56.799 it's not from my switch, but it's still fun to play. 211 00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:58.960 So the other thing is I was a little disappointed 212 00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:01.519 in is apparently they did this with the with the 213 00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:04.399 analog pocket, which is like their game Boy version of 214 00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:08.919 their hardware game Boy version, is they released special editions. 215 00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:10.720 Oh so, I'm gonna show you a picture a D. 216 00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:12.679 All right, I can I can change this. 217 00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.240 Here, okay, all right, showing us on the video. 218 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:20.960 Much like the hardware side of the industry, a lot 219 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:23.559 of people mod they're in Nintendo sixty four's with colored 220 00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:28.120 shells analog three D. They're releasing eight different colors besides 221 00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:30.639 black or white. Right, and that came out two and 222 00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:32.000 a half weeks after I bought mine. 223 00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:36.159 Oh man, now this is the poet I know, right. 224 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:38.159 I would have waited and tried to get a colored 225 00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:41.559 one because these are cool, like the lime green, the turquoise, 226 00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:45.159 the purple, the red, the yellow, those are really cool pieces. 227 00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:47.000 So how does this happen with that? How would this 228 00:09:47.039 --> 00:09:48.600 hook up to your TV or monitor? 229 00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:49.000 HD? 230 00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:50.759 I oh nice, it's. 231 00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:53.320 Straight in HD's I've got it. I've got hooked up 232 00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:54.879 to my computer. Right now, so I can show you 233 00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:58.519 it's just now. God, A'll capture card HDMI in HD 234 00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:01.000 I out two monitors I can see and captured if 235 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:04.240 I want to. It works, it looks, it looks good, 236 00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:07.679 it feels good, it plays good. I'm using an original Control, 237 00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:13.159 original hardwired controller. It supports. It supports Bluetooth or wireless controllers. 238 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:17.360 So if you have the eight bit DO controllers or 239 00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:20.519 you have now, it doesn't work with the Nintendo Switch Online. 240 00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:23.440 Controllers like the ones I have for my switch don't work, 241 00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:26.720 so I can't connect those to my analog treaty, which 242 00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:29.840 is a bummer because I've got two sixty four controllers 243 00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:31.960 for my switch that I was expecting to be able 244 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:35.720 to use with this, it doesn't support that. Now, with 245 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:40.240 a blue Retro mod adapter, you could plug that in 246 00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.000 and then connect the switch the switch controllers to the 247 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:46.039 mod which then physically plugs into the device. 248 00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:47.559 Now, how do you get how do you get the 249 00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:51.000 games on this one? Because obviously with the then. 250 00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:54.440 Yeah, let me let me show you. Let me switch 251 00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:56.480 back over to my camera view here. 252 00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:59.440 All right, and you could watch this up on our 253 00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:01.840 YouTube page h or blog. You'll find you'll find it 254 00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:04.440 all there, uh as well if you want to see 255 00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:07.279 it now. This is the Analog three it's Analog three 256 00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:08.639 D is what they're called. 257 00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:11.200 Analog three D. Yeah, but it's spelled Analog is spelled 258 00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:14.759 the UK version with an own and e okayke. And 259 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:17.360 this is this is the box right, So it's got 260 00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:20.279 the four controller ports on the front. The cart goes 261 00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:21.200 slides in the just like it. 262 00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:23.320 It looks just like yeah it does. 263 00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:26.679 And it's got uh USB so you can plug your 264 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:29.799 controllers in USB if you want to to charge them. Uh. 265 00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:31.919 The operating system and everything runs off of an SD 266 00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:35.080 car here on the back right, HDMI and USBC charging 267 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:36.000 USBC C power. 268 00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:38.519 So it's so cool. That is really neat. And how 269 00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:39.240 much that looks? 270 00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:41.840 How much was that if you don't mind with shipping 271 00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:44.679 and everything. I think it was like just over three hundred. 272 00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:46.879 All right, And then you got to be prepared if 273 00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:49.840 you don't have the games, whether you're going online like 274 00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:53.720 Sean has found somewhere, even Bookman's that's here in. 275 00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:56.440 I mean, I went scoured all the stores around here, 276 00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:02.720 half priced books, discreplay game stores. I was actually kind 277 00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:05.200 of surprised. I went into a store here I hadn't 278 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.039 been into and I was like, do you have any 279 00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:09.120 sixty four games? He goes, we don't do digital gaming here. 280 00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:12.279 I was like, Nintendo sixty four games, we don't do 281 00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:15.799 digital gaming here. I was like, he was kind of 282 00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.159 rude about it. I was, yeah, okay, thanks, I'm just 283 00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:21.720 gonna look around. I guess yeah, and I walked out. 284 00:12:21.879 --> 00:12:25.039 Thrift stores actually can sometimes you can find a good 285 00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:27.879 find at a thrift store when it comes to that, 286 00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:31.080 Like White Elephant might even have them from time to time. 287 00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:32.759 But yeah, I mean you kind of got to just 288 00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:33.879 get lucky at those places. 289 00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:36.440 So yeah, yeah, exactly. Oh wow. 290 00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:38.720 Yeah. So, like I said, I got, you know, GoldenEye, 291 00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:46.159 Mario sixty four, Zelda Ocreative Time, Mario Kart. And now 292 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:47.639 for those listeners. 293 00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:50.639 Who were thinking, okay, we're talking about these some older games. 294 00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:54.120 That means you know, eight bit, you know, blotchy blog, 295 00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:57.080 like maybe it doesn't have that good look. I don't 296 00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:00.000 know if you can fire up GoldenEye. Well, well we're 297 00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:04.480 on the video just to show you the video gameplay 298 00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:07.919 of this unit from Analog three D. Actually this looks 299 00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:10.279 really good, and if you remember. 300 00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:12.240 This is so if you're watching the stream. Right, this 301 00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:15.759 is the old games still because it uses the RAM 302 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:18.919 to store the saves, it doesn't have to store it 303 00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:21.679 with a battery. Save files are still on these games 304 00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:23.000 from whoever owned these previously. 305 00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:25.080 Really, oh wow. 306 00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:27.279 There's a complete Yeah, there's a complete game with almost 307 00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:29.759 every mission completed in here already because somebody whoever owned 308 00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:31.720 this game before. So I built a new one and 309 00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:34.320 was playing it. But so yeah, I was just playing. 310 00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:37.039 I just finished the level right before we were you know, 311 00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:38.879 we were talking. So right now I have to get 312 00:13:38.919 --> 00:13:41.600 the goldennikey and leave, and I got to photograph the 313 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:44.879 main video screen. So the gameplay is fun. I'm just 314 00:13:44.919 --> 00:13:46.960 playing off my screen, so it doesn't it probably doesn't 315 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:48.559 look the best to me right now, but you're seeing 316 00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:50.519 a direct output of the capture card that. 317 00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:53.720 Still looks pretty amazing. Now, pires Brosdon. Actually did he 318 00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:54.480 do the voice? 319 00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:57.720 I guess there's no there's no voice. 320 00:13:57.879 --> 00:13:57.960 No. 321 00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:00.000 I mean there's some cut screens, but it's there's no 322 00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:04.120 oh real uh screens or anything. But the gameplay is 323 00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.360 really good. Yeah, he's gonna hit the alarm up. 324 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:12.559 Up, it's uh, it's it's James Bond stuff. So yeah, 325 00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:15.879 well back then, we probably not for the kids, you know, 326 00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:18.120 it was for the grown ups. But it's still fun 327 00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:18.759 to watch. 328 00:14:19.080 --> 00:14:20.960 Yeah, this is like stuff that my parents probably didn't 329 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:22.360 let it like it. That's probably why I didn't know it. 330 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:25.519 Now what you're playing with a controller, right, I'm a mouse. 331 00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:28.519 I'm a mouse keyboard guy, you know, And I guess 332 00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:30.720 I gotta I'd have to get used to that. Again. 333 00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:34.320 It's still pretty. It looks like it flows really well, 334 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:36.480 not a lot of lag, I mean. 335 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:39.360 That's what I'm saying. Like the Analog three D was 336 00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.279 built on hardware and it's over clocked, so it actually 337 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:44.279 plays some of the games at a at a better 338 00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:48.120 bit rate or a better processing speed, so they actually 339 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:50.559 are smoother. Hey, I picked up the Goldenike. 340 00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:52.919 Oh id that guy that's the that that he did 341 00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:55.240 that big pose in there when he Yeah, I remember that. 342 00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:59.039 Yes, Boris, Boris, I gotta photog. I gotta photograph something 343 00:14:59.039 --> 00:15:00.120 and I'm not sure how to do. 344 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:01.759 Does this make you want to see the Golden Eye 345 00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:04.759 movie again?

We mentioned you know, thrift stores. We 372 00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:15.320 had a good question from al this week who wanted 373 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:19.919 to know some tips about buying a used computer. He's 374 00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:22.240 getting a new computer. It's gonna be a used computer. 375 00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:24.759 He told me the specs. I'll tell you one thing 376 00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:26.639 that made me say, yeah, get it. That's a good deal. 377 00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:28.759 He wanted to get a high He wanted to get 378 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:33.279 a gaming machine, not because he games, but because he 379 00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:35.679 believes that a gaming machine is going to have the 380 00:16:35.759 --> 00:16:41.159 highest quality graphics, the highest you know processing. You know 381 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:43.440 it's gonna have it's gonna have good specs on it, 382 00:16:43.720 --> 00:16:45.200 so you're gonna be able to do stuff. And he 383 00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:47.279 said he doesn't game, but he just figured that the 384 00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:50.039 gaming system is gonna be pretty good. And he said 385 00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:52.519 he was looking at this Dell system. I want to 386 00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:54.759 say it was a thirty eight to forty, might have 387 00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:57.679 been thirty four eighty. I'm going off my memory, but 388 00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:00.440 he was going through the specs. He said it was 389 00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:03.720 an I nine processor that was running Windows eleven Pro, 390 00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:05.559 so he didn't have to worry about that. He's got 391 00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:08.759 a Windows ten machine at home he's afraid to use, 392 00:17:08.960 --> 00:17:11.799 you know, rufous or it doesn't qualify for the upgrade. 393 00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:15.000 So he didn't want to lose anything on there. So 394 00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:18.200 he's going to start fresh with this. Had a had 395 00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:22.079 two four had two two terabyte drives in it, right, 396 00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:24.720 So I thought, okay, that's good, that's pretty good. You know, 397 00:17:24.839 --> 00:17:27.279 they're not as they're not as you know M two's, 398 00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:31.759 which are great, they're SSDs. But then he said it 399 00:17:31.920 --> 00:17:37.559 had one hundred and twenty eight gigabytes of memory. And 400 00:17:39.400 --> 00:17:41.839 that's what got me because I said, right now, the 401 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:46.079
