  • How Big Is Too Big? (CRT TVs) - This Week In Retro 201
    2025/01/11

    For the first episode of 2025 we take a look at some of the BBC's Tomorrows World predictions from 30 years ago. What did they get right and wrong. We talk about how video game history can be different depending upon which angle you look at it. Then finally it's all about the CRT TV and would you want a monster of a set in your home?

    All this and more retro tech news in Dave's Briefs and we set a new Community Question Of The Week.

    This week we are sponsored by Sega Mania magazine. The new issue covers the second half of 1995 and finds out what is new for the Saturn and if the Mega Drive still has life left in it. Head on over to https://www.sega-mania.com/ and use the code TWIR10 to save on issue 8!

  • Desktop PCs Are Back! - This Week In Retro 197

    The beige PC is back! What started as a joke has become reality. A Windows developer has shared some secrets on how the Win 95 installer did things behind the scenes. An article about the fall of Game as a high street retailer leaves us wondering if games will ever be available as they once were.

    All this and more retro computing news plus the Community Question Of The Week.
