- This is our Jay Miner Commodore Amiga 1000 Tribute Exhibit at VCF East 2019. Bill and Anthony team up with Team Atari for the 40th anniversary of Atari 8 bit home computers. Jay Miner is father of the Amiga , but was also a key player in designing the Atari 8 bit 400/800 series computers so our exhibit tells people a bit about Jay Miner as well as his history with Atari and Amiga. Bill set up a wild photo booth that allows people to get their picture taking with Jay Miner using a Commodore Amiga computer and DCTV. Anthony brought a very rare Atari 800XL teleprompter for everyone to check out. This video may be a bit light on information, but it is heavy on fun!

you're very respectful of jay's memory - i have a feeling that he would love what the guru meditation do for the amiga community. lovely tribute exhibit
Aw, thank you Pishbot. Appreciate those words very much. We love Jay Miner and would be very honored if he liked our channel
Great stuff as always! Next year bring a bunch of AmigaLoves stickers and plaster the Ataris with them... 😂😂🤣🤣
Ha ha, good idea! As you can see Team Atari vandalized Anthony ;-)
My two favorite computers of all time, the Atari 800 and the Amiga... Jay Miner thank you.
My two favorites as well!
Come get your picture with Amiga Bill, oh and some guy with a beard too.
Seriously though its fantastic to see old hardware used like this rather than just playing games. Keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing more soon.
Ha ha, thanks CRG. My original idea was to cut out my head, but Team Atari said I should cut out the photobomber in the middle instead. I think it was a good idea
Amiga Raiders storming the VCF! Yay!
Anthony, i would love to see more footage about the 800XL teleprompter.
Ha ha! Yeah I would like to have had more info about the teleprompter too. Maybe Anthony can get it to work next time! OH! Ha ha
Jay is a legend, he accomplished way more than Steve Wozniak, Jobs and co. I saw your other Amievent 1990 video also, great content! Binge watching all your videos.
Thanks so much! I hope you enjoyed them
o_O invading Atari area with Commodore kit... AND unrolling a wallpaper where 15yr old Bill shakes hands with JM!!! YMMD!!! ^_^
Ha ha, glad we brightened up you day Alex. Thanks for watching and the kind words!
The concept to use old camera or old camera effect is amazing, plus the mix between 80 and 19, you should use it on all your videos
Thanks Tony. That is actual Super 8mm film . We would love to shoot more of it in the future!
Great video guys! I bought an Amiga 1000 the year they came out. Had it for many years. Thanks for the wonderful memories. 😍👍
Awesome Steve! Thanks for sharing your story. The 1000 is such a classic. But the 500 was my first. I am so glad to have a 1000 now though.
Amazing video! Loved the Super8 footage 🕹 ⌨
Thanks Obraxis! Yeah, the Super 8 is really special. We will probably release a video with all the Super 8 from VCF East
Gotta love that photo booth!
It was a silly idea, but everyone got a kick out of it and it sparked some great conversations about Jay Miner. So much fun!
@@TheGuruMeditation silly ideas are usually the best ones in my opinion 😀
@@DomedagsPoeten Werd!
Loved the video. Loads of energy going on there. Representing the Amiga proudly. I love the way you both provide that continuity back to the origin of the Amiga and its founder. The amiga has always been intrinsically about the people who love it.
Well said Jonathan!. Thank you for the very kind words. We appreciate your comment very much!
It's always a happy point of my day when you two drop a new video, loving it guys!
Aw, thanks Pete! This is so nice to hear. Glad you enjoy our antics.
Had the notification when I was 4 hours away from home. Seemed like the longest drive ever. Worthy of the wait however. Thanks both. And to Jay. Long may his memory live on.
ha ha, aw thanks for sharing your story. I am glad it was worth the wait! It is a short video, but a fun one. It is tricky to put on a good exhibit and interact with everyone as well as make a video about it, but it is worth it!
The Guru Meditation - always nice to see you guys about and videos like this always makes me happy. Makes me wish I was in America rather than the UK.
I also really appreciate the sense of humour you both show.
@@a500 We like to have a good time! The UK is a great place for Amiga though. Check out SWAG user group. Cool people!
Superb ! Hbd Jay miner ! Awesome collection my man ! AmiiigAaaaaa !!!
Thanks Jean! Jay Miner is the best!
Lovely, lovely video! Really enjoyed it! Looking forward for more ;)
Thanks so much Pixel! Love your channel as well. We have been following yours for years. Keep up the great work!
@@TheGuruMeditation Thank you so much! You guys are a true inspiration! Cheers!
Another great video boys, keep up the great work. Amiga4ever!!
Thanks Fretter! This is more of a fun one, than informative one, but we like fun!
I havent gotten to play NHL with you in like two years man! Loved the video.
SETH!!! Thanks dude. Let's change that. I never got NHL 19, but I will get NHL 20. I am guessing it comes out very soon? Yeah man, I am dying to play. Been way too long
It is funny, that when we today look back. We see the clear connection that Atari and Commodore had. That connection was Jay and Amiga. Sure Commodore got the Amiga in the end, yet the Amiga just tied the history of both companies together in so many way's.
True and well said!
@@TheGuruMeditation Thanks. 👍 And the irony is that once it all shifted, Jack "changed boat" as well. Once again a fun and in some way ironic thing. I dont know. They were both inovating companies, putting new and inovating tech, in the hands of the average joe. And in the end, it wss the copy cat (Ms and Apple) that won the master race.
You guys are on fire! Amazing stuff.
Thanks Bbuggediffy!
Thank you👍🏻
You are welcome, thank for watching!
I love how you make everything fun. I bet your user group meetings are a hoot.
The meetings are a blast! This is just a hobby, so fun is our #1 priority !
it is so nice to see you!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Solid good times!
Lots of Amiga Love at VCF !
Good job guys ! I enjoy it much !
Thanks R Type!
I'm sorry I didn't know about this. Jay was such a nice guy.
Jay was a class act. He is missed
Fantastic video, great people.
Need more data about the teleprompter.
Thanks Vincent! Yeah I would like more info about the prompter too. Maybe next time Anthony will be able to get it to work - OH!
I want a picture with Jay and Bill the kid too :-(
Excellent video like always, even the Ataris look nice!!! o_0
Ha ha, thanks Cotter. I think I can arrange for that photo! There will be a truckload of Atari in our next video.
Ahh yes!
Yeah baby!
you guys rock!
Thank you so much!
As an Atari fan,I think of the Amiga as an Atari,too.
It kind of is since 2 of the 3 original people are former Atari employees who had a big part in the Atari 8 bit design
I am a very passionate Amiga Fan, from the start! I am so glad to meet you and to see that there r still many fans around! Please do you know how many Amiga-Fans are still in USA and how to start making amiga Story great again?
Thanks Mark! There are still quite a few fans here. We have our user group in NY, and I know there are user groups in TX, and CA as well. Also have CommVex and AmiWest shows. Also the Amigos podcast, 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast, and Pintz & Amiga are all USA based
yuhuhhhhhh!amigaaaaa !
Whoooo!!!
You're getting your photo taken at AmiExpo! You should dig up some of the old Amuse members and officers!
Yeah, I would love to connect with some of them especially if they are still interested in Amiga
@@TheGuruMeditation Joe Lowery would know, if the links in his bio work! www.yggdrasilink.com
The AMIGA 2000 also included UNIX SYSTEM V.
Oh neat, I wasn't aware of that thanks!
This was almost like a looong teaser! ;-) :-P Should be 10 parts at least! ;-)
Ha ha, thank Roar! I am nervous about the next video because there is no Amiga in it. I hope people will like it though. Curt has amazing stuff and great information
@@TheGuruMeditation I like videos without Amiga in them, but I LOVE video with Amiga! ;-) So no worries concering me at least! ;-)
@@roartjrhom4932 Ha ha! Well said my man!
Anthony, you should get some stickers "Commodore Inside" with a 6502 in the center of a swirling logo, and give to Atari and Apple II owners. (similar to the ole Intel Inside stickers).
LOL he should!
Funny to think that the father of the Amiga left Atari to work for Commodore, and the father of The C64 (And Commodore) left Commodore to work for Atari... 🤷♂️
That's the truth! It is like all one family...of sorts
🧡💚💙💜
Jay is the GOAT ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍
👍😎🤓👍
Thanks!
6:00 Hey ! What's that divine music beginning to play ?? I want it !

LOL, I think you are right!

Yep, it is actually a teleprompter
but the amiga 1000 follow the design of the atari 800 , in a fact
Yep it did. Many people don't realize its real roots
when are those sweet joysticks for sale ?? I'd like to get one..................
I understand the plan is to have them ready in the fall of this year 2019
@@TheGuruMeditation Ok do you know if we buy them from the vintage computer website or somewhere else ?
@@raymoreton3184 I don't know, but the news will be here for sure vintagecomputerssociety.blogspot.com
Wait a minute..... Atari? Lol
Yep!
well again get the information right ... 12bit is photo realistic ,and its not 4,096 ..The desktop got more then that . It got 10bit ... Lets do the math 32,768 Honor Jay zright
You guys look like typical amiga users, well chubby budy is actually Amiga And ST user mixed specie... Ahh.. how can I say ? Happy faces no frustrations feelings accomplished self realized and in charge without arrogance and bitterness that PC users radiate ! Cheers !
Thanks Mar! We love Amiga most, but appreciate all the retro machines. As for our bodies, who has time to exercise when there are so many new Amiga games to be played? ;-)
