Importance of preserving the stories from those who experienced such big tech and software advances
The Sony PlayStation Vita with its stunning OLED display where sales flopped
The cleverness of the dual screen display of the Nintendo DS
Drooling over modern crystal replacement cases for retro consoles

The original power supply on the C64 is another danger!
The video tour of Tony’s collection of retro gear
