Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Silicon Chip Interview at Electronex

===============================
From Australian Electronics Newsgroup:

On 14-Sep-12 1:23 PM, David L. Jones wrote:
Some might be interested in a quick interview video I did with Nicholas Vinen and Leo Simpson from SC at the Elctronex show:

===============================

As usual, nice work Dave.

Was bad timing when Leo Simpson walked into the booth, as it meant that the colour MaxiMite didn't get any coverage as a project in your video interview.

However it was interesting that he was talking about a revamped Silicon Chip web site with a mechanism to view the magazine on line, the same as it appears in print.

There are a lot of comments on The Back Shed Forum, about the current digital edition of Silicon Chip magazine, all of them negative I'm afraid:

I do hope SC get it right, for themselves, their readers, and their advertisers.

I believe it really could be a world beater.

It is possible that Dave didn't realized that the next was a Color Maximite Computer...

What about sending one for a proper review (from an engineer point of view) ??? Would love to see the comments on his youtube channel/forum/blog...Edited by vasi 2012-09-17

My only experience with Dave to date on sending an item for review:
I sent him a MaxiMite SM1, when we first produced them, and got good feed back, but basically is was negative regarding the concept, and no video review.

After this, I started a thread with a view to getting Dave involved in the MaxiMite, and Dave joined up as a member. I had hoped to convince him of the worth of the MaxiMite.

Make up your own mind about what he said:

It won't be me that sends him a colour Maximite as I don't have one to send and have never seen one in action. I hope to soon, when Mick produces his UBW32-CMM add-on board.

BTW. I enjoy Dave's videos, but I can't help on this one.
