About the title, I address this on page 1, but thought I'd address it here too. I used the format as I loved the 100 facts you didn't know about animals, knights🐑, space etc as a kid, and decided to go in that direction.
Ultimate Commodore fans will know 80% of these facts, the average Commodore fan 40% etc but I hope everyone will enjoy the content, including the 500 facts, datasheets for each Commodore model, and infographics throughout. 📊
You could use it as a challenge, did you know all the facts, 300/500 etc. 🤔
Bundle available commodoremuseum.gumroad.com/… USD15 for The Vault & 500 Things You Didn't Know About Commodore.
I never watched Mad Max: Fury Road until tonight. Listened to the All The Right Movies podcast first — their insights and background made it sound epic.
It was epic. If you want a good laugh with guys who really know movies, check out this episode.👇

Had a bit of fun destroying a few websites with destroy.spritefusion.com/ which would you destroy first?
This Amiga game sparked a real lawsuit over a review score.
All Terrain Racing, developed and published by Team17, hit the Commodore Amiga (and CD32) on May 8, 1995. Most magazines liked it, but Amiga Power gave it a savage 38%. Jonathan Nash called it “the dullest, clumsiest, sloppiest overhead racer I’ve ever played, Overdrive included,” and dismissed the whole thing as rubbish.
That score became the flashpoint in a long-running feud. Team17 fired back with a libel action, demanding the reviews be retracted and the issue pulled from sale. The lawsuit went nowhere. After it collapsed, they blacklisted the magazine entirely—no more review copies—and even pressured sister titles not to share theirs.
The bad blood had been building for years. In earlier games Team17 had already taken shots at Amiga Power, naming the worst AI opponents after the staff, hiding a dig at their review policy behind the “AMIGAPOWER” cheat in Alien Breed II, and—in Alien Breed: Tower Assault—naming a murdered pilot after Jonathan Nash with the line “Nash is dead.”
Was Amiga Power right to be that harsh, or did Team17 overreact with the lawsuit?
