K-man Chronicles

Hi, I'm an Aussie who plays around with retro computers/consoles, retro/modern video games, and anything else that's related to that kind of stuff.

I've been gaming since the Apple IIe. Collecting since 68k Macs could be picked up for almost nothing down at the tip.

Join me as I muck around with all this tech and games from way back to the present. Getting reminded of computers/consoles/arcades from my past and discovering new things.

Happy 40th to the Amiga! David John Pleasance gave the keynote at last weekend's Canberra Vintage Computer Exhibition / VCF Down Under. One of the senior executives of Commodore, he talks about the history of the company, Amiga history, and the new Commodore.

PAX Aus 2024 was another great weekend! While I work on the #PAXAus video for this channel (and recover from this bug I caught) here’s a vlog of my time in Melbourne. It’s got highlights from my IRL streams in PAX, as well as some food, travel, etc. All with low energy (fully sick) commentary 😁 🤧

Canberra Vintage Computer Exhibition 2024 on the weekend was great!  Fortunately I did a local recording of the day's seminars livestream because unfortunately the stream wasn't always stable, due to variable mobile internet reception. Sorry to anyone who was trying to watch it and those who might have had "going live" spam.

The recoding is now uploaded. I'll be editing up better individual recordings of each session, but until then... https://youtu.be/W3vvrOkcUHo

Hi, I was guided through the Destiny 2 dungeon, Prophecy, by Aki and Fam on my new gameplay channel. If you've been wondering if I'm still uploading modern gameplay videos, would love it you check out ‪@kman_aus_gaming‬ and subscribe. Been uploading those videos there so that my main channel can be more focused on retro stuff.
