David has finished the rough edit of we have been calling "Sonic versus Mario", a look into Sega's assault on the US market with the Genesis. He's been working on this for quite a while and I like that he focuses a lot on the business/marketing side of things. Video will hopefully be ready for release in the next month or two.
RoW3 editing: I have one minute of audio editing done. No video. But thanks to generous help from someone who knows Davinci Resolve a heck of a lot better than I do, the audio quality is probably the best I have ever had to work with thanks to some custom audio filters.
As a side project (since I don't have enough of those), I am working on combining IBM PC 1-3 as well as Fall of OS/2 into a single 3 hour+ supercut. One of the benefits of this is that I can finally fix the awful audio levels I inadvertently wound up with on IBM PC Part 3.
Unfortunately I am still trying to figure out how to clean up the audio, and ideally strip out the background music from parts 1-2 (created and edited before I realized I didn't HAVE to have background music).
Thanks to the failure of several external hard drives, plus a certain amount of absent mindedness on my part with regards to where I backed up files, I no longer have (or can't find) the original project files for IBM PC parts 1-3. IBM PC 1 and 2 were also edited in Premiere, not Resolve <deleted 6000 word rant on how much Premiere sucks>, so even if I had the files, it wouldn't do me much good.
So I'm not sure when I'll have it sorted out, but its coming.
I got a comment recently asking about Rise of Excel part 2. I am actively writing it and it will probably be released on retrotechreads.substack.com/ in the next few weeks. I will probably make it a video sooner rather than later, as its not overly long (I'm not done writing it yet, but I am guessing it will be 20-30 mins) and probably won't take me more than a couple months to edit once recorded.
Where exactly it will fall in my priority list for videos probably mostly depends on if I get burned out on editing Rise of Windows 3 and need a break.
Another Boring Topic
Minor channel update from Jonathan:

I think that's all for now :)
Appreciate you all!
