Barbi superestar…

Published by El Bucanero under Humor

Taken from a C source code from 1994:

My sister and I were driving along the other day when she asked me, what
would I like for my computer.
I thought long and hard about it, and came up with the following
hypothesis. When a girl gets a Barbie doll, she then wants the extra
ballgown for the doll, then the hairbrush, and the car, and the house,
and the friends etc.
When a guy gets a computer, he wants the extra memory, the bigger
hard drive, the maths co-pro, the better motherboard, the latest software,
and the bigger monitor etc.
I told my sister all of this, and finished up with : “So as you can
see, computers are Barbie dolls for MEN!
She called me a chauvinist. And hit me. Hard.

Back from the grave…

Published by El Bucanero under Dreamcast

Well, I’m back from the grave!… Over a year has passed without doing any development for the mighty Dreamcast!

So I’m posting this note to let everybody knows that I’ve just released my new “VMU Backup CD”!

I guess you’re asking “and what is it?”… in short, its the greatest VMU save collection ever made! (what a humble definition, uh?)

But its not just +3000 vmu saves for over 300 DC games, because everything is packed with this pretty neat VMU app that I’ve
coded specially for this disc, so you can browse all the games, see all the saves and read the description of each save.

So, go and grab this 10 Mb selfboot CDI (made with Padus DiscJuggler 4.1) and have fun!
