1982–1985: Der Commodore 64 erobert die Computerbranche.

Zahlreiche Entwickler, Publisher, Vermarkter und Software-Pioniere der frühen 1980er Jahre erzählen von ihren Anfängen in der Spieleindustrie und beantworten detaillierte Fragen zu ihren prägenden Jahren mit dem C64. Die REDO-Reihe versammelt insgesamt 64 bislang unveröffentlichte Interviews – mit einem Schwerpunkt auf USA & Japan (Band 1) sowie Kanada & Europa (Band 2) – und zeichnet so eine lebendige Oral History der Heimcomputer-Revolution.

Eine Oral History der COMMODORE-Pioniere

Der italienische Videospiel-Forscher Andrea Pachetti legt mit diesem Werk sein Debüt vor. Über zehn Jahre hat er Visionärinnen, Macherinnen und Produzent*innen dieser turbulenten Ära aufgespürt und zusammengebracht. Begleitet wird das Buch von einführenden Worten zweier Branchengrößen: John Romero und Chris Crawford (Gründer der GDC). Reich bebilderte Hintergrundtexte zeigen die Frühgeschichte der Games-Industrie und ihrer Gründungsunternehmen. Innovatoren wie Paul Norman (Aztec Challenge, Forbidden Forest), Jeff Bruette (Wizard of Wor), David Crane (Ghostbusters, Decathlon), Dane Bigham (Choplifter) oder David S. Maynard (Worms) berichten von den konkreten Weichenstellungen, die den Commodore 64 zur Spielemaschine machten – und warum diese Jahre für einen einzelnen Hersteller in den USA und Japan so außergewöhnlich waren.

Exklusive Gespräche mit Branchen-Veteranen

Andrew Kaluzniacki, Bruce Robinson, Chris Crawford, Chris Warling, Chuck Benton, Dane Bigham, David Crane, David Lundberg, David Martin, David S. Maynard, Douglas Carlston, Harry Briley, Hitoshi Suzuki, Jeff Bruette, Jerry W. Jewell, John Marvin, John Romero, Judy Braddick, Ken Madell, Ken Williams, Louis Ewens, Michael Crick, Michael J.

Über IT-Ingenieure und Game-Maker

Wir begleiten Unternehmerinnen in eine noch unformierte Verlagswelt und erleben die Zeit, in der Kassetten zu rauschen und Disketten zu klackern begannen. Während Commodore an einer eigenen Software-Bibliothek arbeitete und Arcade-Erlebnisse ins Wohnzimmer brachte, versuchten zahllose Gründerinnen ihr Glück auf den genial konstruierten Maschinen – ihre ikonischen Pixelwelten und Ports wurden zu heutigen Klassikern.

Branchenprofile und „More Bytes“

Zu jedem Interview gibt es ein Branchenprofil mit den wichtigsten Arbeiten in Tabellenform. Ein Navigationssystem im Buch verweist auf weitere Informationen, Artikel-Links und Lesetipps – ideal für Recherche und Studium.

Mit einem Who’s-Who klassischer 8-Bit-Publisher

Zurück zu den Ursprüngen des Commodore 64

REDO FROM START führt zurück in die Zeit, als Commodore die Branche dreimal erschütterte – mit PET 2001, VIC-20 und C64 – und lässt den Optimismus der frühen 1980er in Zeitzeugen-Berichten und Fotodokumenten neu aufleben. Mit rund 800 Abbildungen, zahlreichen Features, Profilen und begleitenden Artikeln ist dieses umfangreiche, tief recherchierte Werk gleichermaßen spannend für Einsteigerinnen und Expertinnen der Computer- und Games-Geschichte.

Steam traper
Color: White
​I really love this steam mop. It cleans my floors perfectly and is very easy to use, making my weekly cleaning routine much faster. The steam power is impressive and it does a fantastic job of removing tough dirt without needing extra chemicals. ​The versatility is also a huge plus for me. Being able to detach it to use as a handheld steamer makes it perfect for cleaning hard-to reach areas or tight corners around the house. It is definitely a great and practical purchase for anyone looking for a deep clean.

I love my steam cleaner. I don't refer to as the steam mop because it does so much more.
Style: PowerFresh Steam Mop
This product works wanders. Not only does it come with the steam mop it also has 10 accessories included. It picks up the dirt like no other mop I have ever had. The accessories are a important part. It comes with a squeegee my mirrors and windows have never looked so clear and to think it is only being cleaned with steam no chemicals. The windows look like they do not have a pane of glass anymore. I have used the accessory that cleans around the sink and my I was actually disgusted with what the steam cleaner blew out around the handle It was stuff that you could not see with a naked eye and it left my spout actually shining like I had just purchased it. The steam mop itself is absolutely wonderful. We have used it and let me tell you that after cleaning the floor to walk on the floor barefoot it feels so clean. To think that just steam has been able to clean my entire house is just amazing. I have breathing issues so to use this chemical and that chemical was just a waste of my time and money. I wished that I would have invested in this steam mop before I look back and think of how much money I would have saved and the amount of time I spent picking out the right products just makes cringe. I do not have any pets so as far as the aspect of hair and smells I cannot make any statement about. Why did I purchase this particular unit is because it has all the features that I am looking for it works on hardwood, tile, I have vinyl in my kitchen and it cleans it like a charm. Plus lets not forget all the accessories. I was able to clean my entire kitchen even the stove the steam just releases stuck on hard food like you would not believe. It cleaned my entire bathroom the crevice's around my toilet the sink crevice's the grime that soap film leaves in your shower unit, leaves your mirrors looking spotless no streaks. And the floor is super clean. All without any chemicals. If my unit should ever quit working I would replace with this model if available or a similar unit if I have no choice. I really have no negatives about my steam cleaner. If I was to give any negative comment it would be how the cup attaches to the handle for storage the cup seems to fall of the handle easily. The second thing would be the size of the accessories I wished that they had larger attachments the squeegee could have been wider to clean a larger area the attachment it came with is perfect for bathroom mirrors but when it comes to the house windows it takes much longer time to get that job done. Those two things are petty things that is able to be pushed aside when comparing if this is the model for you.

REDEMPTION! A Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop that WORKS!!
Style: PowerFresh Steam Mop
Although very optimistic about this purchase, after following the instructions TO THE LETTER, and only using distilled water, it failed to produce steam after only one use. How disappointing! I DO NOT recommend this product at all. Accordingly, I am sending it back for a refund. I will, most likely, order a HAAN steam cleaner to replace this Bissell failure. UPDATE #1: I posted the above review several hours ago after trying to use my Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop for only the second time. Of course, as I explained above, the steamer failed to work, prompting me to request a return shipping label for a refund; however, before packing the unit up, I looked online for possible fixes to my problems and came across this U-Tube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz8OvV30sHM I tried the half-CLR / half-Distilled Water mixture (poured directly into the water reservoir) and let it sit for approximately three hours. Upon turning on the unit to see if it would make steam …. NOTHING …. but wait! …. after trying for several second without success, I (as they did in the video) shook the steamer from side to side quite forcefully and … BLAMMO …. a strong burst of steam suddenly came exploding from the steam mop head and it began functioning absolutely perfectly, as if nothing was ever wrong. I immediately powered the steam mop down and promptly emptied the water reservoir of the CLR mixture, rinsed the reservoir out good, then refilled the reservoir with clean, fresh distilled water. Afterwards, I was able to mop my entire tiled kitchen, tiled hallways, and tiled bathrooms with nary a hitch. The Bissell Steam Mop operated exactly as it was designed. In retrospect, now that I see how the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop operates when it is working properly, I realize that the first time I used the steam mop, the steamer was not putting out the proper amount of steam. Obviously, there was a clog in the unit when I unboxed it, when lends me to believe that Amazon shipped me a unit that had been returned. I come to that conclusion based on the fact that the box the Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop arrived in from Amazon was a plain brown cardboard box, unlike one you would expect from a manufacturer. While I was at Sears yesterday, I looked at some Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mops that were displayed for sale and (unlike the box I received from Amazon) the boxes were very colorful with bold pictures of the steam mop proudly displayed on each side. Quite a difference! I'm going to keep the return label that I downloaded from Amazon's website for at least a couple of weeks since I may still very well return it. It kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth that Amazon (to my belief) sent me a used/returned unit. I will give it another try or two before I decide whether or not to return it. However, I WILL upgrade my rating, just slightly (to 3 Stars), because the Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop DID do a beautiful job on my floors after it was flushed with whatever debris/gunk was clogging the steamer flow tubes. Indeed I was VERY impressed with the overall simplicity of operation, the amount of steam that contacted the floor, and the finished cleanliness of the finished floors. Quite nice! Recommended … but with caution! UPDATE #2: Okay …. it's official … the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop is a piece of CRAP! Today I attempted to use it for the third time and, AGAIN, it would not operate. It required yet another dose of CLR before the steamer mechanism came to life. Accordingly, I am reducing my review to only one star, but that's only because I can't give it ZERO stars. NOT RECOMMENDED!!! UPDATE #3: August 22, 2015 …. Today I was at Sears in Savannah, GA and purchased a new Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop. As noted above in my earlier review, the steam mop I received from Amazon was packaged in a plain brown cardboard box, void of any embellishment or product photos. This, of course, led me to believe I might have been sent a repackaged unit by Amazon, perhaps a defective unit that was previously returned. Regardless, the Powerfresh that I received from Amazon NEVER worked properly. Fast forward to today …. the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop that I purchased from Sears (unlike the one from Amazon) was contained inside a very colorful cardboard box, adorned with photos of the product and highly descriptive information. I purchased the unit for $89, and paid an additional $18 for a 2-year replacement warranty. I brought the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop home and assembled it according to the instructions (which is VERY simple). After assembly, I poured fresh distilled water into the reservoir and plugged in the unit. YES! …. The Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop that I purchased from Sears fired right up and within one minute was pumping away steam like an old locomotive! I immediately steam mopped my tile kitchen, tile hallway, and tiled bathrooms with nary a hitch. It worked beautifully and the resulting cleaned floors looked fantastic! Acccordingly, I am now escalating my star-rating from 1 to 5. Yes, it was a frustrating and annoying beginning to my relationship with the Bissell, but the unit that I purchased today worked so well and did such a fantastic job on my floors, I have to give it a max-rating. Would I purchase the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop from Amazon? …. HELL NO …. Would I purchase the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop from a local department store? ….. YES YES YES! At the moment I whole-heartedly recommend the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop; however, it I run into issues in the future I will most certainly provide an update.
