04.08.2021 - Worst 8-Bit Book Club Book Ever? The Black Book of C-128 - new Video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
For this month's Book Club video, we look at the worst Commodore-related book in my collection: The Black Book of C-128, by Robert H. & Dell Taylor. Claiming to be a vast, authoritative reference, it's actually riddled with errors, unnecessary commas, and sometimes entirely fabricated "facts". We all make mistakes, and typically I'd go easier on it, but this book's advertising campaign was quite aggressive, claiming to be "the best reference manual on the market" and having "not one wasted page" unlike other publisher's books that would tell you "how to un-pack the C-128" and waste "ten pages on what the keys are for".
