I’ve been watching Hak5 on and off since the first episode. What in the world were you doing in Springfield, MO? I live in Springfield and have been to 1984. Cool episode.

Wow! What a great episode. I’m really surprised by this episode because the Hak.5 crew seems way too young to remember any of this stuff.

The 1984 cafe looks fantastic, I hope those guys do well.

I loved the ASCIIfication of the opening and closing credits and the opening music is great. There is something very familiar about it but, I can’t place it.

The BBS brought a tear to my eye. Telnet to bbs.hak5.org was an incredible idea and it’s still going! There were three people logged on when I signed just prior to this post! There’s mail and game doors and file transfers. I was catapulted back in time. The only thing that isn’t totally authentic about it is the speed. My 300 baud modem use to paint one line at a time, taking five or more seconds to draw a screen.

I tip my hat to you. That was a great show! Great concept!

I’m a child of the 80s, so this was very enjoyable. Agree totally that even MAME cabinets just aren’t the same.

Solo? Non tech? Don’t sweat it. I’m sure it’s challenging doing a show of this caliber on your own time, so if you need to scale back now and then, nobody should begrudge you that. Rock on!

Wow. This episode rocked. Sure, it deviated from the regular formula, but it kicked _serious_ ass nonetheless. Pure awesomeness, Darren.

I don’t know what’s happening, But is not the same. There’s not that great interaction you guys had some programs ago!!!
I’ll hope it gets better than worse.
