Favorite Vintage Computing YouTube channels/blogs
With COVID I know many of us have had much more downtime. Post your favorite vintage computing themed channels here!

I, for one, recently found this gem, Adrian's Digital basement https://www.youtube.com/user/craig1black . Mostly C64 and Apple focused, but I really enjoy the deep dives into all aspects of vintage hardware.

I'm also a big fan of Pizza Box Computer https://blog.pizzabox.computer/ . But sadly there hasn't been much new content.

Oh, curiousmarc is awesome. Like many I was dragged in by the divide by zero video. The recent teletype Linux terminal bodge was very cool.

Funny story about Adrian's Digital Basement: I was planning to call my youtube channel about SGIs "Adrian Builds Dinosaurs". Then I found his channel, and was like "nope".

Just to mention, Gamers Nexus did a few videos on SGIs that Ian Mapleson sent them about a year ago. Somehow they managed to assemble an O2 with no case and it didn't break.
