  Matt with PowerGlove: Ah, finally.
  ...
  ha ha, great recounting, Matt!It was a pleasure having you visit.It was tough to get enough photos of everything, balanced with playing some of the collection, balanced with simply talking, balanced with any other number of things in only part of a single day.The true tragedy was indeed our limited time together, but that's looking at the glass half empty.Just the fact that we were able to meet at all and spend "quality time" together even though we were both quite exhausted from the week (and Matt no doubt far more so) was something of a miracle in and of itself.And Matt's quite right, any true retrogaming and computing fan knows how unbelievably rare it is to spend time with a kindred spirit who actually understands what all that "junk" is.
  
  Unfortunately, Matt almost didn't make it back home!We thought we planned well for getting Matt to the train at the right time, but by the time we got there we must have just missed the train (probably my fault since we were chatting about this and that in the car)!Luckily, the next train wasn't too long after, but then by the time he would have gotten back to Penn Station (NY), he wouldn't have quite made the scheduled shuttle to LaGuardia airport.Even though Matt called and the shuttle service said it would be no problem for him to be on the next bus, he waited and waited and they never showed!Luckily Matt had the presence of mind to hop in a cab and high-tail it to the airport!When I got a text message that Matt made it to the transfer point in Chicago, both Christina and I breathed a sigh of relief!
  
  As for more coverage of the basement, as soon as I finish getting it organized (I estimate another 8 - 10 hours of work), I'll do a video walkthrough and take some photos as a prelude to do more specific work.As an FYI, while there's still lots of work left to do, Matt and I are in the home stretch on our upcoming history book, which should be completed by the beginning of May.

  Whew. I've been working all day on the Myst chapter of the book.

  Well, for better or worse, it looks like the final name of the full color book Matt and I are furiously working on at the moment will be "Vintage Games: An Insider Look at the History of Grand Theft Auto, Super Mario and the Most Influential Games of All Time".

  Pac-ManPac-ManPac-Man fever!
  ...
  We've made no secret here about the book that Matt Barton and I are presently working on for Focal Press (Elsevier) on some of the most greatest and most influential (that's key) videogames of all time regardless of platform.
  ...
  Matt just finished off his part on Final Fantasy VII, and I just need to do my work on it and convert it to publisher's Word template before getting it off to the tech reviewer.Matt is now diving into the Pac-Man chapter.
  
  By the way, Matt and I are doing our initial work in Google Docs, which is an easy way for us to collaborate from anywhere.Once the text is reasonably settled, meaning both Matt and I have done what we wanted to it, I convert it to the publisher's Word template.After that happens it goes over to the tech reviewer, who provides her comments/corrections, then we fix whatever we deem necessary.Matt and I then work on the images, I insert the captions and image references into the document, then zip the Word document together with a folder containing all the images (this usually works out to a 30 - 60MB file).
  ...
  Matt and I are very excited to be working with Andrew Rollings and Hiive Books, well known for The Commodore 64 Book - 1982 to 199x and The ZX Spectrum Book - 1982 to 199x.
