Yak Man goes Dutch?
Recent admirers of Jeff Minters web page will have heard him babble
endlessly on about a mysterious 'Project X' involving him on the
software side, and Richard Miller, the former Jaguar console designer
with the hardware.
Latest unconfirmed reports suggest it has something to do with the
giant Dutch electronics group Philips (of RGB monitor fame, one of
their products from the late 'eighties is still giving me good service
right this minute!)
This is a tad worrying, as Philips have always tended to be on the
losing side with regard to the computer games entertainment side of
things. Memory recalls a console in the very early days alongside the
Atari VCS golden oldie that withered into obscurity, and who can
forget the Philips CD-movie player thing of more recent times. Well I
have.
We hope 'Project X' has better luck, but on that sort of track
record..
Until next time, seeyaall!!
