ScuzzBlog: Diaries May 2018 Entry 8th May 2018: Post: 3 CDTV - Playing the Commodore CDTV : Part III Putting the CDTV to the test was kinda a big let down. The unit fires up and runs smoothly into the play mode and you are given the various options what to do with the CD. Trouble is when you are use to having a more useful, intuitive and customisable user interface you feel like you are always playing what the provider wants you to play with and not actually seriously doing anything useful. I guess in the end I prefer my entertainment either on a computer or via a brain dead TV that just acts as a mini theatre. Suffice to say I got bored pretty quick. No easy way to use the CDTV and none of the functionality of say a hard drive for saving and using what you discover on the disks. The CD also uses valuable memory making some aspects of the unit unplayable. Weird really. That was that... Not an Amiga by the way, even though the external floppy drive does have the words Amiga on it [ the only place ]. Includes track by David J. Pleasance Closer inspection shows that the beige label as shown on the box artwork has been removed and stuck to the inside of the drop down flap. The label states ' BLACK ' Decided to use the unofficial external floppy drive Sorry for the dusty keyboard but this keyboard is in daily service on the A4000d More like Hi-Fi, but I guess that was the plan.
