hmmm, a video player for 800xl...
I think I'm going to hit up google and find out more.

was it in some kind of standard format, or a hand-encoded job?

Scroll down, you'll see a blue title bar above it. I really doubt it's a standard format as you're running the video on a low power system, poerticularly CPU and graphics.

Even though I know he's dutch, and I've seen pictures of him, but I always imagine Mr. Atari as a skinny asian guy.
