Ohh yeah! It's wonderful. I bought my Plussy 30000 Forint (ca. 200 USD). I call the telepone number.... happy

This didn't play for me either at home or at work. Does anyone have an alternative link (perhaps it's up on YouTube, or someone managed to download it)?

Sorry about that. I have no idea why it doesn't play for you.

That was one awesome, thoroughly enjoyable retro trip! Look how happy they were with their Plus/4, everyone is all smiles! My favorite moment is at 30 seconds, when the lady does her fast one-fingered typing-impression. happy

Thanks for posting the YouTube link!

My favorite moment was the guy viewing the chart. The chart-display begins at the lower left corner and goes straight up to the upper-right corner. The guy nods in agreement, like: "we're facing a prosperous future! we all will be rich because i bought this little magic computer thing here..."

 Re: Another USA Plus/4 TV Commercial.

all the plusi commercials about these sh***y built in programs.. i remember i tried it once, it was rubbish. later i removed the chips with this crap happy

i think there was a better formula but unfortunately commodore missed it: put jack attack, kikstart and icicle works and whatever cool games in the rom's ..and fastloader! happy

Putting business-software in the +4 wasn't such a bad idea. if only the software wasn't such an abysmal crap. I was working a lot with Script/Plus for example - a really brilliant word-processor. If they would've put that one on the ROM, it would've been a cool bundle.

I agree. Even if they only put one or two really GOOD programs in there, it would have been preferable. I mean, has anyone even tried to use the built in graphics software? ugh!
