Fingers crossed that the VIC-20 book gets funded. The author takes great hardware photos.

I received my copy of this book last week and wanted to say that it is wonderful. You can really tell that it's a labor of love as the photography and layout of the book are beautiful. I don't own a Vic-20, but I did have a friend who owned one back years ago. Despite not owning one, just reading through the text made me start to really appreciate the machine and even want one. If your into Vic-20, this book should be a no brainer and even if you're not a Vic-20 enthusiast you might end up being one after reading. Great job Giacomo!

I love the Vic but thought the Kickstarter fell short of its goal. Is the book for sale somewhere?

The first campaign with the book available in both English and Italian failed, so it was restarted with just an English edition a little while later, at a slightly lower target. That one was successful.

There's an interview with the author on a recent Floppy Days podcast, fyi.
