Rediscovered the autographs I got when I was 12 from Patrick Norton and Martin Sargent of TechTV's "The Screen Savers", circa 2002.

I got this when they came to Houston for a small convention. They hosted a fun Q&A panel.

I remember there being a lot of PCs at the convention playing (I think) Unreal Tournament 2003.

Share around, if you must!

Does anyone know of any ZDTV/TechTV/G4 archives? I'm aware of the uploads on Archive.org and the TechTV bulk torrent.

I know there's people who collect this stuff, but I'm not looking to download re-encoded videos from YouTube or BitChute. Would like the stuff to be as raw as they can be.

Does anyone have any tapes they personally digitized? Does anyone have tapes they would even be willing to ship out to be digitized? Any DVR or other off-air recordings? Any of those old ASF files they used to provide on the website?

Hell, I'd even be willing to preserve the international version of GameSpot TV that aired on YTV (in Canada) and Fox Kids' Cyberzone block (in Australia.)

Sometime in 2000 or 2001, I called into The Screen Savers and actually got to speak to Leo Laporte and Patrick Norton live! I've been scouring the internet trying to find the episode but came up empty.😞

The question I had was about 56k modems and ISPs. I had recorded it but seemed to have lost the tape. Maybe one day someone will upload it but I'm not giving up! :ablobblewobble:
