The 8-Bit Guy (formerly The iBook Guy) is a YouTuber who does videos on technology, mostly on various old tech. However, as of recently his channel is in decline and as such David has been forced to take a job at a local arcade venue as an arcade tech to make ends meet.[1]

Why He's Amazing

  1. He used to do some great videos on iBooks.
  2. He does show some new products made for old devices.
  3. He does some good repairs on old computers and gets them working and back to their original shape.
  4. He does some great videos on how stuff works, including music, graphics, and cartridges of old systems.
  5. He even does some great product reviews of new products for old computers.
  6. He made good games for the Commodore 64 in his series Planet X, which includes Planet X1, Planet X2, and Planet X3.
  7. Unlike other YouTubers who push their viewers to support them on Patreon, he does not push it as he is content with people just watching his videos.
  8. He will make a new computer called Commander X16, which looks pretty fun.

The Only Bad Quality

  1. He once destroyed a rare computer while attempting a rushed repair, which he admitted, but it led to him being a victim of cancel culture. It wasn't as bad as What's Inside, destroying rare and expensive items only to see what's inside them.

Trivia

  1. His real name is David Murry.
  2. To earn extra money David also works a part time as an arcade tech at the Time Rift Arcade in Bedford, TX.[1]
  3. He gets asked by people who want a free laptop from him because he has a ton of them, as he compares that to going to Best Buy to ask for a free laptop because they have a whole store of them.
  4. He has another channel called 8-Bit Keys which also uploads music to SoundCloud. He refers to this channel as the sister channel. This one is not as active as his main channel.
  5. As mentioned in reason one on why he's amazing, he started his channel off doing videos on iBooks. His first video was introducing himself and the fact that his channel was, at the time, all about iBooks.
  6. He also sells on eBay. His eBay name is adric22.
  7. On one of his 8-bit unboxing videos, he got a package that said The iBook Guy and thought it got lost in time, although he was probably joking.
  8. He has three more channels that not many people know, including an airgun channel called awesomeairguns, TheBullionChannel, a channel about coins, and Cranial Pasta which contains various contents. All these channels are abandoned.
