LGR is one of my favourite channels on YouTube (along with Captain Disillusion and Techmoan). Technically informative and entertaining. He's remarkably consistent in style and content, but not in a bad way. His Tech Tales series is a fantastic look at the rise and fall of various tech companies, and his reviews of old computing devices are loads of fun. That video is where I learned that Turbo buttons are in fact the opposite - they lower performance for compatibility with older software.

As a fan of LGR and Techmoan I'll definitely be checking out Captain Disillusion, thanks for the recommendation. Just for the benefit of anyone looking at this list and looking for similar YouTube recommendations, I wanted to throw The 8-Bit Guy (restoring old hardware), Nostalgia Nerd (general vintage computing/gaming with a British twist), Larry Bundy Jr (gaming history), MetalJesusRocks (game collecting and history), and Modern Vintage Gamer (he was heavily involved in the Xbox / Xbox 360 homebrew and modding scene) into the mix.
