- >You mean C= has stopped making C-64s? Or that they're going to?
-
- They haven't stopped. They're pouring hundreds of thousands of them
- per year into the newly free countries of Eastern Europe. I'll leave it
- up to the reader to decide whether this is a good or a bad thing... :-)
-
- Speaking of C-64's, there was a list I saw on The Net a while ago that had
- about 55 reasons why the 64 was better than a PClone. Anyone have this?
- I recall that Reason #1 was: "PClones cost over a thousand dollars, while
- the Commodore 64 is free -- you probably already have one in your attic!"
-
- -- Mark, who still fires up his old C128 once in a while to play
- Impossible Mission, and his VIC-20 to play Radar Rat Race...

- "But Dr. Radium, was that necessary?" "Rez, _everything_ I do is necessary."
