- Quite true, although the converse is also quite true... there are many
- things that can be done with a PC that a C-64 couldn't dream about.
- (Well... maybe it could... but telnet'ing from an Ethernet card on a C-64
- emulating a VT102 doesn't sound like much fun!)

- Of course, there are some games for the 64 that a mere 80286 could never
- pull off, since AT's don't have VICs or SIDs...
