But playing is the highest form of learning. If Edison had not "played" we would all be sitting in the dark:-)))

Hmm. About all I ever used a Commodore 64 for was to use it to make scripts for a Chyron character generator (the cheapest one they made). Play games??!?! I always thought of computers as tools with which one could get one's work done.

Elite is my (by far) most fav game of all time ... on ZX Spectrum though ... the C64 version was flickering too much.

I do remember using some sort of a paint app on C64 ... forgot what was it called ... Paint64 ... or something like that. 8-bit color and pixels the size of golf balls ... aaahhhh ... good times.

How about in v8, DS Pong gets replaced by DS MULE.  That would be the ultimate new feature to blow away the competition.

I loved my Commodore 64! I used to use one at the station I worked for to  enter election information offline into Vidivote on our Vidifont Graphics  V. And I we had a great time playing Oil Barons, too!

Hey!

 
 
I had a Commode Door 64 and it worked great. We  actually thought we could do a lot with a Commodore!

OK, I admit I have oversimplified things a bit about computers.   But my point was that there still seem to be many issues/conflicts and I had  incorrectly assumed that they had been resolved with the move to DNA and  more dedicated hardware.  I stand corrected.
