Go up one level in this thread


To think, in 2008, I will be able to afford this exact computer, and you folks
will by then think it is a piece of shyte :)

I remember when the commodore 64 was "da bomb." Man, it ran circles around my
vic20, and if i recall had an ok chess program (played around 1600 rated?). Does
anybody still have this program?

I wonder. When was ccc founded..And what computers where being used in the first
posts?

best
Joseph
