| Well this is getting way off topic from PMMAIL but you're right about
| the VIC-20 not being around in the 70s. Commodore was still making
| calculators in the mid-70s, the Pet line didn't even come along until
| 1977 -- the VIC-20 was 1980 and the C-64 in 1982. I was always more
| of an Atari 800 type guy myself so I knew the Commodores were a pile of
| @#&!$ anyway.
OOPS! ::BLUSH:: You both are absolutely correct! Time warps seem to
be a problem with folks over.. ahhh.. neber mind.. ;) It was indeed
In '82 when I got the old VIC. I used it until I hit the internet
in '85. However, I don't recall the C-64 being on the shelves in the
early 80s or I would have gotten it! Wonder if its time for a little
Ginkgo Biloba? ::sigh::
Just wanted to acknowledge and thank you for joggin my memory! Will
let this rest now.. sorry for getting so far off topic!
Peace.. *->- Lynlee
