Vic-20 on a 10 Worst List

[Plaz]

The Vic-20 was crummy, but I don't think it deserves to be in the worst 10. Where's the sinclair, Colt PC10, plus 4, the 80186 PC clone (yup I worked on those) and especially the tandy "color computer I"? The tandy also came with 4K mem, but had ever poorer support than the Vic. Both the Vic and tandy could get more memory installed BTW. I would probably put Vic some where around 20-25th worst.

Around 1984 I also built a 20k expansion out of spare parts from work for my Vic to make it more use-able. But the 20 charater display was really it's weakest point. I'd have to say that's probably why it wound up in this guys worst 10. At the time I much prefered a pixelated monocrome 80 char displays over what the Vic had. Sure some of the games were OK, but I got more fun out of my Atari 2600 and quarters at the arcade than the Vic.
