The Vic-20 was OK, at least you can do SOMETHING with it. Play games, code, whatever. I never owned one, but used one at my friends house, including playing with one in the Vice emulator. I've tried worse:

that was crap. The socalled keyboard wore out, so you had to really squeeze your finger really hard in order to get a response. It also came with 1kB RAM and was terribly slow despite its 3.25MHz Z80.
Why that one is not on top of the list is beyond me.
