Re: The C=64 tangent for clarification of hardware limitations

@weirdami

Regarding hardware, you could port Half-Life to the C64, but you'd be bound by the speed of the processor and the limitations of the audio and video subsystems and main system memory. With enough storage, there's nothing that would prevent a port or even a full simulation. The user experience, though, would be quite horrible.

If I was on an AOS4 machine I'd spend all my time in the terminal via ssh connected to a modern machine, probably spending most of my time in emacs writing code for another machine that actually matters while collecting a paycheck.
