Franko,
I had a vic 20 briefly in my youth but I threw it in the trash when I got a c64. Useless piece of shit if you asked me then (or now)
except for text games, I never did anything with it.
Maybe CUSA is going to make a new vic-20. It will be a 486 running damn small linux and will be a bit more useful than the original vic-20.
They will spend 10 million of their 30 million dollar advertising budget on it so it will sell 4 units instead of their previous record of 1 computer sold.
:laughing:
My favorite amiga logo is the angular plain one that ral clan just posted... No check marks, no boing balls, just the word is enough when its written so artistically.

Looking back at it though when the VIC20 first came out in 81/82, it really was the start of true home computing. For a brief period all we had back then was the calculator like Z80/81 and when the VIC20 appeared with it's 8 colours & real full size keyboard it blew the socks off everyone...
It was a great wee machine, the first one I learned to write in "Machine Language" as it was called in them days. Too be honest I never did much on it either other than playing a few games (mainly text adventures) but it was the start of bigger things to come...
Just finished during the night restoring two of them to there former glory and have just received in the post 2 16K RAM packs I bought from evilBay for them...
I'd rather use these anyday than something CUSA has to sell...
