I recently read that Commodore Australia has sold 10,000 C64s to China,
with another order of 30,000 excepted in a month.  They are going to be

	if(War(America, Iraq)=TRUE) then
	begin
		dispose(millions_of_innocent_people);
		dispose(millions_of_soldiers);
		dispose(most_of_kuwait)
	end

	begin

	end;
