Jesus freakin' H. CHRIST! Now that you're all paying attention, please read and memorize: They haven't (yet) killed the C64. Commodore is still filling orders. Any dealer who says they can't get them is either lying or dealing with a distributor that has decided to drop the line. At World of Commodore & Amiga in Toronto, Fred Bowen mentioned that he had just made an engineering change to the C64 so that it would use one ROM in stead of two... why make changes (that cost $$$) unless you plan to maintain production and save in the long term?!? -- UUCP: watmath!xenitec!zswamp!root | 602-66 Mooregate Crescent Internet: root@zswamp.fidonet.org | Kitchener, Ontario FidoNet: SYSOP, 1:221/171 | N2M 5E6 CANADA Data: (519) 742-8939 | (519) 741-9553 The mile is traversed not by a single leap, but by a procession of coherent steps; those who insist on making the trip in a single element will be failing long after you and I have discovered new worlds. -- me
