   Won in what sense?  Seen any articles on C64 programs in many computer
   mags lately?  The C64 has perhaps survived as a niche item with a small
   group of dedicated users, but I can't persuade myself that that is
   "winning."

He said "won", not "winning".  The 8-bit "battle" is long since
over..... only the Nintendo and XT clones remain and they're starting
to fade.  As will the 16-bit systems (like CD-I and CDTV) eventually.

No more bars!  No more cages!  Just rollerskating, disco music, and
the occasional light show....
