His eventual goal is architectural CAD; currently he is struggling with the trials of living in the country far away from computer stores, other young hackers or would-be hackers, finances, etc.. he currently has a commodore with a cassette backup only; but he is not yet pushing the limits of the critter so it remains quite adequate. Anyway, it would be a swell gesture if persons who know more about VIC's, being fourteen, living in colorado, etc, than I know, or at least than I remember, (having both been fourteen and lived in colorado), would mail me any information that seems pertinent; young stuff interested in correspondence (via dull old paper mail) might email a letter to me to forward, usw. Any offerings will be massively appreciated. Tom Terriffic (and Manfred the Wonder Terminal)
