I miss my old Commodore 64.
My uncle has it now. I don't think it's anything but a decoration for his studio, but, still. I'm glad it's in the family. What I really miss is that "Little Computer People" game. Sort of a primitive gigapet. You had a little person in a little house in your computer, and you fed him and played with him and petted him. (Ours was named Julius.) If you neglected him he'd turn green and eventually die. (We never let this happen to Julius.) I have one of those Commodore-64 simulation programs on my Mac, I think, but I could never find the Little Computer People game for it. (I forget the actual name of the game, which might be a factor.) Ah, me. The waters of my geekdom run deep and true. |
