Yesterday played Barbarian on spectaculator. What a nice emu.

Had to turn off auto loader, auto play/stop and fast loading just to be able to hear sound from the tape. LOL

Refreshing old...

Refreshingly old?

The computer teacher I know (a quite old geezer) has a punchcard code for Pong (at least that's what he claims that is - I still think it's a half shreded electricity bill from the early seventies)

Yes, refreshingly old....

One of the reasons I'm rareLY here is that I'm taking English class. This is my last semester, so it figures that hardest class is in it.

It is interesting that I always wanted to have ZX Spectrum, and now when I compare the games with C64, I can’t understand why?!

zx spectrum had much better isometric games. and when the devs didnt bother with colour or were really suttle with color it had more detailed sprites. just couldent handle colour because they were cheap.
