@martin I wanted it also, but the cool kids at school told me to get a C64. 😎

@daputz It's a neat little machine. But I didn't really appreciate it at that time. In my eyes my parents had made a terrible mistake. Everybody had a C64. How was I supposed to get any software? A year or two later I finally got my C64

@martin @daputz
To be honest, I think they did make a terrible mistake 😅
The C64 was still better than than the Plus4 despite being older.
I had an Oric-1 which was also a terrible mistake but it was the best we could afford.
One good thing about not having much software was the incentive to make my own. Turned out I really loved to code!

@Truck @martin @daputz oh just to add, yup totally amazing what folks like Defence Force and the sadly gone Twilighte did on Oric. If titles like Oricium and Stormlord would have been available for my little machine back in the early 80s, the Oric story might have been very different!
