Nostalgy Forum
How about creating a forum for nostalgy and retro talk??
Were users can talk about old computers and how it was in the past. |

Its a nice idea, but I dont think it warrants a forum as the demand for this would not be high, we already have alot of forums as it is. you could use the off topic for this ....

When computers cost an arm and a leg. $2000 USD for a rig with the latest P4 1.5 GHz
 I just read it from some site a few minutes ago. |

What is the worth of my C64 ?
I bought one with diskdrive and disk for EUR 11,- last year! I like to play games like winter-, world-, and summer- games I+II with my friends, first I played this games games in 1987, wow, that was great ! In 1988 I got my Amiga 500 with 7,14Mhz, 512KByte of RAM, that was amazing ! 4096 colors, a resolution up to 640x512 interlaced, great sound and all passiv cooled without noise ! Hmmm.... I think I have to buy one, now! See you ! DTC |

Whaver happened to the HOME computer?
How did some ridiculously priced piece of junk with a 4.77MHz 8088 (8/16 bit CPU) - mutate into the monsters that dominate the world now, at the expense of far more elegant machines. Apple blew it! If they'd been prepared to licence and partner at reasonable prices, they'd be looking at a VERY different picture. |
