Oggetto: RE: A moment of silence for the passing of another giant
Yes, GEOS was pretty damned amazing. One can only imagine computing power
today if software were so efficient.
I recall saving money as a kid ('80 or '81) to buy the 16K expansion for my
VIC. PaperMate (word processor for the PET) didn't allow for much text in 3K.
It was $116. Good times!
I still remember reading the COMPUTE! article from the CES where they described
the Amiga Loraine with 4,096 colors. If I recall correctly, they added
something like, "no, that was not a misprint" because no one would have
believed such a crazy number of colors. I must have read that article a
hundred times dreaming of such a machine.

I sold my C64 so I could use the cash towards buying my Amiga. I loved that
Amiga.

LOL
I sold my C64 years ago to a guy who had plans to make it into a HAM radio of
some sort.
