 A Commodore 64 is better than all those inferior little things. :-P
 Commodore 64 user since 1984 and still using a 128D,
 
 Cameron,
 Is the 128D the model with a separate keyboard  CPU?... Looks 
 sort-of-similar to an Amiga 1000?

That's the one. They come in two forms, a European 128D that's all plastic,
has the 1571 internal disk drive on a separate board from the system board,
and has a carrying handle and fan, and the more common American and later
European 128DCR (D Cost Reduced) that has a mostly metal case, a unified
system board, and no handle or fan. Any American 128D you will see is
just about guaranteed to be a DCR.

  A computer is a computer, and any computer is better
  than no computer, ... unless it is a Commodore, ... or a PC JR., or a
  CPM,... a 286 or ... well ... ah forget about it.

No, just 'a' Cameron Kaiser, we come in six packs. ;-) Actually, I know
of at least two other unrelated Cameron Kaisers on the Net, but they haven't
horned in on my C64 territory yet. :-P

 I have Paint and Pony and Freddie The Fish on my Mac 6214 at school 
 and the kids love playing with it, while I am combing out their hair 
 of head lice.  A computer is a computer, and any computer is better 
 than no computer, ... unless it is a Commodore, ... or a PC JR., or a 
 CPM,... a 286 or ... well ... ah forget about it.

I just (re)joined this list but I used to read some CBM list where you were
a big contributor.  I saw your name yesterday and wondered... but now I
know.  It made me sick when they put the C64 in the same class as a 286.

I'm duing some setup work at a high school auditoium tommorrow.  I'm gonna
use a C64 to test out the video projecter.  Mmmm... psychadelic demo
graphics on a 30 foot wide screen, with that SID sound pumping through the
auditorium's huge speakers... delightful!  *evil laugh*
