Ah the good old VIC20! The first computer I ever got my hands on at school and the reason why I ended up doing a career in computing :-) It got me lots of street cred at school as I was the only one who was interested enough to learn how to load and run the games on it (Blitz in particular: can't beat a game that just requires you to press the space bar at the right moment in order to play it, none of that first person shooter malarkey).
