Maybe someone else had one of these antiques? In another post, I mistakenly told ila my “first PC” was a C64 like his. In fact he was way more advanced than me.

Mine actually was a lowly “VIC-20” my mom picked up on sale at K-Mart or something.

Today it resides in a landfill somewhere North of Detroit.
The VIC-20 manual. That kid would be at least a few years older than me. You know he’s saying: “Dad, let’s go back to the pictures you were looking at before Mom walked in.”
Looks like someone tried to bring one into the “21st Century.” Nice try but why isn’t anything showing up on the screen?
“Deceptive Advertising” and technology has been around since… well… forever!

This was a “text based” game anyway. So there wasn’t even a poorly digitized version of her to beat off too…

Today it’s called “clickbait.”
