You should be making the kids play on that. I hated the tape drives, waiting 40 mins for the game to load, hoping that nothing went wrong in the mean time. Yeah make the kids play on the 64 and slowly progress to better machines as they get older like we did.

but in 20 years the systems will be better anyway, its the same for them as it was for all of us. its just they get better systems to start with.

Manic, i shall have the C64 ready for you to relive it when you come over to WA.
and you will be surprised how quick they load, time as a kid was a lot diff to time as an adult it seems.
