No, but I like the fact that the link mentions the Commodore Amiga. What a white elephant that was. (Though not as much as the Commodore 128, which I had for a while. About the only game specifically written for it was The Rocky Horror Show, which was shit. )
Favourite Computer Game? Page 3

Yeah but Doomdarks Revenge written for the Commodore came with a really beautifully read audio novella.

Loser.
My condolescences. Though the 128 did have a built-in piece of software which allowed you to design your own "sprites" (in up to 4 colours!). Though no software to actually do much with them after.

Commodore 64s were for people who couldn't handle real computers. The Macs of their day.

Ah bless but you were young and foolish back then
Commodores are proper old school. Spectrums were for posers.
Do you guys still have these? I don't remember these ones at all. I still play my nes from time to time though.
It's always wise to get good advice before making a purchasing decision.

When you were 5!? Ah, little rich kid, were you? Probably had a complete home and away replica football kit and everything, didn't you? Eh? Eh?

I would've if I'd liked football Erm, Doctor?
But I wasn't an C64 kid. I was always correct.

Still have a ZX Spectrum with built in tape deck(!) but it doesn't work or it didn't last time I tried anyway.
Also have a Snes, which I occasionally setup and play Mario on
