I had a C-64 that I bought back in the early 80s, with babysitting money. I also got me a cassette "disk" drive, to save info on, and later, when I was in high school, I graduated to a floppy drive. I used that puppy all the way through college, as a word processer for all my papers, and, occasionally, for playing games. About midway through my senior year, though, I started using the university's computer labs, because I was taking courses that required me to use certain programs not available on my beloved machine. After I finished school, I donated it to Goodwill, and eventually upgraded to a system I could get on the Intarwebs with, but I've always remembered my C-64 fondly.

I'm not the only one.
