I know that. When people asked if i had a PC, i said yes, it was a C64. I got
grilled for that, people called me names, like "idiot", "psychotic", etc. I
dunno
what humans want, but i know they wanted me to stop referring to my
definitely personal C64 as a personal computer. So i did. Now i haveto go
back to calling it a PC? At what point do i win this?
