I've heard of it, but never seen one.

Well... I made a lot more money between 1982 and 1985 with the C-64
than I did programming for the Apple ][ or any other "home" computer,
so I know where my loyalties lie... the PET and the C-64 were what got
me warmed up for the big toys (32-bits and up...) As an Amiga owner
from way back, I understand the pain of marginalization, but time
marches on and it brings cool stuff with it.
