I logged time on C64s. The biggest issue was dealing with the standard 40 character rows. You could get software that would create an 80 column screen, but legibility suffered and it wasn't compatible with everything.
I wonder if this can be plugged into something that
isn't a TV, like a standard monitor.
I'm also curious about the 8 bit technology used for cost savings. Offhand, I'd guess something like a Zilog Z80 as the CPU, which makes me wonder what the OS is.
