Personally from my perspective, that is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I know I am a nerd.

Sigh...Christmas 1983, I surely must have been extra good the previous year.

Santa was kind enough to bring me a Commodore 64, 14 inch colour screen, computer desk & 4 games comprising of LaserZone, Galaxions, Falcon Patrol & Blue Max.

Happy misty memories from the golden age of home computers.

That is an awesome picture, it reminds me so much of my childhood. I got my C64 in the same year with hungry horice and galaxians.

Super pic, thanks so much.
