You're nothing without your robot car. Nothing!

Hahahah! I remember the exec-64 vaguely. And that's a hilarious advert.

But really, was the C64 even vaguely of the faintest bit of use as a business tool? I mean.. email? spreadsheets? documents? It's not like the '64 had an office package of any kind.. Executive toy, more like.

There were some decent office apps on the c64 eventually. The Plus/4 even had a suite built in...

Cough cough cough.

That wasn't a business app, that was a marketing exercise only. 'Twas tres crapola.

You'd be wanting an Amstrad PCW for business apps, sir.

I wrote an Action Force fanfic on it... I thought I was being well cool.
