It is very conceivable that a Commodore 64 is all you will ever need for 
computing. I have a PC simply because I want to connect to the internet 
at high speeds, and I like playing games, and the C64 graphics don't 
compare. Though I noticed that the C64 SID chip plays music beautifally 
compared to the IBM internal speaker. However, in other aspects, the 
Commodore 64 has all the functions you will ever need. Word processing, 
personal finance, programming, whatever. There are just so many unused 
functions in the new applications that go unused by the average person.
