I am surprised we're still discussing about this bogus project with
no potential application nor any use.

WTF? Are you joking?

No. You just didn't get what I meant. The "project" I am talking about is
the Atari emulation on the C16. Absolutely useless and, worse, completely
bogus.

Now go to http://plus4.emucamp.com, watch some of the demos and try to
repeat there what you just wrote!1!1 :D

I have been an happy Plus/4 years for over 10 years, now. I honestly don't
give a *** about demos, but I do enjoy the huge amount of quality
applications that do exist for the CBM 264 line.

C16 and plussy rox. Some stuff are even impossibile to do on C64.

To each its own. I don't know what you're talking about here, though.
Probably you're talking about the extra colours the TED brings in.

Well C16 has less than 16k ram available and +4 is preferable, but
hey, we're talking about machines were code optimizations DO COUNT.

Code optimization counts in the 8086, 80386, Pentium etc. world too... While
it was a curse to write "mov ax,0" back in the day, and nowadays is
overlooked because of the Ghz race, writing crappy code still sucks
regardless.
