I've had both... C64 and Amiga 500.
I actually purchased a kit to allow it to run AmigaOS and DOS (machine ended up with 2 BIOS).

I spent EONS trying to figure that game out! (Having never watched the shows or read the book, I had nothing to go on.) Took me like two weeks just to get past the bulldozer without getting hit in the head with a damn brick.

Can't say I dabbled with the 64 but I did have the 128. It was the first pc I ever got onto the internet with. Anyone remember cp/m too?

Can you say....

Elite
M.U.L.E.
Paradroid
Delta
Racing Destruction Set
Raid over Bungling Bay
Ghosts N Goblins
International Karate
The Last Ninja
Wizball

Games may have better graphics these days.... but they aren't better then these (and many other) Classics!

The C-64 kicked (and still) kicks ass.
