Jack Tramiel, founder of Commodore, has passed away at the age of 83.
I was never part of the 6502 based crowd, either as an Apple, Atari, or Commodore owner. (My processor was the 6809.)
But I’m certainly willing to concede that the C-64 was a hugely influential machine, and that Mr. Tramiel is owed a debt of gratitude.
Got my start with an Apple IIe in 1984. Moved on to an 8088 chip Zeneith laptop in 1988.
