Ethan, No, I was just looking for a way to work the NeXT and Amiga into the story because so little is written about them. I was thinking more of a sidebar with information on aquiring software and hardware tips online because they're so hard to find in most dealerships–in that sense they're orphans, but only in that sense. It seems like you really need to know where to look. Part of the problem is that "Orphan" is such a potent word. I certainly hope it makes it gets used in the headline when the article finally appears, *minus* specialized machines like the Amiga and NeXT (g). The continuing popularity of the C-64 is really puzzling to me. I don't know very much about it other than that it was around when I was in high school and was viewed as a game machine. What the story guys, why would anyone want to buy a C-64 now ? –Vic
