All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

This is the URL for the contiki desktop environment and web browser that can run on VIC-20, C64, and 8-bit Nintendo... And it's named closely to our resident Tiki.

Yeah, people who experiment and write code for ancient systems that others consider to be obsolete must be completely mad... you know, like AGI gamers.

Well as far as I know, good gaming ended with the SVGA era.

I certainly can't agree with that... I guess that good gaming only lives in 2D games...

Because having a 1600mhz p4 with a 64 meg video card with built in 350mhz dac makes me feel big.

I've got Pentium IV 1700 MHz and 128 MB GeForce 4 Titanium with RAM-DAC 2x350 MHz. So I am bigger then you, I guess. ;D
