Apparently it's the Commodore 64. Police in Austria believe the weirdo who kidnapped that girl for eight years or so then threw himself in front of a train hid some important information on his old Commodore and they're having a hell of a time getting it out. Imagine what would happen if terrorists got their hands on this technology. God help us if they get their hands on a VIC 20.

My best friend had a 64 when we were kids. Running a program on that thing was akin to a voodoo ritual--stand on one leg, rub your stomach, sacrifice a chicken and hit enter.

Lets hope any security camera footage isn't on Betamax

My first PC was a Commodore 64/128 (it was actually three operating systems in one because IIRC there was one for connecting online)
starting a program on it was not hard at all. load "digdug",8,1

My friend had a Vic 20, we'd play Pacman (actually it was called Jelly Monsters to avoid copyright issues) from the tape drive. He later upgraded to a beautiful beige 64. Ah, the technology!
